Just bumping this one up. I'll be there on Monday.

Veteran freelancer credentialed for the NFL Scouting Combine, which will be held February 22-28 in Indianapolis. Over 300 college players have been invited and will work out for NFL coaching staffs during the week. Nearly every top player in college football this past season will be there...

It's a weekly, and a fairly crappy one at that. The paper covers a half-dozen or so high schools in the area but doesn't really do a good job at it. I've heard the management is atrocious, and more often than not, you'll be doing asinine deskwork and making sure the pictures of all the Little...

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I come with a simple question, which probably comes with a simple answer - although it's not all that simple. I'm a 29-year-old guy who's been in a relationship for three years with a girl who accepted a job in Arizona in January. We lived in New York - now...

Just a bump if there are any other last-minute takers.

Long-time Big East writer available for freelance coverage of Media Day in Newport, R.I. on August 4. Send a private message to contact for booking or rates.

Anything here? this could be an interesting turnout.

available for coverage of Big East tournament - women in Hartford, men in New York City - from March 6 through March 14. contact me via private message.

just talked to a buddy who works there. the number is 22 total. four editors, nine writers, nine on the desk. then they have four part-timers, so they can be added on at-will. he said there used to be days when they'd have 22 people in there at one night. now that's the staff. sad days indeed.

Let's just say that something that belongs on the top of the newspaper is now stripped down the left side of the newspaper.

You think that's bad? T-minus six days until you see what the braniacs in Hartford came up with.

Anyone know anything here? Seems like a decent small paper?

(Moderators, feel free to move to another forum if necessary.) I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me. I'm preparing a historical essay on the black press in the 20th century and have been looking for circulation numbers for some of the nation's largest papers - the Chicago Defender...

Just a bump. Got one taker, anyone else? We're looking at the top 12 teams in each league going to these tournaments.
