    Just remember to put in pictures of the winning team only. I don't care if the photo of the loser is a Pulitzer winner, that team lost, so they shouldn't be in the paper.

    Interestingly enough, the town this paper is published is not a stranger to tragedy. Six people between the ages of 15-22 were killed when a guy in dragster in a parade tried to show off, lost control of the vehicle and went speeding into the crowd. And that was just a couple of years ago. You'd think they'd know what was appropriate and what wasn't. Guess not.

    Bad lede. Horrible lede. Poor taste. It deserves ridicule.

    But it didn't "compare" a football game to a national tragedy.

    We're still supposed to know what words mean around here, I hope, if we're going to use them to critique writers.
