Reliant Stadium reminds me more of a building fit for MIB III with all its glass windows, and I can’t say that I’m planning on trying to catch a live game when I go home this year.

Supermarket tabloids are the real news sources for the MiB (quips Jones: "you can read the New York Times if you like, they sometimes get it right").
