Philadelphia Phillies Survive Early Season Distractions
05/09/2009
I'm Dave. I'm from Philly (obviously), but I go to school in New York with a bunch of Mets fans, at Columbia University.
I'm on the rowing team there, so during the school year and year-long rowing season, I don't really have time to write here. No problem though, since I only really want to write about baseball anyway.
I'm on my school radio station every Wednesday night from 9-10 PM talking mostly about Columbia sports but with some national sports discussion thrown in. You can listen at wkcr.org if you really want/can tolerate Ivy League sports discussions.
Greatest Defense Ever?
Yeah.

Dave, of all the BleacherReport writers who ask me to read with no mention of reciprocating, I have to say your article was fun. And I like fun. It, however, could use some stuff. First, it needs a good editing. I have a 10/90 rule: 10% of my time I use to write it, and 90% I use to edit it. Also, be careful of repeat words in sentences. You find interesting ways to say benign things and that's good, but you could run through this post and cross out all the words that don't need to be said - like writing good stand-up comedy. And you could use more apostrophies and less 'pretty's' and 'probably's'. Write it like you'd say it and read through it out loud - repeatedly - and you'll see what I mean.
Other than that, it was one of the nicest styles I've read on this site. If you care to read one of mine, I just posted today's blog - Cole, The Next Precious Metal. Let me know what you think, especially if you find fault. I'm not here for the popularity contest.

DeleteHey Dave,
Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

Thanks in advance!
