Okie, Mule, Donnie and Cozens were all asked questions about fan support during yesterday’s practice. The clips were spliced together for an item on their website yesterday and this pops today. All this just after great road trip, the Bills are out, and ticket sales are meh for the league’s #2 team coming on. Its definitely been a more sophisticated approach this year from what we’ve seen in the past, but just because it’s based on things that are “real” doesn’t mean it’s not also marketing. They are trying to build a buzz that they can ride until the end of the season with a big win before a packed house over a good team. Especially if they follow that up with Tage doing something to get them talking at the all-star game. To be clear, there’s nothing wrong with this. I hope it works. Expand Fits right in w/the point I’ve made before about their re-vamped social media/online presence. It’s pumping out content that rings true to many Quote

Expand I've had plenty of U.S.-born, first-year college writing students submit assignments with grammar and syntax so much more problematic than what we see here in Dahlin's brief essay.
