Quote from Ted in Monday Night Football
Future Ted: [v.o.] As the day began, none of us had any idea how hard it would be to go nine hours without hearing the outcome of the Super Bowl. I decided to work from home to avoid contamination by the outside world. Barney: [enters] Hey, take this key and swallow it. Ted: What? No. Barney: Come on, Ted, you eat salads. It'll be out by game time. Ted: Lots more, no. Barney: I'm not messing around, Theodore. I've got a lot of money riding on this game. If I don't handcuff myself to this radiator, I'll check the score. Please take the key. Ted: Fine. But only because you didn't think through a bathroom plan and I think that's funny.
