    My mistake. It was like that at one of the shops I worked at once, where they were looking for a certain number of buyouts, didn't get the number and whacked about five jobs off the "recent hire" pile. Maybe it's different under the Globe contract, or maybe the folks at my place weren't union.

    Some writers like to be courted even if they already are in a heck of a gig.

    Via Marc Spears' Twitter page:

    "Congrats to ex-Sonics writer Gary Washburn, a former LA Daily News colleague of mine, for replacing me at The Boston Globe to cover the NBA."

    Nice to see Gary back on his feet. I expect good things from him. And nice to see the Globe actually replace Marc.
