I graduated in 06 and went off to college, so the DI's online articles entirely make up the coverage of North East Kentucky Football that I get to see, and I have to say that i'm disappointed in the coverage these kids are getting. Whether the records show it or not, these kids go out there and give it everything they have, and AT LEAST deserve decent coverage by the Sportswriters.

I also understand that we can't expect a writer to travel 2 hours to cover a sure blow out, but if the best we can get is a full page article about a team that is having a dismal season, then I may as well not even pick up the saturday paper.

I have great respect for Rocky Stanley and enjoy reading his articles. I mean no disrespect to any of the ADI staff, but between 6 sporstwriters, surely we can get more than a recap of a box score.

The same thing goes here that goes for all of us saturday morning quarterbacks, it's easy to make the right call the day after Coach made the wrong one. But the subscribers to the paper, and more importantly, the student-athletes deserve credit for all of the hard work they put in, regardless of the outcome of the games.

Excellent post and welcome to the site. If you need anything feel free to contact me or any staff member and we will assist you in any way we can.
