It can be written 3 2 + 4 2 = 5 2. More generally, one can write that a number squared (multiplied by itself) plus a second number squared equals a third number squared. Now the inquisitive are hooked like rubes in three-card monte....

At least a month later than they should be in both cases if you ask me. So often, in life in general and in the NFL in particular, we talk about a transaction or decision being a "win-win," meaning both parties involved are benefiting and getting something out of the deal. The recent trade of troubled wide receiver Mike Williams from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the Buffalo Bills appears to be an example of that....
