    Worked with Wolfson a bit when he was Chad Hartman's producer and he was also on-air on KFAN, before Hartman was cut loose. Seemed like a good guy.

    Guess Andy didn't get the Seattle job.

    Is it really good? I thought these jobs were paying part-time money for a full-time commitment and they wouldn't allow you to freelance. Or am I thinking of something else?

    Wish they paid better. This is PT at best, but it's hard to be PT when you are sitting in a hotel at training camp. I hope it takes off and CBS improves wages.

    Yeah, I'm pissed I didn't know about them, especially since the guy hired in my city is pretty inexperienced.

    A few people have PMd me to say it's part-time freelance pay with no benefits and they will not travel. Can anyone confirm?

    This is the same thing, right?

    Yep, and it's a thread that could probably get some Hall of Fame consideration.

    Congrats to Jeff Shain as well as Aaron Lopez. Both former co-workers and both great guys. They'll do great.

    There are some good names on that list. I was expecting a bunch of kids straight out of college.

    [blue]I'm sure actually landing some people with talent and experience, as opposed to just fanbois, will inspire CBS/Bleacher Report to provide better wages.[/blue]

    That those names are there says much about the horrific state of the industry these days.
