They should consider getting a new editor and/or writer. I've read through this column every day it comes out and it always has horrible grammar and sentence structure. Example: "From 1986 to 1992, Duke played in six of college hoops’ final weekend seven weekends" What?

Anyway, it's a good column and I enjoy reading it, just thought I'd point that out.

Stanley, Dick Vitale and ESPN didn't CAUSE Duke's success. They didn't make the players better. They didn't make the shots go in. Only Duke caused Duke's success. Many other teams had the same opportunities as Duke (with multiple All-Americans, and great coaches), but weren't able to make it count. Imagine how it would have been in the late 60s and early 70s (UCLA's dominant years)if there had been ESPN and Dick Vitale.
