    I would stay up to watch Late Night with Jimmy

    Conan rules. He's man at the head of a creative staff that came up with the Walker: Texas Ranger lever. What an amazing bit. I just hope he is allowed to still be his naturally funny self when he takes over for Leno. The worst thing NBC can do it to try to change Conan into a Carson/Leno hybrid...

    Bosses

    A drink would be good right now. I'll have to check on the 'licker" story. Actually, I have a great boss. He was just giving me crap, so I thought I would publicize it.

    Bosses

    It's almost 1a.m. and my boss is kicking me out of the office. And I've only worked 20 hours in two days. :)

    Best SC commercial. For me it's a toss up between 'Y2K' and 'Big Buddy.' Any takers?

Granted this is secondhand information, but from what I know, the Telegram is a good paper where someone new can get his or her feet wet and learn the basics of how to cover sports.

    Using MySpace to contact players?

    As someone who was in college when the whole facebook fad started and still has a profile even though I'm in the real world, I don't think there is anything wrong with having a profile and using it to research stories. Now, contacting sources on there should only be considered as an absolute...

    Reporters wearing local team apparel?

    You've got to be kidding. I may not be the most experienced journalist on here, but seriously, that is one of the first things I learned when covering a sports beat back when I was in college. heck, I went to a major D-1 university with a strong football program. The first game I covered was...

    Aspiring journalist seeks answers

    I agree with most of what these others have said. As a recent college graduate -- last May -- I am fairly new to the field. I didn't decide until halfway through my college career that I wanted to be a sports journalist. Honestly, the best thing you can do is get all the experience you can. You...
