Need some more quick help

PrintWhat is the legacy for Jason Marquis. I am doing a 1 sentence legacy that Cubs fans will remember about Marquis. Nothing like "He sucks" or anything like that, but a legit sentence evaluating his time on the Northside.
I need one of these for Marquis, Jim Edmonds, and Felix Pie. I already did Kerry Wood, Ronny Cedeno, and Mark DeRosa. Here they are in case anyone thinks I should critique them....
Wood - "The next big thing until he was ridden with injury after injury"
Cedeno - "Never respected by fans, and fans glad to see him leave"
DeRosa - "Fan favorite that could play almost any position asked of him"
-- Thanks

Is this homework?
If you had to choose just one characteristic that would get you through life, choose a sense of humor.
not to mention that time honored phrase..
“what’s in it for us?”
Yo Joe, a little more background, please. We’re not just here to serve at your (rod) beck and (johnny) call(ison). Help us help you.
Besides, if you’re looking for one liners, go here.

isnt this guy
the one who is a sports writer, but needed help knowing who were in and out from last season?

Yep, that's him.
And the one with the delightfully divisive signature line, which we probably shouldn’t get into.

very divisive and....
also a White Sox fan

Yeah, I mean I'm willing to be cool to Sox fans who come here...
…as long as they steer clear of cheap shots. But if Joe wants help with his homework, he should do what everyone else does – go to Yahoo! Answers.
My sig line is out for jury duty.
Needed help know who Cubs fans would rank as the biggest incomers and outgoers
Why is everyone so hostile towards me? I am asking for simple help here from Cubs fans. Not sure about you, but I would rather read something that is accurate to my team than something that a Sox fan would percieve. I have no clue how Cubs fans felt towards him, or if him moving effects the team. Cedeno’s answer was more obvious, but I can honestly say I dont know much about Marquis or how he was recieved at Wrigley.

I think it's because you ask for "simple" help that you could easily find out on your own
This doesn’t appear to be some complex, in-depth, season-long diary, book, play or even movie where the collective wisdom & experience from hundreds, if not thousands of dedicated Cubs fans would be a significant value-add. To paraphrase Allen Iverson…
“We’re talkin’ ’bout one-liners!”
Are you seriously telling us you have “no clue how Cubs fans felt towards him (Marquis)”? Or “if him moving effects the team”? I gotta believe there were several fanposts and many many more comments that addressed those specific questions. It’s a well-worn phrase, but well-worn for a reason – the search bar is your friend.
And please don’t hide behind the “I’m not a Cubs fan” defense. I’m no Sox fan, but I don’t need to do a Vulcan mind-meld with Ozzie to know what Crede meant to the team and how moving Vazquez affects the rotation.
Now if you really wanted to get some legitimate responses, you could have at least offered to put us in the credits of your article. Heck, for a small fee – half of which goes to CubsCare and the other half presumably to your pocket – I’m sure you would have had hundreds of responses…
…umm, maybe not.

Seriously, I am appalled by how disrespectful and unwilling to help everyone (minus a select few who actually helped me) is being.
“Friendly” confines my ass.

try replying to the points I raised in my above comment and I'll be glad to show you some respect and hospitality.
otherwise, your approach (expecting us to help you without exerting much, if any, effort from yourself and providing very little in the way of background or explanation) mirrors that of a spoiled child accustomed to getting their way.
Prove me wrong – explain more about how much research you’ve already done on this, and/or why you are unable to obtain this information on your own.
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
has he even told us where this "review" will run?

And if someone asked you to help him lift something, would you argue “WHY SHOULD I HELP YOU!” ?? If so, you are a terrible person. I help people when they ask for it, especially something that would be easy for me to help with.

Yes
Using Cubs fans opinions to claim as the reception from Cubs fans is definitely stealing your work. Fine, I can make up something about what Cubs think of those 3 players and have it be false, that’s cool.

"I like coconuts, you can break them open and they smell like ladies lying in the sun" Widespread Panic
I have to agree
You could easily read a couple fanposts and come to your own conclusion. If you truly want to be a journalist, you will have to learn that proper research, while extremely tedious, is critical to strategic writing. Also, after reading your article about the Blackhawks, I suggest you purchase an AP Stylebook and When Words Collide, or some other type of grammatical guide. These books will help you develop more strategic and effective writing.
I am not trying to be rude. As a journalism-news editorial student, I am just trying to give some advice I wish someone would have given me.
Wait a minute.
First you said this post was for “research” for your “newspaper” then you said you made this fanpost for “fun.” Which is it? Or would you consider this fun research for your print only “newspaper.”

How is that even REMOTELY close to saying “The Cubs suck”…. ?? Terrible example.

here i was just
making the point that we have talked and that in that arguement you got a little hostle saying that beliebve ARAM was better then crede makes me like all other Cubs fans.

Do your self a favor, if you get into a conversation about another team make sure you know what you are talkin about, cause most likely those fans will know more about their team then ull ever know.
