Message: [QUOTE="PacoSwede, post: 4233483, member: 120"] sure enough! too bad the writer didn't simply quote Geno. instead, he pre-emptively declared uconn "was a team in name only," a bunch of 'onlookers.' admittedly, the [I]fans[/I] might have[B] thought[/B] so, geno might have [B]felt[/B] that way,[I] in frustration[/I]. ... so, quote them, in context. but geno knew, and the fans should have too, that it was very, very early in the season, with a very new team with a lot of issues and it was[I] in the process of becoming[/I] the best it could be, as is typical at the beginning of the season -- and not a crew of onlookers, not a team in name only. connolly left out this context, distorted the story just so it would flow into a pleasing narrative ... that little trick kinda ruined for me what was otherwise a good piece, good quotes, etc. [/QUOTE]
