  • Explicit talk (profanity) otherwise great.

    great football content for the FCS, mostly Big Sky and Montana teams. Love them for that. however, they regularly tout there professional jounalism but use unnecessary profanity on a regular basis. You guys do a great job, you dont need profanity to sound cool or add street cred. It makes you sound uneducated which I know you are not. You can do better, use language that will elevate your journalism and take on the teams/games.
