  • Re: RPI 2011 Recruit Thread

    Sioux City defeated Dubuque 4-2 last evening. I haven't seen a box score.

      FD: It is only a statistic that I kept bringing up starting a couple of years ago. I felt that there was a diference when a player scored a lot on a team that did not score much as opposed to a player who scored a lot on a team that had an abundance of scorers. It is far easier to accumulate stats especially assists, when you are on a high scoring team. JL seems to be involved in a very high percentage of the scoring for Cornwall the past 2 years so I started keeping track. RB and I have been alternately mentioning the % after each game.

        Your statement would be fine EXCEPT they chose to say "who declined to attend RPI this year". If they had ignored that fact, you're right, it wouldn't be bad (even if entirely non-thorough) journalism to not clarify his plans. But if the reporter is going to bring up a fact that is now irrelevant at best and in reality severely misleading, he has an obligation to do the digging and write an accurate piece.

          Please correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't the SF's last statement on the subject something to the effect of the profound "either he will be going to RPI or he won't in 2011"?

            Here's an article from the Dubuque newspaper:

            No mention of Curadi.

                SO BRO's line is thus 0-0-0-0-0. When is the next game?

                  Thanks K - its good to know that I'm not completely crazy, someone shares my view...(while I'd never put words in his mouth, I'm fairly certain RB is of like mind on this..)

                      The reporter's job is not to just "report scores"...any chimpanzee can download a boxscore. Journalists - the self respecting ones at least - detail the key plays and turning points, the scoring AND, if they haven't eaten too much free press box pizza, actually make an effort to provide the reader with some insight about the team they are covering, its players and coaches.

                          They're getting their S**T together slowly...apparently they've either added a CR game or changed it...I'm guessing they added a home game for Thursday since CR is close by...

                            Sadly, that is correct.

                                He's got his priorities in order, that is, unless he's driving the bus.
