Not sure why he insists using oral as well instead of verbal? Does he like the awkwardness?

Maybe. But there is nothing else in that story about fishing.

So one little Aww and you guys forgot about the 1000 atta boys earlier this week they got for writing all these articles? Tough crowd.

Maybe Wilson is an avid trout fisherman?

Yes. Wilson is an avid fisherman according to Rahme's story on Wilson when he verbaled.

I see I wasn't the only one who went "huh??" when I read that. My assumption was also that he is an avid trout fisherman.

I just assumed our wonderful cny fishing locations was part of what sold the kid on committing here. I didnt think it was that akward.

My high school english teacher would have failed him in a heart beat for that snafu. I don't know how many times she would yell at me for putting in random sentences. My whole high school career she would always call me out for things like that. Thats the problem with online articles there is no journalistic integrety. Rutgers campus smells like sewer.
