there simply aren't as many "blond-haired, blue-eyed"

It only takes one. I went to Europe last year with a friend. We are both blond haired and blue eyed. My hair is turning gray--two middle-age women. We seemed to hit every profile of every airport we went to. Milan, Rome, Amsterdam. And you know what? We didn't care. We took the time to go through extra searches and questionings. We figured out several of the reasons in retrospect. Something about our tickets triggered our almost not being allowed onto the plane in Milan and being put on some list. We'll never know why. But we returned home safely.

Correct. But that doesn't mean that every "one" is equally likely. Why not match the defense with the obvious, repeated, historically known offense?

When your team is playing against the Miami Heat, you'd better plan to double or triple-team Shaq. You know it going in. Ignoring the obvious, proven threat is simply suicide.
