Much the way Marxist determinism was marshaled in the past to explain practically everything, an "evolutionary advantage" is now sought. Endless grant money seems to be available and journalists are eager to report the research speculations as "science." I am collecting a file of such stories.

So here I am trying to figure out how a study might be concocted to explain this moving account of a sports team that showed great conscience and panache. Surely someone can get a government grant to find a Darwinian answer to replace the common sense one.
