I knew a guy from Buckhannon once. Nice guy. We called him poop-tooth, because, um, he had a poop-tooth. He also had a smoking hot girlfriend, somehow, but she was stolen away early upon their arrival at college and then passed around like a pair of dice.

That's my Buckhannon story. That along with a year's worth of watching sports games will get you $15,000.

What if I love watching bad sports games? Does it put me out of the running? :

 

[JME]

No, but the Bad Sports Game beat job only pays 12 large. :'(

I hear there's a housewife in Morgantown that's their leading candidate.
For that salary, they better grab her fast.

 

[JME]

Too late. She just got snagged to cover the cops beat for her mobile home complex's monthly newsletter.

Next candidate: Pickle Juice

i did, she wasn't that good.

... but she was stolen away early upon their arrival at college and then passed around like a pair of dice.

Tremendous.

 

[Mighty_Wingman]

Remember, the ideal candidate will have a lot of enthusiasm, and drive (sic).

At least until he or she's been on the job about a week.

 

[Ace]

I wouldn't mind getting paid a pittance for watching games -- long as I didn't have to write or anything.

 

[Hank_Scorpio]

This does say $15,000 to $20,000.

I'm sure it's not $20,000, but it's likely not $15,000 either. My guess would be $17,000, which you can still make more at McDonalds.


Now back to our regularly scheduled thread.




And Ace, maybe someday you can get to the Plain Dealer and just watch games.
