My only pet peeve with writers is proof reading before submitting. I do understand last minute game reports to meet a deadline having mistakes, as they are writing while watching the game. Stories being off season filler have to be more accurate from a professional. This sentence would have those not familiar with the team thinking three point guards transferred here from Tennessee. [I]"Westbrook came in from Tennessee as a point guard, as did freshmen Paige Bueckers and Nika Muhl." [/I] A minor mistake here but still not accurate reporting. "As expected, the team is is still working to establish on-court chemistry, something particularly challenging this season with seven of 11 players newcomers to Storrs." Overall not a problem for myself as a decades long subscriber. My biggest problem has been watching the decline of news print and journalism in general. I've seen the quality decline as they cut proofreaders and editors over the years. Just this past week the published the same story twice the same day. I called the sports editor a few weeks back (and did get him) to inform him that the NASCAR race results that day were from the previous weeks race. Something you would not have seen years ago. I'll take what we can get and appreciate what is left of news papers. A couple of weeks back another nail in the coffin.
