    Need any Washington State and/or Univ of Idaho, and/or opposing teams?

    Hello cpmag,
    I cannot do any game stories, sorry, but I could do feature stories or columns on Sundays and Mondays only, as I work Tues.-Sat.
    I would love to help you in covering Washington State, University of Idaho, Eastern Washington in Cheney, Wash., and maybe even University of Montana and/or University of Washington.....but Missoula, Montana is about 3 hours east of me and Seattle for UW is at least 5 hours west of me, so that may or may not work, but you'd definitely have to reimburse me for mileage, minimum 35 cents per mile. I know most magazines/newspapers don't reimburse mileage for freelancers or stringers, but I'm just saying. WSU in Pullman, Washington and U of Idaho in Moscow you'd have to work mileage into the overall cost somehow though, 70-80 miles or so round-trip is not cheap.

    My name's Bruce Bourquin, I'm a Coeur d'Alene Press sports reporter in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, roughly 30 miles east of Spokane and Pullman and 30 miles north of Moscow, Idaho (my clips can be found on http://cdapress.com/news/sports under the Archives) and I have 11 years of sports reporting experience. Look me up under LinkedIn if you wish as well. My Sports Editor said it's OK to do this as long as it does not affect my full-time job, OK?
    I sent you guys my resume at coachandplayer@gmail.com

    Thanks,
    Bruce
