Herald must do better on sports section, delivery

I write regarding the Sports Page (a very questionable title) of Dec. 10. I need help understanding why a soccer story took up nearly a half page, yet there was no story, let alone even a score of the Gonzaga and UW basketball game. A game with concluded before 8:30 p.m.. And to make matters even worse, there were no basketball scores at all in the paper.

Oh, and I couldn’t check about scores in the Sunday paper as it was not even delivered due to “transportation issues.”

If The Herald wants to keep readership you need to do a much better job of serving the folks who support you with subscriptions. This includes publishing and delivering a paper on a daily basis.
