    Can tell you with 100 percent certainty that Staunton is a good small down. Nice downtown. If you enjoy mountains/outdoors, enjoy.

    New job is a journalism time machine

    You probably can learn a heck of a lot about journalism there. Take it in while you're there.

    Cover UVA football, Charlottesville VA

    I can't say enough about Charlottesville (the town). Fantastic place to live - no matter what you're looking for. And it's not too far from Richmond and DC. Good town.

    Writers Who Could Be GMs

    Not sure if any of those NFL guys could really be an NFL general manager. I do know that Matt Bowen, who writes for National Football Post and (I believe) the Chicago Tribune at times, could probably be a decent coach or GM.
