Pretty much every college sport that isn't football or basketball gets the shaft, since they're the only two that are considered thr revenue drivers. Baseball gets some love but very little in comparison. All the other sports, the best coverage is on niche websites.

And in fairness, our readers seem to care a lot more about the two revenue sports, too ... which is why they get more coverage. Supply/demand, newspaper style.

'Crap' is fine. 'Holy' believe it or not is more borderline around here, damn religious right nuts.

Actually it hasn't been published yet, that was a screenshot of my layout software. It will be published in about three hours LOL.

And yes, it is more borderline for us to publish 'Holy' in that reference than 'crap' I kid you not.

Also, my story will be running in the Des Moines Register, too (on Wednesday) ... which is pretty cool to me.

So in ANY of your articles written over the years, have you ever made a WW or poker reference?
