All he had to do was re-write that very same material in his own words. Maybe add a couple things here or there. It would've taken him a few minutes. What a moron!
While Cold Hard Football Facts has been leading the charge on this, and really gone a long way in getting this story out there, it appears the issue was first noted in this ESPN.com messageboard post by a Seattle fan and trickled out from there to various other boards and websites.
"The similarities between the two articles were first reported here on Cold, Hard Football Facts.com late Sunday night...
Good luck with the operation! I hope you remember which bathroom to use afterwards.Gawd! This terrific Borges thing and all the Pats great FA activity and tomorrow AM I leave the country and internet access for 10 days. Bummer.

No you wouldn't. You'd get a zero for the paper, probably fail the course. Maybe you'd be suspended a semester. But colleges do NOT routinely expel students for garden-variety plagiarism. (Sometime I'll tell you about the time in grad school when some of my fellow TAs tried to get members of our div 1A football team punished for blatant cheating on a test. Ha, good luck little TAs.)

Of course, CHFF is still trying to muscle themselves into center stage on this one, saying on their site's update,
Apparently, real, big-time independent football websites like CHFF can "first report" a story long after it's been put forth and discussed at length on a message board... ironic, considering how they often whine about not being cited enough by the Main Stream Media, and now they've turned around and "big leagued" Seattlestatman right out of the picture.
