Was reading through the chat log for ESPN's Andrea Adelson and saw a couple NIU questions in there.

Quote:Joe (D.C.)
What are your predictions for the NIU @ Kansas game? Is there anyway Kansas can stop the juggernaut that is the NIU offense? NIU right now is anywhere from a 5-7 point favorite.

Andrea Adelson (4:01 PM)
I like NIU. The key of course is to slow down Chandler Harnish. My word what an opener he had! Ever since he took back the starting job, he has played like a man possessed.

Andrea,You never really answered my question. NIU over Wisconsin?Give me a final score on the NIU vs. Wisconsin game at Soldier Field.

Andrea Adelson (4:22 PM)

What?? Why would anybody want to slow down Harnish? If playing like "a man possessed" wins us games...what is wrong with that? Not sure I'm understanding Andrea on this one.

It's like she switched to a KU perspective for one sentence in the middle of praising NIU and Harnish.

What's so confusing about her response? She answered the two questions that the guy asked, and added additional praise of Harnish... Might not be the best sentence structure, but she's responding rapid-fire style in those chats.

She was referring to the key for Kansas to win. Like that will happen anyway though.

I have no idea what's confusing about that.

No offense but we shouldnt have women discussing football!

She's smarter than half the posters on this board....

I am absolutely shocked that a sports reporter would be caught making gramatical mistakes in her off-the-cuff comments. I don't think I have ever heard that before.

Not only can she read, she stays inside the lines when she colors.
