Please do....I am sending mine right now
Sent Mine also, although I was probably nicer than I should have been.
Done
I was nice, but since I'm a BR resident I expect more of my local paper - like accuracy! They could at least wait for the news to happen!
sent mine. They still haven't corrected it as of 8:07 p.m. It's not that hard a deal to do.
duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Sent mine too, that really makes me angry. Tech has a more historic program in women's basketball than LSU. They are better this year no doubt. I don't think they have what it takes to win it all. In fact, I think Duke will go to the Final Four from that bracket. I'm picking Stanford to win it all. They just hit their peak and are rolling.
Do we a contest for BB&B members?

The more I looked at this the more PO'd I got.
Called Advocate Sports. Talked to Jason.
Explained their error to him. His reply:
"Oh that's the online department."
My reply:
"Well, Jason that reflects horribly on the Advocate Sports Department and whether it's the online department or the sports department, somebody at The Advocate wrote it."
"We should have that taken care of in the next hour."
"Thank you." (On a personal note, in my newspaper editor days, whenever a reader caught my publication in an error, I first thanked them for reading the XYZ paper and that I would be glad to correct the error.)
Too many people today are in denial.
We shall see.

The correction is in. Great writing skills.

Louisiana Tech is the only other school that has been in all 24 NCAA tournaments. The Lady Techsters, whose 20-9 record is well below their usual standard, made it this year as an at-large entry after losing to Rice in the finals of the Western Athletic Conference tournament.
