CCC Baseball Playoff Story

MVPapi Got Robbed: Why David Ortiz Deserved the 2005 AL MVP

By Michael Hurley

This column was written in response to Alex Rodriguez's winning the 2005 American League MVP.  I personally believed David Ortiz was more worthy of winning, so I designed a brief argument in support of Ortiz.  I was able to throw in a sense of humor along with a managable amount of statistics to widen my audience and not scare anyone away with too much statistical talk.

RWU Emergency Planning

By Michael Hurley

This article examined the holes in Roger Williams University's emergency planning.  This article shows how some quotes (in this case, Mr. Doherty's) can be refuted with other people's quotes (in this case, Mr. Yensan's).  It also shows ways to question an authorty's opinion while still remaining objective.


World Baseball Classic

By Michael Hurley

This article was written to explain what the World Baseball Classic is, when it's taking place, and who is involved.  I was able to write it in a conversational tone in hopes to grasp the attention of hardcore baseball fans as well as casual fans.
