Props to these guys for spreading the word I guess, I'm sure it's cool for softball players and their families to get some coverage of the sport, but it honestly comes across kinda patronizing when they act like stuff like this is "huge news."
Similarly, I stopped following McKewon a long time ago so maybe he's still doing this, but he would always do like play-by-play live tweeting of entire NU women's bball games. It always felt like he was solely doing it to make sure everyone knew that HE follows WOMEN'S basketball, so everyone should give him extra credit.
I dunno, on one hand maybe it's cool for those players and fans, on the other hand it just feels kinda phony and performative by the media members, like they just want a pat on the head.
