Initial RPI is out and M is 22. Haylie Wagner checks in at 33 in ERA (1.28), second in the Big Ten behind Minnesota's top pitcher, who is number six nationally with a .71ERA.
Edit: For anyone interested in catching the M/BGSU game tomorrow, megangoblue should have a preview tonight. I think it's going to be pretty similar to before, but I might do some grunt work for her so she knows a little more about M's ins and outs. It also might be a diary on my suggestion, I have a feeling the diary board might be a better option, so we'll see if she has 200 words that agree.
Something about these posts is really creepy.
M athletes won awards, it was announced. What am I (and supposedly most people who viewed the thread and didn't make that comment) missing?
Primarily, the fact that only first names are used in the title.
I agree that's not the best way to identify athletes. I use last names unless it's a name you never hear, e.g. Charles Woodson or Woodson, but Denard is fine.
That said, there are plenty of other topics that casually use names that aren't creepy.
And few overlapping names equals use of first names. Enough said, get on board!
classify it as creepy it is kind of.....annoying - at least in the title. Once the player's full name has been established it's not quite as noticeable if first names only are used in the article.
To be fair, you ARE most of the people who view these threads.
Except you, of course. Generally speaking, if you don't like a topic, don't click it. Just some friendly advice since you seem so disturbed by their existence.
Sundays game vs. Penn State a 6-0 victory is currently airing on BTN. One of Wagner's three victories this past weekend. It's one of the StudentU games so its not great, but still a better production than a lot of the other Big Ten schools
Getting to watch these games is one of the big pluses of the BTN. I'm recording it so I can watch after work.
