It might also also just be the fact that Green Bay still doesn't know how to defend.

Oh, obviously. The tobacco companies are crapping their collective designer business pants over the e-cig industry. Some of them are trying to move into the market, I believe, but they would only produce disposables and 'cigalikes' because they cost more in the long run to maintain versus the advanced stuff that has a…

Late to the party, but I wanted to offer two pennies seeing as I'm vaping to get away from analogs as well. Studies on electronic cigarette use are still emerging because of the relative new-ness of the activity, so findings can seem to be kind of all over the place. I do recall some of the larger studies,…

How far can you punt your grandmother's fine china?

I want to say it's the latter. Granted, I've pretty much exiled myself from commenting since the Roundups started again, but it's like I remember Foodspin or Screengrabber or whatever needing separate follows. At the very least it's how I understand the system to work based on the interface, but I could be way off…

Centaur: "All I said was 'you should put on some pants.'"

Oh, don't get me wrong, I think I enjoyed cutting paper articles more than anything and filing them to the hanging folders in our tubs, even when the folders did wreck my hands.

I'm assuming everyone spoke on the same topic as well in that case. That's odd; I don't know if I'd prefer that. As a judge, one of my favorite things to see is someone who isn't just making sound arguments, but showing that they've done their homework. (I'd say this is especially true on very common topics where…

Laptops are legal right now, but phones as far as I know are not. Even then, however, students can't use the internet in extemp draw - any and all articles on their computers have to be saved to the computer locally.

Basically, up until the tournament, you stock up on news articles on major current events to build a research base. At the actual tournament, this collection of research is what you use during the 30 minutes of prep time to formulate your speech. Then, once your time is up, you go from the draw room to your actual…

The current high school prep time is 30 minutes, and the speech time limit is 7 minutes, but yeah, extemp is hardcore. I enjoyed it when I did it (thought never as much as LD).
