If you like art museums, or just pretty pictures, go to the Salvador Dali museum in St. Pete.

44rulesParticipantFrench beat Austria in 1809. Forget the name of the war, but the climactic fight was the Battle of Wagram, Napoleon’s last victory. Yes, I know Nappy was a Corsican, but they were French troops.

44rulesParticipantI truly didn’t mean it as a bucket of cold water, and I’m sorry if it came across that way. I’m still feeling the warm glow of Saturday – and will for a while. It’s just that Jacoby has been weak on deep throws for much of this year. He didn’t need to throw deep Saturday since he ran right over Unlimited Number of Chokes-Cheatham Hill, but he’s unlikely to run for 160 a game in the NFL.

44rulesParticipantDon’t want to take anything away from my love of Jacoby’s performance and all things Pack, but he needs to improve in the passing department to be a legit pro prospect.

44rulesParticipantBill, I love the Copts too. Great history, suffered much ppersecution, even more than watching Pack basketball the last 25 years. Glad we won.

44rulesParticipantA beauty from the DTH: A master lecturer in the philosophy department, she (Boxill) taught a long-standing class on sports ethics and brought in regular guest speakers like menβs basketball coach Dean Smith.

44rulesParticipantBob Lee would be easier to follow if he could write in English and string thoughts together. Of course, the worst writers I ever had to train in my entire life were graduates of the UNC and UGA schools of journalism. The one from UNC never learned to write, ever.

44rulesParticipantYeah, not going to watch the video either. I’m at work, so the noise isn’t cool for watching videos. However, I was in the Technician offices when the reporter came back from the game with the Shack quote. I think it was a game against Maryland.

44rulesParticipantGrey, I wasn’t offended, just amused. π
Actually, the good headline writers, and what you really should strive for (at least in the old days), accurately encapsulated the meaning of the story in as few words as possible. Yes, you want the reader to read the story, and some stories are so boring that no amount of headline jazzing up can save them. But at least at the places I worked, there wasn’t an effort to sensationalize. Unlike big national publications, local and community paper people lived and worked in those communities and had to face the public they wrote about. That paradigm has almost gone out the window now.
Now at tabloid papers, mags and the like, sensationalism always has been the “in” thing.

44rulesParticipantGrey, I spent a lot of my career writing headlines. Didn’t get paid well enough to be called a whore. More like a skank.

10/24/2014 at 9:21 AM in reply to: EXPERT: FALLOUT FROM NCAA SCANDAL COULD HURT UNC IN MAJOR WAYS #5981744rulesParticipantWould love it if it came true. But until something happens, all I expect are crickets. Some great lines in this:
“Schemed, long-term, deliberate,” said Gurney.
Still, Gurney said what happened at Carolina over 18 years trumps it all
“The worst case in the history,” Gurney said. “There is nothing that even comes close to the level and the magnitude of this case.”The one place Gurney took issue with Wainstein was his relative absolution of Roy Williams and what he says he knew about the sham classes.
“That kind of defies logic to me, and I think the NCAA will take a long look at that issue,” he said.
The NCAA can take a very different view of Williams’ culpability. Their new rules state that a head coach is responsible either way.
When asked if Williams is out of the woods in Gurney’s mind, he replied, “Not by a long shot.”Communism is not love. Communism is a hammer which we use to crush the enemy. Mao Zedong
44rulesParticipantRivers’ second pick was bad. On the first one, receiver fell down at the break and then when he got up, just stood there instead of going toward the ball.

44rulesParticipantHey Russkie, looking at your post and seeing what the hours get reduced to, I kind of think maybe the NCAA allows too much practice time for most folks to be real “student-athletes.” 20 hours over five days is four hours a day. Add in gametime and pregame/postgame meetings, suiting up, travel, and wow. There’s not much time even if a kid really wants to go to class.

44rulesParticipantHey, I just scored exclusive behind the scenes interviews with Coach Dean Schnozz and Huckleberry Roy. Here’s a clip:

44rulesParticipantHey 87, having never followed anybody on Twitter or paid much attention to ESPN talking heads, I’m curious as to what Dookie V’s take was on Thug Hairston.

44rulesParticipantMorally, ethically and theologically, I oppose schadenfreude. But since I was at State during the V persecution, I shall make an exception. Plus, I hate everything University of No Class.

44rulesParticipantLove everything in the post. But I still had to laugh at SEC and culture in the same sentence. π
