As always.. I never understand what Hunt's intended purpose of his article is?

Is it: Buzz is a living "Rainman"?

Is it: MU is small...but that does not seem to matter in today's college basketball?

Is it:... A basketball team playing as an actual team?



I don't know...but it seems all of these items, plus ten more were discussed in this article, yet he really didn't say anything at all.  Why bother even writing this?

I read it as a well-deserved valentine to Buzz.

It's a puff piece about MU and Buzz exceeding expectations.

And Mike Hunt has never ever walked away from a piece of puff pastry either

I would be eating out of depression too if my name were Mike Hunt.

Cut him some slack.

He was great in Harry Potter.

Yeah, I generally have the same feeling when I read his articles.  There is nothing very insightful going on there.

That's a standard column for newspapers these days. Anybody that knows MU already knows about the affinity for numbers possessed by Williams. That's written for people who have no already inherent interest in MU, who probably aren't reading the article when they see the headline. In other words, doesn't tell the audience you should be trying to reach in this day and age of newspapers (MU fans with an MU column) they didn't already know. In and of itself, it's an adequate column, just not particuarly insightful.

i swear to God he plagarizes my posts on the JS chatboard.  i'm not even joking or hyperbolizing.  more than 5 times I have written something very specific about a game or something MU related, and sure enough, in his next MU related article, there it is......the same point I made in a much more timely fashion.

although I realize this probably isn't actually the case, it still makes me feel weird.  and it makes my opinion of Michael "the hack" Hunt go down even further.
