Straight up, don’t be an idiot
September 16, 2009
BY MARK MILLARD Editor-in-Chief
This will definitely be a gloomy way of introducing you to a new semester of my opinion pieces, but I need to get this off my chest and I refuse to waste any time in doing so. (Other than extending the previous sentence, and this one explaining it. As you will notice, I needed to input a slight bit of humour prior to having you read this piece.)

The fall of the Blue Jays
September 16, 2009
BY COREY JOHNSON
Managing Editor
Last April in this column I told you about the great start to the season the Blue Jays were having. At one point during the summer, the Jays were 20 games above .500.
At the end of April, Adam Lind and Aaron Hill were among the league’s best hitters, while Roy Halladay seemed like a sure-bet to win the Cy Young award, which is given to the league’s best pitcher. Scott Rolen was batting well over .350, and even players who were not known as power hitters, such as Marco Scutaro and Rod Barajas, were hitting balls out of the park.
