Washington Post story on VCU joining the A10

Poster: formerly boston pops

anyone see it?  hehehe.  i went thru the paper twice this morning.  but i admit, at this hour i still could have missed it.

What does VCU joining the A10 have to do with the Twerps?

 Or the Redskins or Congressional procedural machinations or the Redskins or federal employee COLAs or the Redskins or the presidential campaign or the Redskins? Or for that matter, what does the A-10 have to do with the Redskins?

They will probably figure it out sooner or later, days after the story is on the Internet and TV.

Thanks again to the Post's crack Colonials/weekend shooping tips correspondent. Maybe the crowd comments are still bothering her delicate ears.

Just an incredibly dumb article. Says they are "cashing in," then 3 grafs later says ...

They are forfeiting nearly $5 million in NCAA tournament money due them over the next six years under the guidelines of CAA bylaws, will pay the CAA a $250,000 exit fee and a $700,000 fee to join the A-10, interim athletic director David Benedict said.

Also quotes CAA commish as saying "Anytime someone moves on to something better ...."

Dunderheading at the highest levels of governance.

Impressive brief in Wednesday's paper. They pulled out all the stops for those couple paragraphs.

yup. the link provided by our "Post" poster is to the online version of the paper. the story made the paper version a day later. not the day after the story broke but two days. and as you note, Bigfan, it's abbreviated and buried among stories to be reported but not worthy of their own article. Yet the non-news story of Mason "choosing" to stay in the CAA gained prominent headline status just a few days earlier. Both versions treat the A10 as though its a new league to area readers. neither discusses the potential for a new rivalry with another area school. in fact gw is never mentioned, even in passing. the simple truth of the story seems to be that VCU was chosen over Mason. yet that truth will never be explored in the Post. It seems to me possible, (although i have absolutely no information to back it up) VCU earned the invitation, beating out Mason, by agreeing to join immediately and foregoing next years payment. (if so, kudos to our new commish!) just one more sad case of petty journalism in action at the Washington Post.
