MiSTing, to those who watch Mystery Science Theatre 3000), it is very
tempting to make the author look like an idiot at any given interval. But
did it not occur to you that the author maybe meant to write sixty minutes,
here? Picking at an error like this and ignoring all but the obvious
solution (that the writer probably meant to write minutes, not hours) just
makes it look like you're having a hard time coming up with things to pick
at.

Actually, it's not a mistake. The veep was simply joking. He's annoyed
by the coach's inappropriate use of military time and is being a
smartass by twisting the concept of so many "hundred hours" as if it
meant what it literally says.
