I think Marcello has done a great job. He struggled at first b/c Veazey was comfortable with the staff but you can tell in the last few weeks - he is getting the same comfort level.
The thing I liked about Veazey and he would take numbers and put a blog entry about it. It was interesting.

He tries to hard and is most often unsuccessful.
On a side note 2HD is doing a pretty good job these days....or maybe his competition makes it look that way.

He seems to get a lot of his news from message boards. I think he tries hard and he's getting better but there is definitely some delight in taking pot-shots. I'm not whining about it like some folks, I just don't understand it. It seems like some reporters think they have to throw in negative **** to seem objective. If something negative happens, definitely report on it because that's your job, but taking jabs just to seem objective is a dick move. That seems to be BM's MO though.
I like him, but he's no Kyle.

Seems like he just re-hashes news from other sources. Maybe I missed it, but I'm yet to see him get a scoop. Which to me, a beat writer should do 50% of the time, especially in Starkville. Then again, I'm glued to MBs, twitter, and have a couple deepthroats so maybe I'm callused to his scoops. And hiswritingis rather vanilla to boot.<div>

I had Veazey as a 9. Veazy was a bit better of a reporter, but I wasn't a fan of hearing about his meals and golf and tennis. Marcello actually knows football better, and brings a bit more interesting viewpoints to the table, but his writing style isn't as much of my taste.
You guys that say he's terrible are just a bunch of homeristic paranoid lunatics. Yeah, the CL, ESPN, and the SEC are all out to get us.

but if the look-alike contests come back it's going up
and i rate him a solid 5. no screw-ups, nothing original, creative, or above average.
