A few hours ago, I (Paul White) wrote what I thought was a lighthearted post regarding the Top 10 reasons Old Dominion could win the CAA. They weren't serious reasons; my intent was to try to lighten the mood a bit and have some fun with a difficult situation. It was not to put down the team or the players. That's never my intent; I enjoy the teams, the individuals involved and the sport way too much for that.
Unfortunately, it didn't come off that way. The one comment we got was along the lines of, "What the hell are you doing?" And when Vicki saw it, she was like, "What the hell are you doing?"
So, what the hell was I doing? Again, I intended it to be all in fun. But if that' not clear to the readers, then I've done the wrong thing. So I've taken the post down, and I'm officially out of the Top 10 reasons business.
To the anonymous person who sent in that comment, thanks for setting me straight. And my sincere apologies to Old Dominion's team, players and coaches, and anyone else that took similar offense.
Too bad, I missed the article by Paul. However, I'm rooting for EDD to win the CAA crown so I can see how she'd fare against the likes of Baylor, Tennessee or Duke.
