shhh, journalists at work

Does it strike anyone as odd that it is now day 5 since Marquette University had the final vote tally from the first round for the Marquette team nickname and there has been no reports, no leaks of the vote tallys? Am I really to understand Advantage Research and Marquette University have tighter security than the Vatican? Should I really believe the number of votes cast for Warriors is a more tightly held secret than the number of supporters each candidate for Pope had?

Or should I believe The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel staff is more afraid of a little old Jesuit priest like Fr. Wild than most journalists were afraid of excommunication?
