[Husker] huskermax and owh

[Robert Christensen]

Sam McKowen used to write for Husker Locker and Nebraska State Paper.  I 
still like him much better than the hacks that are at OWH, but I have 
noticed some changes also.  I'm sure the guru sports guy at OWH is 
trying to influence his writing.  I still find the Lincoln Journal-Star 
commentary better.  It seems the OWH has the misguided thought that they 
are "the most important paper" in Nebraska.  I think they have slide a 
long way from the days when they tried to report the news instead of 
manufacture it!

Tweets from OWH writers with links to OWH yielded the same result.  I live on the east coast and I am not going to pay $9.95 a month for the "premium" content.

Did Sam McKewon only recently join the OWH?  I seem to recall his writing for someone else a couple years ago.  At that time I enjoyed reading him as much as any of the writers, but it seems his style or tone or something has changed and I have not found him as good a read lately.  It makes me wonder if the OWH powers that be have been having an influence on him.
