LOL. This article is actually pretty interesting. Who knew that the Coriolis effect led the Bengals to win on Nugents winning bank shot field goal?

"Noted astrophysicist, author and TV personality Neil deGrasse Tyson thinks it may have. In a series of tweets posted after the Bengals’ incredible comeback overtime win from a 17-point deficit, Tyson wrote that the Earth’s rotation may have helped steer the game-winning field goal between the posts."
