Thanks again, AP

Quality cutline, Canadian Press!

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Andrew Wiggins (22) Toronto Raptors guard Cory Joseph (6) Toronto Raptors guard DeMar DeRozan (10) and Toronto Raptors forward Patrick Patterson (54) during the second half of an NBA basketball game, Wednesday, Feb. 24, 2016 in Toronto.

 

Sunday:
1, Indiana-Maryland gamer wrote through twice without fixing INDIANAPOLIS dateline. | I called New York about that.
2, SEC women's championship gamer never did write through with Mississippi State coach/player quotes. No "loser lead" ever moved.

 

On the second point, only time a hometown lead moves on women's basketball is if a team ranked in the Top 10 loses.

 

Yeah, they haven't made anything beyond the top 10 a priority. Wondered if that would change as the games become more important. Guess not.

 

Okay, sure, but NO loser quotes in the "optional"? That's bullshit.

 

I try not to complain about AP but this is ridiculous.

George Martin died tonight. A couple hours ago, the reports started rolling in.

What does AP do? Send out an alert hours later quoting David Cameron quoting Ringo Starr saying Martin will be missed -- with no actual information on why he'd be missed. Did he go on holiday? Stop at the ice cream shop? Stay too long at a massage parlo(u)r?

FFS. Places were reporting it and had it confirmed by various sources: Martin's management, Martin's label were two.

What a bunch of poppycock.

 

Wow. This is the first 100 words or so of the AP story on Johnny Manziel being released. Looks like it's the only version that moved, too.
Did Manziel steal this guy's girlfriend at a club or something? Whatever happened to objectivity?

 

Anyone know when the AP plans on moving next week's TV sked? It usually hits the wire Wednesday afternoon or early evening, but it hasn't been updated in a while.

 

For those who use the AP TV sked like I do, they changed the slug. It's just sportswatch now. So if you type bc-tv in the search, the new advance won't show up.

Thanks for the heads up, AP.

 

Maybe waiting for NCAA results? Or did the second post answer this?

 

Second post answered my own question. lol

I thought they were doing that, too, but called the Louisville bureau and the guy ran a search of sportswatch and -- voila. Told him I was searching for "TV" and nothing came up. He said it was odd they changed the slug, but everything is there as it always has been.

 

Hey AP: It's North Carolina, not Carolina, not even on second reference. Just like they're the Tar Heels, not the Heels, which you also used repeatedly, or how for some inane reason y'all continue to omit the "Fighting" before "Irish" and "Illini."
