I am eager to start grinding on the beat and churning out the best ~300 word game recaps Central Kansas has ever seen.

Are you getting a press pass/credentials?

We'll find out.  Applied for it a couple weeks ago.

Do you ever have to step foot in GB to do the job?

Nah

Nah

This dream could be in jeopardy.

The press pass or having to step foot in GB for the job?

[DQ12]

The pass

[420seriouscat69]

Damn, those things are tough to come by.

You don’t need to be part of the system to cover the cats, see The Boscoes Boys.

Being part of the system was kind of the whole point

DLew, if you want to somehow throw some gE weight behind your pass request you have my blessing. I have no idea how it works but you can work PRO BONO for gE and we'll just link articles from the Great Bend newspaper or some crap. Also that may actually hurt your request.

[420seriouscat69]

Yeah, don't do that.

Doesn't work.  They have weirdly strict rules about sites with message boards.

Guess it’s time for us to start a “separate” newspaper that is “unassociated” with goEMAW.

[Dr Rick Daris]

how does fitz and his goons get passes for everything then? aren't they just a message board now? no publications of any sort?

[420seriouscat69]

They're grandfathered into it and they started with the publication.

[Dr Rick Daris]

They're grandfathered into it and they started with the publication.

grandfathered in? that's absurd and I refuse to believe that's a thing. like "well we'd love to take their passes away too but you know they are grandfathered in and all...".

Web sites that sponsor “message boards” or “chat rooms” where people are allowed to post anonymous information or rumors are ineligible for credentials or access to media functions.

You think you're going to shutdown D Scott from a pass? They've been covering K-State Sports way before it was cool to do so. They have also turned over a lot of written content. I'm sure they take each "message board" by a case by case scenario. Just my  . Every press box I've been to has always had a rivals/24/7 rep or more.

[DQ12]

i wonder if the scout site ever got one.

Perhaps Because they require membership and a credit card it's not considered an anonymous message board 

[DQ12]

Got it all sorted out.

Anyone been through a CEO change before? Like in a smaller corporate company where you actually see and work with them from time to time? The transition is starting this week at my company and my anxiety is through the roof. I was really close with my previous CEO who's retiring. Not sure how much this will change things.

[DaBigTrain]

Is it an inside or outside hire?

[420seriouscat69]

Outside or else I'd be cruising per usual.

[wetwillie]

I’ve only seen it at larger companies and it’s usually a bloodbath at the senior management level
