Credit Where It's Probably Not Due
Here is one of the odder articles I've read lately. Mark Starr, a reporter at the Everett, Washington Herald is essentially taking credit for Nancy Kerrigan making the 1994 Olympic team. Not joking on this one. Here is the excerpt: And that is when — for the first and only time in my life — I...
