How Do You Like Your Talons Team News? Shaken or Stirred?

Post by jiminyhopkins » Tue Mar 07, 2023 10:07 pm

With the latest Talons team news being a straight baseball news story, the Talons Electronic Media And Forum Posting Department (TEMAFPD) was wondering.... is this how people prefer their team news? Or would they rather have a bit of levity or meta-absurdity?

You’re too good of a writer to deprive us of content.

I always look on the site for new news from you man. Straight stats are cool but don't lose the humor. You're great at it. I can't even begin to be as good at that style and I'd love to be l.

But either way just post more man. You're a great member of the league

"Both! Write more Team Newses please!"

I mean, the exclamation point is a little aggressive, and I definitely wouldnt use the word please when it comes to speaking with the Talons, but sure, go ahead and write some more. I may, or may not read them. :cool:
