Shorts

Discussion in 'Journalism topics only' started by WaylonJennings, May 7, 2009.

  1. Is it appropriate to cover high school spring sports in shorts?

    Depends on your legs.

    Yes. Nice shorts. Long ones. Decent shirt. NO FLIP FLOPS. No one wants to see your man toes.

    Especially if you have Fred Flinstone feet like my hubby.

    If you are uncertain, I have seen guys wearing "shorts" that nearly reach their ankles. Maybe you could take those out for a test drive.

    So hot pants are not acceptable?

    come on now, waylon - you haven't seen one or two of these threads around before? I say that with no jab intended, but, really. it's as constant as a college kid getting on here and asking about what we think about getting a journalism degree.

    It is shorts season, jps. Give hot legs a break.
     
  9. Oh, I've seen the clothing threads, and even lambasted people for wanting to dress like hobos to cover things, because "it's just sports." Probably even been accused several times of taking myself too seriously.

    But in this case I'm specifically wondering: High school event. Temperature soaring. Shorts.

    Appropriate?
