And the winner is . . .

HERALD STAFF

Saturday, Dec. 9

Tears will flow and hugs will be exchanged when Ohio State quarterback Troy Smith is called to accept the Heisman Trophy at New York's Downtown Athletic Club.

...

Steve Slaton's candidacy took a hit when he and West Virginia were stopped in their tracks [highlight]by USF, especially since some in the media didn't know San Francisco had a team.[/highlight]

Something doesn't add up.  I live in this area (Sarasota/Bradenton)  the local media are pretty good about supporting/reporting USF athletics.  They definately know of us.  What's with the Dec. 9th date?

I have left a message for the sports editor.  This type of mistake could be made by a newspaper out west, however, for a local paper to make this type of mistake is moronic.

To the point it was an attempt at humor: Yeah, we certainly should rise up and call a halt to being the butt of the jokes for the local papers.  It's getting pretty old.  We wonder why the public doesn't embrace the team - well I have an idea why some of the newspaper-reading public might just think we're a joke outfit.

U of San Francisco dropped football in 1951
