Rachad Davis, Sports Editor - I do not think there is anyone less deserving of a professional career in basketball as much as Metta World Peace. Metta, formerly Ron Artest, is quite possibly the dirtiest person in the NBA. I’m not talking about dirty as in unsanitary, but rather his character and actions. The people who consistently watch basketball probably know Metta’s story and of the incident that occurred when [...]

Jared Bloomquist, Staff Writer - I greet you with, for the first time in this article, mixed emotions. This is the last time you will see a new “Fresh” for the year—and probably ever. It has been a pleasure trying to help you stay in shape, and I hope it has at least helped you think about what you might do. With that shared, I think it is time to [...]

Megan Delp, Managing Editor – So here it is: the last Kiss and Tell. You all have witnessed and heard about my life through the rollercoaster of a ride I have been through this year. As I was writing this blog, it made me realize how different my life is today compared to even just the beginning of this school year. When I first began this blog, I was still [...]

Rachad Davis, Sports Editor – So apparently Jackie Robinson Day was this past Sunday? We all know the significance of Jackie Robinson; he was the first African-American to integrate the sport of baseball. Anyway, what I want to bring to your attention in this week’s blog post is a fact that I learned from an article I was reading in USA TODAY Sports. “The African-American population in baseball this season [...]

Jared Bloomquist, Staff Writer – Well, I don’t know about you, but it has just hit me that by the time this is published, we will be in the teens for number of schooldays left. Where has the year gone, really? We only have one more week together and finals are looming, as well as papers that we’re going to wait until the last possible minute to start. Even though [...]

Megan Delp, Managing Editor – I think that everyone has at least heard of, if not seen, a hickie. The trademark of either the “oops, what did I do last night that I have to remember?” Or the “this is my girlfriend/ boyfriend and I want it to be known that it they are taken.” However, there is also the “it was a joke, just to have a laugh for [...]

Rachad Davis, Sports Editor – I do not know if any of you have noticed or not, but our men’s teams this season have been pretty dominant as of right now. I’m the sports editor and even I was surprised to see how well the majority of our men’s teams were doing. Keep in mind I am referring to lacrosse, track and field and baseball. While our tennis team is [...]

Megan Delp, Managing Editor – Why does it seem that males and females have different feelings towards the use of contraception today? Furthermore, why does the use of contraception seem to be lacking when there are so many different ways to have safe sex? We are fortunate enough that different types of contraception have been created and are offered as an option to practice safe sex, but it still seems [...]

Jared Bloomquist, Staff Writer How has the transition been going? I’m confident in hoping the answer is gloriously, however, I know some of you haven’t changed a thing. Understandably, I blame myself. It is unfathomably difficult to avoid bad food on Easter Sunday along with most holidays, because the fare is as important as the family. And, around holidays, there is so much more on your mind beyond how you [...]

Megan Delp, Managing Editor – Drunk Dialing. A phrase to most of us college students that creates either fear or laughter the next morning after that now “not so clear” night. The words just in themselves can almost stimulate those feelings inside of me. For me, the drunk dial does not only refer to phone calls but the drunken text message one sends in their altered state of mind. People, [...]
