It has been pretty surreal here in Corvallis. Whole lotta people I thought I knew saying some real hosed up poo poo.

About the paper or about the pitcher?

More about the paper. I've heard multiple people complaining about the paper digging into the past for no reason.

The pitcher got a standing ovation last weekend from what I heard.

It would have come out anyway. I have to assume MLB teams do routine background checks on top prospects, and this would have come up. A talent like him going undrafted would have raised serious questions, and someone would have provided the answer.

Yeah, that's what gets me. I don't know why people are mad at the paper. He would have been drafted Monday if this hadn't come out, and someone in a major city would do some basic research.

Then there's this whole, "he was just a kid thing." 15 is old enough to know not to rape a child.
