I got one where an old boss of his called me and explained why he would be the best fit for the newspaper. The old guy wouldn't shut up so I discarded the other guy's resume. Then, there was one, where a leader in the community tried to put pressure on us to hire a family friend of his who...

Guys, if you have any questions about this job, please ask me. I am the outgoing sports editor - Chris Stephens. I'm leaving the paper in April to take a high school teaching position where I will teach journalism and English come next August. I can give you all of the specifics about the job if...

I honestly feel very fortunate that I sought the opinion of my father on this matter when I was thinking about taking a CA job when they offered me one. With my dad being a detective for a county police department, he did some researching of his own and found out some good information for me and...

Found out the pay is $450/week for the first 90 days and then it goes to $475/week. It's not much, but we all know the state of the newspaper business.

Cartersville is about 30-40 minutes from Atlanta, depending on how heavy of a right foot you have. Some interesting notes about Cartersville: NFL running back Ronnie Brown is from there, the baseball team just won a state title with the No. 3 pick in this year's MLB Draft on the team - Donavan...

I definitely would toast a beer with you on handing in your resignation at the most opportune time. Nothing like seeing their jaws drop to the floor when you do that. I think after I handed in my two-week notice, I played Martin Luther King's speech over and over on my iPod in my truck...well...

So, I figured I would post a message on here being that I used to work in the Neighbor papers as a sports editor. I apologize in advance because this is long, but I need to finally get this out. It's a weekly and the pay sucks. The managing editor is a control freak and he works out of his cushy...

I too was interviewing for a state content coordinator position. And, was told he wanted to meet me on the side of the road somewhere on I-95 as he had to be in Jacksonville for another big group meeting. I was going to have to drive 4.5 hours there and 4.5 hours back just for a 30 minute...

Well when your newspaper has a two-person sports staff and one gets fired, you still have to hire somebody else. It's a small town, so we're not too bad off financially.

When it comes to Uga, people across the state loved that dog. He represented so much. Some UGA men would actually wait until media day when they got their picture with Uga, to propose to their girlfriends. Uga is much more than a dog to the Georgia community. He represents strength even when...

My newspaper is currently going through a hiring process and we have gotten some resumes from females. Problem is, none of them have any previous experience in the field. Of the four that have applied to the associate sports editor's position on a two-person staff, one has a journalism degree...

And now, there's more to this story. The umpire is likely to sue and with the video evidence, he is likely to win. Although the catcher lost preferred walk-on status at Gordon College, he is now going to go to Middle Georgia College where they will give him the chance to walk-on to their team.

The catcher was given preferred walk-on status, which really doesn't mean anything more than he would get more of a look than the other walk-ons. That's all he lost. It wasn't a scholarship.

The background to this story is the previous inning, the pitcher's brother was called out on strikes, which was the ninth strikeout in a row for the opposing team. They were arguing the calls all game long and weren't happy with the home plate umpire. What makes this even more interesting is the...

Recently, I covered a high school state baseball championship game in Cartersville, Ga. The link below shows one of the pitches during the game. I just want to get everyone's take on this. It's been a major event going on because the catcher allowed the ball to hit the umpire. It's dominated the...
