    I do not know if this was already discussed but... Did anyone see that Lupica's column on Thursdays from now on will only be available on the Daily News website?

    That's not much of a shock. Sports journalism, in some outlets, are making the change towards new media. For example, Rick Reilly, who is known mainly for his sports writing, announced that he will no longer write columns for ESPN the Magazine. Now, he only does video work. Here's a link to an article on Reilly:

    Perhaps this is the beginning of a pay model for their site? You take your marquee guy and charge admission.

    Here? Very few of us. You'd have to pay me enough to make it worth my while to read his tripe, sing songy columns.

    I don't understand why an "8th-grader" would care about this.
