Now I see what the difference is between playing Ivy & Patriot teams and getting national exposure. Nationally, they hate us because our players aren't in the hotel school.

Wow, I somehow actually remember that gum commercial from 1990.
And you gotta like any article that mentions the Anheuser Busch Seminar in Quality Brewing and Fine Beer.

No offense, Beeeej, but that Slate.com article was lame.

I neither wrote it nor forced you to read it, so why would I take offense?

As long as we're talking about hate, why does everyone hate Greg Paulus?

Re: Cornell Makes Slate's "Teams We Hate" - they sucked us in

The headline writer's craft at worked - they sucked us in to read a story that was just some whiny guy who did the bare minimum of research (more likely Googling) to put together a story.
Hey, I should talk. I wrote a two-paragraph tosser that got picked up by Yahoo Wednesday and drew a half-million hits in one day. Plus a bunch of angry letters from Prius fans who couldn't abide the idea their beloved ride might lose an economy test to a diesel luxury sedan. I was thinking: If I got a penny of the ad revenue per hit ... pretty soon it'd be real money.
