WVU in Herd territory?

Speculations have emerged that West Virginia University has rented the recreation center for the contest between both teams. Thought to be rumored, students did some digging to find answers. Phone calls were made to both campus administrations and no accounts have been reported. This is a good example of how rumor control can spiral out of hand. Had word gotten out that rumors were true, chaos could have developed. Searching for clarifications is an important act; regardless of whether you are a journalist or not.

Cellular Malfunction

Due to a cell phone technicality and a late start to his day, Jim Furyk is ineligible to play at the Barclays. A strong and respectable player, Furyk got the short end of the stick. Regulations disqualified him; however, I do not feel it is fair. Rules may be rules, but the sixth-ranked player in the world can oversleep too. Furyk recalled being late for one other tournament where an alternate filled in. This was not the case this time. Luckily, the situation should just knock him a few positions in the standings and only prohibits him from playing in one of the four FedEx Cub playoff events. I applaud Furyk and his professional attitude when commenting the fiasco and look forward to seeing the results. I think it is safe to say several golfers will be purchasing back-up batteries and chargers for the future; Furyk included.
