Project 365 Day 92: April 2, 2013

Every week, the Reminder publishes an article about one of the high school teams. Today, it was about the baseball team, with this exciting headline: "WHS Baseball Team is Scrappy." I had two reactions when I read this: 1.) First, I thought it said, "WHS Baseball Team is Crappy," and 2.) When I realized what it said, I thought, "That's the best they can say about this team?" I know that one of the meanings of "scrappy" is "determined" and "pugnacious," but it also means "consisting of disorganized, untidy, or incomplete parts." I wonder if the writer knew that when s/he wrote the article. http://flic.kr/p/e8A5tw
