Raise a Glass:

I’m following up my last little tangent with a recommendation that you fellow time crunchers check out our shared colleagues blog post Beer & Sports, by Mr. Jose Roman on his blog Everything’s Bigger in Texas. It’s a nice, short, sweet little piece about our own UT beginning a new profit generating venture in which they have commenced selling beer and wine at sporting events; of which the original writer was in favor, and if successful would continue into the fall sports season. This would make UT the third big 12 school to begin doing so.
 Aside from effectively summarizing the original article by Matthew Gill, Mr. Roman includes mentions of the new plans’ official supporting bodies; as well as the motivation for the school picking this particular avenue if fund raising. Mr. Roman also included a brief line illustrating the original writers’ forward thinking in the form of the writer appealing to sports fans to control their alcohol consumption and act sensibility to the benefit f all (their sports team included). All of which comes together to spurn the reader to take a look-see at the original article featured in The Daily Texan.

As someone who has a tendency to run a little long on my own blog post, I found Mr. Roman’s blog post to be a good example of how one need not wind on in order to import eye catching (and brow raising) information to the reader as to pique their interest.
