I confess the first time I saw the headline, I thought “I don’t care who won, and I certainly don’t care about a rumor about who won.” Then I happened to see a news report on TV about it, but my only thought was “so the German Shepherd actually ended up winning it.” When I saw the headline again, the light bulb finally clicked on.
