Birdscribe = JetHawks writer
[Let's call that an educated assumption. That's the only way one person could know so much about a desert outpost.]

 

Actually, Birdscribe = stand-up guy who used to work at this paper for a long time, now does golf PR, but is still obviously well connected to what is happening at his old stomping grounds.

 

I gave it a whirl. I stand corrected.

 

Um, no thanks.

 

And while I used to do more than my share of JetHawks stories (including breaking the story on their move to the AV), let me correct you on another element about this "desert outpost."

This "desert outpost" you refer to is home to more than 400,000 people, including the fastest growing city in California. That's not only a population larger than that of St. Louis, but probably a great deal of the cities that a large portion of the SportsJournalists.com community calls home.

 

Outing alert: Birdscribe is head of the Antelope Valley Chamber of Commerce.

 

Windy City=Chicago Lancaster, 365 days a year.

 

THAT, you got right.

 

I think I applied for their sports writer position. I would love to live in L.A. Went there for Christmas, and had a great time. Just the bad thing is that in CA, you need $texas to survive. 8)

 

Funny, but we don't need that. Not the way they're building up here.

I also left out the five shootings we had here last week. That's 35 for the year, if you're scoring at home.

 

Still, I wouldn't mind coming if it meant stability.
