    Covering Water Polo

    Drew my first water polo assignment this afternoon and I was curious to know how those of you with experience have handled prep water polo coverage. Game is tonight at 6 PM CDT, so I expect to wing it a bit out there and load my gamer with quotes, but I hope to draw at least a few more water...

    ChicagoSide partners with the Sun-Times

    ChicagoSideSports.com announced a new content-sharing partnership with the Chicago Sun-Times today.

    Feature on NIU QB Jordan Lynch

    Back to take my lumps again for this feature on NIU QB Jordan Lynch, an unlikely Heisman candidate. Spent a lot of time on this one, so any and all feedback is welcome.

    Feedback on a magazine feature

    I was hoping to get some feedback on a feature I did for a small local magazine that the publishers of the daily I write for produce. It's on a local Jet Skit racer named Jim Cebulski.

    Mothership lets a racial slur slip in a headline on its mobile browser

    Apparently "Linsanity" preoccupies ESPN to the point that they don't give thought to headlines any more. After Lin and the Knicks lost last night in New Orleans, ESPN's mobile browser ran the following headline: "Chink In The Armor" Wow...

    Feedback on a column

    Hey guys, new to the site and to the business and I was hoping to get some feedback. I don't have a traditional journalism background but I started writing as a hobby and picked up some paid work over the last year or so. I was applying to a job for a regional website that aspired to be a...
