Author: Worried RAM
Subject: The job of The Ram sports editor is be a jack of all trades. He must come up with story ideas and features, write his own articles, layout the sports section and meet strict deadlines. Today in sports journalism, the movement to add humor and wit into one's writings has made many successful. (PTI and our own Tony Reali!!) So it is his job to write personal opinion stories in the Overtime section like it has been done for many years now in that feature. This semester it has been that way to the delight of the student body and Tom's "cult" like readers. (I hope i wasn't putting anyone's religion down with the "cult" comment)
In reply to: Bronx Boy 's message, "Upstate Ram is on the money re: the assessment of Tom DeCataldo and his article. Most of this country is not The Big Apple, it is Olean and Podunk, and all the whistle stops along the way (that's why G Dub won the election). Each venue has its particular charm and repulsion. The job of a sports editor is to put together an informative report of a sports event, not emulate Steinbeck's "Travels with Charlie", or in this case, "Travels with Tubby Tom"." on Mon March 14, 2005 17:46:55
