I figured MLB.com would have something like this … but they don't. Or else I'm missing something. So does anyone know of a web page that shows complete MLB box scores from every game, every day, without having to click 15 times?

Update: Thanks to everyone who sent in a resumé. The response was overwhelming. We will certainly look at your resumé if you still want to throw your name in, but the process of contacting potential writers begins today. Again, thanks to all!

HockeyPrimetime.com, a rapidly growing website providing coverage and analysis of NHL, junior, and college hockey news, has openings for knowledgeable and connected journalists to cover the NHL’s Northeast, Southeast and Central Divisions. The focus of the position would be a weekly notebook...

Update: Thanks for everyone's responses. We have closed our search for this position at this point.

Posting this here directly; PM me or reply here with any questions: HockeyPrimetime.com, a rapidly growing website providing coverage and analysis of NHL and World hockey news, is seeking one knowledgeable and connected journalist for its college hockey beat. The focus of the position would be...

So one of those "fan blogger" types stumbles upon my latest NHL training camp notebook on the Web (he's obviously a puckhead) and proudly introduces himself in an e-mail with a link to his blog. He could have used the other major daily's notebook for his Monday entry, he explains, but he wanted...

As an industry, we are in a state of throwing ideas at the wall and seeing what sticks. Here's hoping this doesn't.

The SE gave permission, and I took it. The first check is due to arrive soon.

Ha, it's not Eklund. And I will get it in writing. Thanks for your help, folks. I'll let you know how it goes.

The rundown: I'm an NHL beat writer for a big daily. I have a blog on the side through the newspaper's Web site, but virtually no one – and I mean NO ONE – reads it. A pretty big hockey-only Web site recently invited me to be one of its paid bloggers. Other credentialed NHL reporters have...

Sad, this reminded me that one of my favorite columnists from, say, 10 years ago, who started as a beat writer (and a very good one) was Skip Bayless. I think that's why Joe Fan is tuning in to the PTI- and Around the Horn-type shows, it reminds him of sitting around the bar on a Friday night...

Check out the last answer in <a href="http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/99999999/SPORTS0106/51010006">Steve Ballard's Q&A from Oct. 7</a> on indystar.com: I disagree, simply because I think many venues would face bankruptcy if they went dry. But is drunken rowdiness enough to...

I've always wondered that myself. It's Business 101: Brand-name recognition. They're getting their brand name out there by putting it in the nut graf of every story, whether it deserves it or not. Enigami reports that it's the new "business of journalism." They're marketing themselves as the...

I don't, but that's OK. I've become accustomed to the difference in philosophy. In fact, I've worked alongside people on this thread who agree with you, and never once have I complained about their 10:30 pm f-bombs. With respect to the fluidity of a word's definition over time, I'd love to be in...

Actually, I don't think a word can be inherently profane, either. It's within the cultural context, within its tradition, that it becomes profane. For me it goes back to the fact that we're judged by the words that we choose, and I don't want to be judged/labeled a "profane" person when I can...
