    Word is this one was filled too. I'd be curious to know who they took. I know some very talented people who got rejected.

    They have a Facebook page for the sports department and they posted the new writer there - Selig is the last name, I think? No relation to Bud. I may also have the name wrong. I'll try to look it up. I'm a "fan" of the page.

    Found it:

    Daily News-Record Sports Department Mark Selig, the newest member of the staff -- his primary beat is JMU men's basketball. Beyond that, it's a total hodgepodge. He's a native of suburban Boston and a 2009 grad of the University of Maryland's journalism school.

    Seriously? I was being a wise guy with my crack earlier - you know that for certain?

    A quick search finds that Bud Selig has no sons nor grandsons, only daughters and granddaughters.

    I obviously didn't get this, but I did get an email from Chris letting me know my status.

    I thought it was a nice move and much appreciated, since most of the stuff I send out gets nothing back in terms of a reply.
