Prep sports writer, Tallahassee, Fla.

Appears Mary Beth is off to Hawaii: http://www.tallahassee.com/special/blogs/mbishop/.

 

Good luck to Mary Beth. Brad Sherman in Maui is a very dedicated SE, and I hope she enjoys Maui.

 

Sounds like a perfect job for Jenn Sterger. She's written for SI.com!

Seriously, some poor sophomore kid would wet himself if she showed up to interview him. Of course, so would a lot of us older folks too, probably.

 

But would you show her mug shot on columns?

 

That salary is less than most Lincoln High School players get to sign with Diddy.

 

Jim Lamar is a good dude and you'll be covering plenty of D-1 football talent.

 

You gotta be joking. Lamar may be good people but from what I've read he's a hack as a writer. Check out the preseason football paper, it's way down in quality. The section was much better before he took over. Where is Randy Beard now? Where is Jack Corcoran? There are a bunch of bylines in the sports section that are new, and the stories read like they are written by high school kids.

 

Hot damn, I might have a shot at this!

 

I was thinking exactly the same thing.

 

that paper is a complete joke now - it's in total shambles.

 

I'll second that -- and it started with Gannett taking over two years ago.

 

I'd be a fool not to apply!
