How a newspaper should blog

Great piece this morning on the BostonHerald.com. Instead of just reposting the game story, Steve Conroy used the expanded space to breakdown BC's last second 3-point attempt. He used good quotes and sprinkled in his own analysis. These local newspaper writers have access and a huge platform. I wish they would use it like this more often.

Conroy captures the moment

Great lead from Conroy in the Herald.

You’ve got to hand it to the Boston College football team. When the Eagles lose a game, they don’t exactly torture their fans with a lot of what-ifs and what-could-have-beens.

Conroy breaking news on his blog and other links

Steve Conroy has started breaking news on his blog. Yesterday he was the first to write about LeGrande's potential injury (head), Momah's redshirt and potential move to defensive end and the some tempers at practice. Of those tidbits, the LeGrande news is the most concerning. In my opinion he's been the best defensive player of the short season. Let's hope it is a quick recovery.

Herzy's dad tweeted that Mark had a clean CT scan. I don't know how that impacts the long-term prognosis, but it is good news.

Virginia Tech is the latest ACC team to honor Herzy with a cancer fundraiser.
