What hurts the most

[malonish]

Was being so close. And having so much to say.

And watching June walk away.

[Stallion]

It was not knowing
What could have been

[malonish]

And not seeing that rehiring June

Was the worst thing to do.

[Stallion]

What was I supposed to do?

There is a weird juxtaposition going on in my head right now:

June nuthuggers are the girl, the haters are the dad, and the apathetic/mediocrity accepting people are the mother. June is the boyfriend of course. The truck is the team and the pregnancy is the lack of recruiting biting us. And in the end the nuthuggers see June as the future.

Okay, here's what I know in XML format:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Team>
<Name>SMU</Name>
<Record>0-1</Record>
<Prediction>4-8</Prediction>
</Team>

//code snippet
public void GetXML(XDocument doc){
string name = doc.Root.Element("Name");
string predictedRecord = doc.Root.Element("Prediction");
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("The {0} team is probably going {1}. Commence panic mode.", name, predictedRecord));
}// That's more like what my schooling was

DANGER! DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!!

C#, the language of the future. Aaaaaaand I probably got that syntax wrong. One sec.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Team>
<Name>SMU</Name>
<Record>0-1</Record>
<Prediction>4-8</Prediction>
</Team>

//code snippet
public void GetXML(XDocument doc){
string name = doc.Root.Element("Name").Value;
string predictedRecord = doc.Root.Element("Prediction").Value;
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("The {0} team is probably going {1}. Commence panic mode.", name, predictedRecord));
}

Fixed it. Silly Malonish, you can't assign an Element to a string...
