Folks, is that a new world record for the amount of politically
correct double-speak that you can cram in a single sentence?!
I've read it at least five times, and I'm STILL not entirely
sure what it means...
...of course, it was definitely wind-aided, so won't count

statisticians...
...the "experience" ?!?...give me a break...as if "student-
athletes" is not ENOUGH of an oxymoron to kill the sentence

A plan to avoid any definitive action, if I've ever heard one!

I spent three days last week leading a team of a dozen people
for my company, in trying to produce a strategy for maintenance

Can't I get a break from that kind of stuff when I come home
at the end of the day and log on to find out what's going on
in the world of athletics?
