Michael Rosenberg ‏ @Rosenberg_Mike Close
I am leaving the Free Press to be a senior writer for Sports Illustrated.

 

Huge loss for the Freep (understatement). I like Rosenberg's stuff a lot.

Good for him.

 

Figure he'll be in the back page rotation and help replace Posnanski. Is Selena Roberts still with SI?

 

No, I think she left a while back. Didn't she start her own business or something? I could be wrong.

 

I was working at the SacBee when Rosenberg was an intern. Damn, I'm getting old. Shit, getting nothing; I AM old.

 

Hey, does anyone know if Selena Roberts still is at Sports Illustrated?

 

Great for Rosey.... sucks for the Freep readers who are left with Fiction and Ignorance....

 

Wonderful news. Good for Michael. He was kind enough to let me reproduce some of his work in my book.

 

Good thing is Freep won't need to hire anyone to replace Rosenberg. Mitch can easily fill the role of two columnists. He doesn't even need events to happen to write about them.

 

On the other hand, he's unreadable.

 

Should I have used to blue font?

 

Good for him. I don't understand why anyone with any kind of talent stays at a Gannett paper. Even a big one like the Freep.
