It's absolutely gorgeous. The area is great. And you're well within striking distance of places like Austin, San Antonio and Houston. But yes, this paper has had A LOT of turnover in recent years.

Saw "Wonder Woman" last night. Gal Gadot is so awesome. Terrific casting. Hard to see anyone else playing Wonder Woman better. The movie was enjoyable and charming, but a bit too preachy, especially toward the end. It's like the director/producer panicked and rushed dialogue in case no one...

Yes. Completely agree. I don't understand what all the hype is about. The direction and writing were lacking. The acting is the only thing that saves this movie. Has Denzel directed any other movies? It really looks like a first-timer's work.

I worked for a sister paper of the Herald's and covered stuff in Brownsville every now and then. Brownsville is very hot and about 99 percent hispanic. There's not much outside of high school sports, and Brownsville is only really competitive in soccer (it's won state championships within the...

Hello all, My wife recently got a job in Houston, and after nine years in south Texas, we will be moving there in the next week. I am looking for any freelance sports writing work in Houston, or around the Houston area. I have been in sports journalism the last 10 years, the last 4 1/2 as...

Indeed. Great, great movie. "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" is a lasting memory from my childhood, and Wilder is a big reason why.

One of my favorites. Fun movie all around.

Our high school football tab was 60 pages this year, up 4 pages from last year. We had 25 pages for editorial (We cover 33 high schools). It was my first time really in charge of the tab and its direction. It was OK. It could've been a lot better, and I hope it is next year. We had the...

Self/less. Not horrible. The "immortality" bit has been done before, but it was an enjoyable flick. Probably could've done a lot better than Ryan Reynolds as the lead role.

It's the same job. They just haven't filled it yet.

The Monitor, a 41,000-circulation newspaper located in McAllen, Texas, is looking for a sports designer/copy editor to join our ambitious staff. The Monitor sports staff covers a wide range of beats, including high school football, junior league hockey, the NBA Development League, NCAA Division...

Just got back from "Mockingjay, Part 1." Loved it. Good depth, and Jennifer Lawrence is terrific. Solid film-making. I agree that it may not have needed to been split up, but I'll trust that it's deserving of a second act. Best of the series, by a longshort. The first was good, and the second...

Hmmm. I feel the exact opposite. Thought it was horrible. The score was awful, the writing was worse. Thought character development was REALLY poor. Mind you, I never read the book, but I just don't see what the hype is about. I actually think that the fact the author wrote the screen play is a...

At my last paper, we covered little league pretty religiously, simply because there was nada going on in the summer. I dreaded it. What was worse was that our city's teams were pretty decent, even a few World Series appearances. We would do features and gamers from the BIG games, but mostly huge...

A lot of truth to this. No matter where you're working, or who you're writing and/or editing for, it beats the heck out of sitting at home refreshing the jobs forum on this board every day.

Rooting for him, and watching closely. Have thought about venturing out on a similar project on my own but have plenty of reason to hold back.

And the 200 number also happens to be the total amount he was paid for his work at Bleacher Report.

The Purge: Anarchy. I'm impressed at the originality of the concept, which is why I was so disappointed in the first one. Felt rushed, nothing was developed. Bad movie, good idea. The second one is great, though. Much more development, better acting, more thought. Really liked it. This one...

Disagree. Great movie. Smart, and exceptional visuals. The detail is amazing. The pace was good and it kept me interested, which is hard to do for a 130-minute movie.
