SOUND OFF! by Steve T

Okay, the final entry in today's "Sound Off" section of the local paper set me off. A woman from Springfield chastised the Guard for it's vicious attack on Oregon State after the Civil War romp. She took offense to the headline "UO'S RUNAWAY OFFENSE CRUSHES OSU'S ROSE BOWL DREAMS"! Are you kidding me? This is over sensitive, p/c completely run amok. The words the editor chose to scream what happened on that football field were dead on. The offense was like a runaway freight train going downhill on an oiled track. It did crush the Beav's Rose Bowl dream. I'm thinking we could come up with an alternative, more gentle headline. Chime in with your thoughts or send me an e-mail at steve@1320thescore.com
Here's my first entry: "FOOTBALL SQUAD FROM EUGENE GAINS VICTORY WHERE EVERYONE GOT TO PLAY AND MAKE NICE"! YUUUUCKKKK!

How about this as a kinder and gentler alternative headline:
"UO's Nice Offense Gently Ends OSU's Rose Bowl Dreams"
