Not bad for a machine translation. However, it points out the need for human intervention. |

Good old Davidson University.
I think it is definitely true that he is stronger up on the ring. It scares me a little that the shotgun is better than last year though. And it is not clear to me why his additions are the result of unnecessary work this summer.  |

I may have mentioned this before. Back when I did a website for the town of Badin where I lived, I posted the town brochure in both English and French, since the town was founded by the French. I used Google Translate and then went back and cleaned up what I could, using my faint memory of high school French. I was surprised to find the existence of the dreaded bald-eagle-fish, a species I had never heard of before. I checked back to the English, that said something like "see the bald eagle occasionally fish here."
Bienvenue à Badin Historique
As my disclaimer on the language, I put, "Si vous pensez que la langue français dans cette page est très bizarre, souvenez vous qu'il y a 100 ans depuis les Français ont abandonné cette ville." _________________ Μεγάλη ἡμÎÏα εἶναι ΛÏγξ |

Looking forward, this Friday, to a whole day of "unnecessary work". 😆 |

" I feel safer with the ball, stronger up on the ring and the shotgun is better than last year, "said this great director of the game, moreover, by his coach."
I get the gist of it.. i think. |

So "shotgun" had me a bit stumped. In context, if he is saying that be feels more confident in protecting the ball and taking it to the rim, then I guess the "shotgun" is his improved shooting. From observations of his progress this year, all seem to be very accurate statements. JAG has become an Icelandic superhero. |
