Exactly... like about a dozen run on sentences with no point in sight. He makes David Foster Wallace's use of punctuation seem excessive.

If your not sure then why post. Tiller is from San Antonio, and like most your posts, is uninformed. Head on back to the Squawk boards if you want to keep posting dribble.

Since I have a DVR, I rewind the game a little and try and get it to sync with the web cast. The only problem I have is when the radio is ahead of the TV. It is a little weird hearing what happened and then seeing it happen. Especially with basketball.

Yeah I thought they were bad one sided and mistake riddled until I watched CBS college football scoreboard or w/e and the called us the hawkeyes twice until they finally corrected themselves. How are you that dumb with Iowa sports teams. Hawkeyes in big 10, Cyclones in big 12. Is it that hard to get ppl to do basic research to understand college football. I know ppl make mistakes but ppl seem to do it way too frequently. I guarantee I know more about college football than a lot of the guys and teams, I know that Middle Tennessee State are the Blue Raiders and the Trojans are from USC as well as Troy. Either learn the name our the team your reporting on or don't report it. It's just pathetically disrespectful.
