they might have said it, but the facebook ap is very good at finding and correcting errors. I'm sure it would have been corrected.

I did find out from facebook that the work "gullible" is kind of like the word "irregardless" -- it's not a real word and not in the dictionary.

Isn't everything on the internet factual? There must be some cyberspace super-editor that does all the fact checking? Maybe Al Gore? Right?

Wink Is this us?

"A Facebook video clip of the foul, which was posted in the comments section of a Varsity Insider blog post, spurred a online debate. Tullar, who was grabbing a defensive rebound, was sent crashing to the floor on his backside after Tipson fouled Tullar from behind."


I mean, we're not mentioned by name or anything, but......we are debating!

Clear evidence that a flagrant foul is supported. IIRC, that team had other flagitious fouls during that game. At some point, you have to up the ante for these fouls.

I think the columnist was referring to the comment section at the end of the article and on the facebook page.

Comments were closed on both articles.
