  1. Jeff - Thought you might enjoy a fun, quick ND history session... I had a great time with the research.

  2. Hey that was my bad! I did not notice the disclaimer of extra point! So again my fault there. I really enjoyed your article.

  3. Hey Jeff. It is appropriate to start a sentence with "and," although doing it too much isn't a great idea. I think it adds emphasis to certain sentences. I really appreciate you taking it up with me, though.

  4. After an impressive offseason, many expected Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry to have a breakout season. It may be early, but he has struggled in the first three games of the 2009 season and the emergence of Andre Caldwell may have something to do with it.

    Thanks,

    Dan

  5. Here you go:

    We want to use em-dashes (—) instead of double-hyphens (--), en-dashes (–), or any other form of dash. The em-dash is the longest type of dash, and is created by typing SHIFT-OPTION-(dash) on a Mac keyboard and ALT-0151 on a PC (hold down ALT while typing 0151 on the numeric keypad).

    (NB: If you're working on a PC without a numeric keypad, you'll have to copy and paste em-dashes as necessary. Here's one to get you started: —)

    There should be no spaces on either side of the em-dash. Proper formatting looks like—this.

    Hope that helps!

  6. After one of the worst losses my own two eyes have seen, I decided to write this piece on loyalty to your team and dealing with the hardship of defeat. A must read for Irish fans.

  7. Hey guys, if you would please read this article on the comparison between Vince Young and Tim Tebow.

  14. Hey!

    Would you mind checking out my latest article? It talks about the 2009 super sophomores for the Ohio State buckeyes! If you're not a buckeye fan, it's an interesting read and you could extend you're knowledge on college football. Thanks!
