The O-Zone

Relates to a Q&A section on a sports team’s website, staffed by a long-serving, under appreciated writer who engages in witty wordplay, banter and (occasionally) insightful commentary on said sports team.

“Dude, do you read the O-Zone?”

“Do I? The K.O.A.F’s interesting comments are, interesting!”
