I'm not sure I would care very much if the Detroit Tigers or Texas Rangers pitched a combined no-no last night, but isn't it more than a bit absurd to crap on something that has happened 16 times in baseball history?

Yeah, it's pretty absurd. One might even call it condescending.
Yes, it's more meaningful having one guy do it...but having 5 different guys pitching lights out for 9 innings, has to be some sort of statistical miracle itself.
