Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

To the BP readers...

Sometimes the rhetoric on the BP can get out of hand... I like the passion, but it does occasionally give me a headache. :-) With that in mind, here are some posting ideas that I got off The Sporting News website:

As you ponder posting, remember what coaches tell athletes in the big game: "Act like you've been here before." What do we mean by that, exactly?

- Keep your posts free of profanity and vulgarity.
- Attack the issue, not the writers or other users.
- Add to the discussion. Don't like a sport? Don't comment, just move on.
- Be creative
