    When they're both batshit crazy, nobody worries about them going at full force. :D

    The one where the parties in question are engaged - One of the most competitive college beats in the country.

    The one where they're married - Pretty big college beat.

    I'm surprised no one has been outed yet. I'm guessing a lot of people on here know who the married couple is.

    sorry, bud. if we've plummeted that low i'm beyond speechless. obviously i'm aware of the deals our papers have with another to carry some of their stories but in no way is there ever a concern of impropiety -- in our case, we only take gamers and notes from the other paper; we are NEVER given or tipped off to breaking or exclusive news.

    if the married couple in question work for competing papers, sorry, but one of them has to give it up -- for both professional and marital reasons. if the biz has deteriorated to the point of no one caring anymore about such blatant conflict, well, that would be one more reason to be glad i'm on the way out...

    Is it Urban Meyer and Jeremy Fowler?

    Fowler now covers Lord Favre, so he's switched Drama Queens.
