Statisticians and engineers demonstrate that the results of a coin toss may not be completely random. Wow - next you're going to tell me the same is true about soccer games, which are always 0-0, and then settled by a shoot out. Speaking of soccer, I recently read a trivia question that I couldn't answer. Is soccer the only sport where the results of a tie are broken by playing an entirely different game? (A shoot-out is equivalent to settling a tied golf tournament with a best of five ball putting contest.)
