    Fuck no. ESPN has enough of that.

    Talk about a face for radio and a voice for print...

    So back to a business-related topic:

    Does ESPN.com keep all its people on "no benefits" contracts or only some of its people? What determines that, if the latter: Writers vs. editors? "Bloggers" vs. non-bloggers?

    I've got to think that the sports anchors and the on-site staff have benefits, right? So why exclude these writers from that? Seems like a real take-it-or-leave-it mentality, and it probably eliminates some talented journalists who have families but spouses who don't have access to family benefits. The WWL is splitting these hairs because ...?

    I expect to see her on the first all-female version of ATH.

    Jemele, Jill, Erin Andrews and Rachel Nichols

    Does volume help you win? Is that how Mariotti wins?

    I wonder if Jill Erwin knows there's no period in Dr Pepper.

    Congrats to her, whomever the hell she is.

    I also look forward to hearing from my mom or sister telling me about the nice girl they saw at the store who was wearing an ESPN jacket, cursing a mile-a-minute blue streak and ranting and raving into a cell phone at someone who apparently has no sexual stamina.

    Words that piss off the FCC are worth 10,000 pts. So yeah, she wins.

    So Jill works for ESPN.com, eh? brb, gotta switch my homepage to Yahoo Sports.

    Hey, this is great. Now I have a go-to when they make a mistake on their front page, like when they called Tim Tebow the first underclassman to win the Heisman. That correction report site doesn't get checked, apparently.

    Congrats. Hope they have Red Lobsters in Connecticut.
