johnnyzip84 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Nice article by Gaffney again, this one on the "Nitro Net Nuker" BJ Link Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 I've spent a lot of time over the past 10 years beating on the local papers for their shoddy-to-invisible coverage of Zips Athletics. So it is only fair that I give a little praise when someone does something well. Nice feature by Tom Gaffney. He's done several lately, and I've learned a lot from every one of them.Nice job, Tom. Keep up the great work! Quote
Dr Z Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Hats off to Rick, this time somebody smacked an Akron coach in a good way. ''It really was (assistant coach) Ricky McFadden that kind of smacked me in the face and said, 'Coach, what are we doing? The guy is killing us in practice,' '' said Dambrot Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Elton Alexander seems to be matching Tom Gaffney story for story. His most recent is on the McKnights:http://www.cleveland.com/sports/college/in...akrons_mck.html Quote
Zip Watcher Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 I have to echo Rasor's comments in today's entries.It's GREAT to have 2 beat writers following the Zips. And having the weekly detail (not game) story in both papers has been nice. Gaffney seems to be pumping out 2 stories per game. A lead up and then the game wrap. As we climb the mountain .. it will continue to help. When the Zips win a big game .. Elton's stuff is more likely to find it's way to the front of Sports in the PD than if he wasn't following them so closely.Great work by both writers.gO'Zips! Quote
Blue & Gold Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Definitely. I had made up my mind to drop the ABJ but the coverage has been so good that now I'm definitely (and happily) going to have to renew my subscription. Quote
Zip N' Dots Posted February 12, 2009 Report Posted February 12, 2009 Definitely. I had made up my mind to drop the ABJ but the coverage has been so good that now I'm definitely (and happily) going to have to renew my subscription.I actually dropped my subscription a year and a half ago cause I was so disgusted by the lack of coverage. But if this continues I will subscribe once again! Quote
