CWS Ends
College baseball season is now over, as Texas swept Florida in the championship round. While I'm relieved that the Gators didn't take home the title this year, I would have liked to have seen one last game played tonight. Oh well. February isn't that far away.
In other college sports news (editorials really), Dan LeBatard wrote a piece over the weekend about how the transgressions of University of Miami athletes (those who have already left the school) seem to reflect more directly on the University than similar misdeeds of athletes from former schools.
It's an interesting piece. There are some factual errors - for instance Jon Vilma and D.J. Williams did not leave school early. Many attribute this phenomenon with Miami's athletes to it seeming that while athletes from former schools go on to become "former Tar Heels" or "former Buckeyes" no one becomes a former Cane. Once you become a Hurricane, you're a Hurricane for life. I guess because of that you sometimes have to take the bad along with the good.
