I’m not a Miami RedHawks fan.
I go to school at Miami University and love the place, but I don’t cheer on its sports teams.
Every day of the week, I root for the Cincinnati Reds, Bengals and a host of other franchises or college programs. But when it comes to the RedHawks, I have a job to do, and that is to report the facts from a neutral base.
Journalists aren’t allowed to cheer in the press box, and I live by that. I’m never calmer than when stationed in the Yager Stadium press box or Millett Hall press row.
