    That's the first big-ticket hire they've announced in a while. They lost a bunch in between.

    Transfer portal claims another.

    I’m old enough to remember when he was assigned to the Jackson bureau.

    I got the notice that my subscription expires next month and it would be $72 to renew. I went to cancel and was offered $19.92 for the year so I took it, even though it's almost double the $9.99 I paid for the past 12 months.

    I’m the sucker who forgot to cancel and got stuck with the $72.

    My subscription is free because it was a work thing for my ex years ago and the university hasn't cancelled it. Although it pisses me off with its Trump "coverage."

    FYI that I went to cancel my subscription today (was due to renew at the yearly rate of $71.99 next week) and I got an offer to remain a subscriber for $9.99...a year. Which means I'm slated to pay two bucks less for the next 12 months than I did canceling & re-upping under a different account for the Cyber Monday deal ($1/mo for 12 months) last year. Congrats The Athletic! A sportswriter barely qualified to balance his checkbook just saved some money at your expense! :D So anyway, check your sub and see if you can do the same thing.

    I always cancel whenever I renew on pretty much all subscriptions because I'll almost always get the reduced rate to stay.
