There is clearly an east coast bias and all of our late start games have given CMac minimal exposure to the east coast yahoos.Â
We did very little for Toby and Andrew and it doesn't seem like we learned much from that process. Times have clearly changed, but what can be done to make the case for CMac?  I'm of the mind that we should already have 3 trophies in the Trophy room. This kid deserves more accolades and the marketing prowess that can be put forward.
Your older alum friend must have been using experimental drugs at the time. The campaign for Plunkett was none existent at best. Nothing like the videos and website today, which I certainly have been sent to all H voters (and on 35 mm film for those too old to own computers with Internet access.).
