    Need someone to cover Kelly Pavlik vs. Scott Sigmon in Las Vegas (ESPN's Friday Night Fights) on June 8.
    Will need coverage of press conference, weigh-in and fight.
    Email me at todor@vindy.com for particulars.

    Man, I wish I lived close to Vegas. This would be a sweet gig to have.

    I CAN cover the fight and I do live within earshot of Vegas (250 miles)!
    Plus I have 10 years experience covering boxing and several other sports...about 2-3 covering boxing.
    Check out my e-mail w/ resume & clips.

    Wouldn't you be paying for the privilege of covering the fight if you drove from L.A. and spent money on a hotel? If you stop in Baker to get a gyro, it would be worth it, though.

    They already found someone to cover the fight on Tuesday.

    Stitch, quit stalkin' me, fool! Kidding.
    I was going to ask for a little reimbursement for some things, but doubted he or anyone would've provided any. Worth a try overall, though. And yes, back in the '90s I remember the gyros in Baker were and still are quite delicious.
    Are you located in the SoCal/L.A. area, Stitch? Any hints as to who you are? PM me if you dare...
