Great! Although, I was a little concerned when I heard Reusse on the radio this morning from the airport on his way to the football thrashing.
Hopefully, they will follow it up with coverage this weekend.

Very important -- for anyone so inclined -- to send a note of thanks. So they know someone cares (and was paying attention).

Do you have the sports editor's e-mail address?

Wow. Great work everyone!!!!
I will send thanks today too.
I was out of town, and forgot to share this with you...
My email to Pam Schmit...........
10/19/2006 1:21 PM >>> Dear Pam,
We miss you covering the U Volleyball team. Why is nobody covering them these days?
I wrote to them on Sunday, and called. My boyfriend wrote the following email today to the sports department. Thought I would share it with you, and perhaps see what you had to say about the lack of coverage.
......................................................................
This was Pams response back to me.....
Hi Dawn,
Thanks for writing.
I can't speak for our newspaper's decision to cover volleyball less. I'm currently on the high school beat (and Lynx!), so the Gophers are no longer part of what I do. But the more people who express their displeasure over the level of coverage, the more the folks here will listen.
If he hasn't done so already, I recommend that your boyfriend direct his e-mail to Glen Crevier, and perhaps copy the managing editor, Scott Gillespie, in as well.
Hope all is well, and cheers! Pam

I am glad someone is finally paying some attention. I would think that maybe the front runner instinct would lead some people to think about supporting a team that is potentially playing for the conference lead over one that barely beat North Dakota State at home (is NDSU D-1A in football now?)

I think the only interest in Gopher football now is how bad will they be? Oh, and to get Mason fired.
