‘Metro’ Debate Style: Uptown Man

Today’s Metro Debate Style is a bit truncated. Metro apparently redesigned the page again and now the debaters only get the bottom left hand side of the page. (At least today.)

But that doesn’t stop this from being one of the better Metro debates in a long while. While finally having a debate piece without any Temple students, two of the three debaters do have their eyes closed. Let’s hit the three of ‘em.

• Norman Sparrow: When his parents named him Norman Sparrow, I think it actually meant “our son is going to be an artist.” I don’t think there’s any other profession someone with the name Norman Sparrow can have. (Okay, maybe pirate.) Sparrow also appears to not just have his eyes closed, but to be meditating. Awesome.

• Brianne Donohue: These interviews were done either Tuesday or Wednesday. (Guess: Tuesday, since the question is non-specific.) Question: Was Tuesday an appropriate day to wear a leather jacket? Discuss.

• Uptown Shizz Socks: Uptown Shizz Socks! Our security guard appears to not just have his eyes closed, but to have fallen asleep as well. On the plus side, when your name is Uptown Shizz Socks, you can sort of do whatever you want.
