Chris, I appreciate your friendship and attitude. You had nothing to do with my withdrawing from the contest. It is just a matter of principle. I feel that it is set up to be a recruiting contest rather than a writing contest. There were some comment about my articles not being CFB related anyhow, and to avoid any resentment - I have stepped aside which will open a place for someone else. I am going to take a break after my next article on the teen writers of B/R. Thanks again Chris for giving me a pass on my knee-jerk reaction. You are a class act.

Chris, please read my response to your comment on Lisa's article. I made a jackass out of myself by opening my big mouth before I engaged my small brain. What an idiot!

Go to my profile, email me at my address, and I'll send you a gift card for a meal. I truly apologize. I am beyond worn out by all of this.

Good to see an actual intelligent OSU fan who doesn't try to poor beer on you or pee on you when visiting the Horseshoe during "The Game".

Chris,

I'm in a contest to co-host a Radio show on a L.A. radio station and I'm in need of votes. Every contestant was given the directive to drop a two minute demo, I've done that and have advanced to the 5th round of the 7 round contest. The site to check me out if www.am570radio.com the contest is called "Fame & Fortune II" there is a Fame & Fortune II Vote Now banner on the site and I am in the 'L' bracket. Go to the site and check me out.

Hey, sorry it has taken me so long to write back, my computer has abandoned me so I'm being forced to do my work in a library. But anyway, in regards to your question about a site for AP, I'm not sure. I get all of my AP style guidelines from my trusty AP book. HOWEVER, Bleacher Report doesn't go by AP guidelines. They have their own style guidelines. They can all be found at http://bleacherreport.com/pages/styleguide. As for paragraph formatting, a guide to that can be found at http://bleacherreport.com/pages/cheatsheet. Hope this helps, and of course, let me know if you have any more questions.

Chris,

That was solid take you left on my board. I agree with every last one. I try not to get into to much dialog with ND fan for that reason as well as the fact that I'd respect them more if they were actually competing in a conference. They'll find a way to justify what happens and always go with the flow but as stated the fact of the matter is Ty Willingham 21-15 shown the door CW 22-15 and he gets a contract extension? I like your stuff man and want to wish you continued success. I'm going ot prematurially congratulate you on your upcoming graduation as well. Don't let anyone deter you from our dreams and do everything you can to make it happen.
