    I think F_B was talking about this job being open again.

    Found this: http://reporternews.com/news/2007/sep/29/eagles-outgun-raiders/. But it has a score high up in the story, so I guess they made the fix for the website.

    Yeah, updated three days later.

    There were about 20 comments originally with this story, too, that trashed the lack of a score. Nuked, all of 'em. Someone has that much free time on their hands?

    One of my favorite football coaches I've ever covered is from Abilene. Sammy J. Man, what an honor to cover that program in North Roswell.

    Yes to the second one. Wicked, you always get a pass from me on those deals. :)

    I know Abilene is about three hours from Dallas. ... Does this paper cover the Cowboys?

    No. Like most papers from similar markets (Amarillo, Lubbock, Wichita Falls, Waco, Tyler, Texarkana, etc.), they used to send writers back in the '90s when the Cowboys were winning. Most of those places quit doing that when the Super Bowl trips dried up.

    You could probably get credentials, but any trips would be on your own time and your own dime.

    Hey, puppies. Just wanted to let you know that there is one other person on this site that appreciates good music.
