[QUOTE="Biggsly, post: 1700948, member: 11136"] [url]http://www.thepostgame.com/blog/travelers-check/201201/joe-biden-tells-san-francisco-crowd-giants-are-headed-super-bowl[/url] Joe Biden surely has heard the advice of his Vice Presidential predecessor Hubert Humphrey (1965-69), but was reminded, as all politicians occasionally are, that "The right to be heard does not automatically include the right to be taken seriously," on Wednesday. Speaking to a crowd in San Francisco during a fundraiser speech, Biden confused the 49ers and New York Giants in a most untimely fashion. "The Giants [are] on their way to the Super Bowl," Biden said. This, of course, promptly drew a chorus of boos from the crowd. Biden pulled one of the quicker u-turns in political history, clarifying that the local baseball team's name had got stuck in his head, and he confused the football team name for the baseball team name. He had not meant to guarantee a New York Giants berth. Ah, backtracking and scattered clarification, staples of any polished politician's bag of tricks. [/QUOTE]
