Is Stef Loh leaving?

Thought I remembered seeing on Twitter that she was heading to Seattle to cover WSU/Gonzaga.

 

[Tweener]

You are correct. That was announced last month.

 

[Runner]

I'm wondering why this isn't listed on the SD Union Tribune web site?

 

[Riddick]

I'm wondering why that matters

i sent in my info in the middle of this month. heard back yesterday they got over 200 resumes and are sorting through them and they hope to "narrow down the list in the next three weeks or so."

 

[Larry Graham]

Hey folks,
We were pleasantly surprised with roughly 200 applicants for the job. Hopefully, I was able to respond to you all without anyone slipping through the cracks.
For those of you still submitting resumes after the deadline, your clips will be kept on file, but will not be considered for this position. Sorry for the hard-line approach, but considering the number of applicants, I hope you all understand.
Todd M. Adams and I will narrow down the list over the next couple of weeks.
As usual, if you have any questions, email me. However, I likely won't respond immediately since I'm out on paternity leave.
Cheers.

If he's hired at San Diego, can I have Matt's job in Colorado?

I didn't apply. Met Larry at APSE and was being genuine.

 

[steveu]

Darn. Matt, you know we're just giving you a hard time. Or at least Doc is giving someone a hard time. I'm so confused. All kidding aside, good luck to whoever gets this!

Totally joking Matt. Smile man. It's good for the soul.

Thanks, Matt.
I plan on sleeping again any day now.

I have heard Larry Graham is "One In A Million" (Late 70s and 80s music reference)

 

[steveu]

But is he a chance of a lifetime?

But is he a chance of a lifetime?

Only if life shows compassion.
