I'm happy to give her a chance.

She seems to be doing a decent job so far.

we haven't really jumped into expansion talk with her yet. Until then, I consider her neutral. We won't know how she completely feels about UCF till we have a discussion about it.

She is not that bad. It's still early and should give her the benefit of the doubt. She may written in Orlando, but at least she didn't graduate from UCF. I don't care she went to UF. USF and UF are hardly mentioned in the same sentence unlike they are with UCF and Miami.

Still too early to tell if I like her or not.  I will give her the benefit of the doubt and come to a conclusion after the season starts.

She never uses contractions. That weirds me out.

If I recall correctly, I don't think you are "allowed" to use contactions in "proper" English.  Correct me if I am wrong.

Not improper, just frowned upon in formal writing.  Considering the likely audience of the prestigious ESPN Big East blog it would probably be okay.

I'm actually in Professional Writing for the summer and we just discussed this.  It depends on your audience and type of writing you are doing.  If it were a formal paper or report, you shouldn't use contractions. Considering this is a sports blog, I'd say contractions are fine.  (Maybe the UF Journalim/English department are just grammar nazis).

I would be happy to see her not use the idiotic internet chat shortcuts like
