The Baltimore Banner is seeking a freelancer to cover the CIAA men's and women's basketball tournament, which takes place here from Feb. 25 through March 1. Please email me if you are interested.

Well, I mostly meant that I'd answer questions about the job openings but I'll give this a go. The people who you believe are setting this "orthodoxy" we're afraid to dissent from aren't happy with us, either, and certainly wouldn't claim that we're following in line. As for why we have...

Yes. You won't be dissuaded from writing, especially for the blogs. But it's an editing job.

The Toy Department died when we switched blogging platforms. There's a new general interest sports blog, Baltimore Sports Blitz, that could be this person's responsibility depending on how Ron decides to do things. I haven't really handled the Sunday section over the past year or so because I...

Bump. Last day to apply is Friday. It's a good job. It really is. You'll work with good people, and you'll be encouraged to make your vision for what a sports section should be a reality. Not sure you could ask for much more. Feel free to PM, of course.

Frisco is one of the best people I've worked with in this business. It's our loss.

I've basically been reading through the applications as they come through for the most part. Each one has taken at least 10 minutes, and some have been up to 30 (in the cases where I Google the person and look for more information/clips). I've also spent a fair bit of time responding to e-mails...

Just an FYI (because some have asked)... I'll read all applications that are submitted by Friday. After that, we're hoping to move pretty quickly.

Yes, I'm now the sports editor. I'll also continue being a part of the Indiana beat, as the columnist/enterprise writer/back-up/blogger/tweeter/video guy/whatever. The beat writer will have plenty of help; as you can guess, we have many people involved with our Indiana coverage. As for going...
