    Thank you, Alex. I guess I just needed a break. My last mandatory for B/R U wasn't even acknowleged. I can have an article drawing 1000 reads per day and 25 comments and they just disappear from the page. It gets frustrating. Working on a new one. Thank you for noticing.

    Alex, double-check to make sure, but it should be fixed now.

    Z-O-U!

    Thanks for the comments, Alex. And good articles!! I live in the Atlanta area now and get tired of the SEC is better than "sliced bread" BS I have to endure. BTW, I also grew up a Browns fan, unfortuantly. I finally gave up watching them this year. I believe they really screwed up the draft and went for the "so-called" quick fix by way over reaching for Weeden, instead of fixing much bigger problems on the team and supporting Colt McCoy. My Sundays are now free of disappointment and depression, lol.

    Go Mountaineers!!!

    Hi Alex,

    Glad to help out. The way I read the original sentence made it sound like both came from sacks; the revision you made makes it much clearer.

    Keep up the good work!

    Cheers,
    Minnie

    Hey Alex,

    Your last editor was right—that's my bad. Thank you for bringing that to my attention! I checked the B/R Style Question Clearinghouse (extremely useful: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoTw9Kwt3agydDBkMTVqXzNmcHBDM0c3WkdtYlBKd0E#gid=0) and it turns out that recruit star-rankings are represented as digits.

    Thanks,
    Jonas

    Thanks for the compliment, Alex. I, unfortunately, do not know any of the scouts for Sporting KC. I'm acquainted with the coaching staff and some of the front office, but I do not know Matt.

    And, as a Jayhawk, welcome to the Big 12. Certainly be interesting to have Huggins in the conference again.
