here some very minor "inside" info

todd zolecki, inqy beat writer, is going to mlb.com to cover the phils. no word on who is replacing him at the inqy, though apparently jeff mclane, who covers penn st and big 5 (i see him all the time, dude is all business) feels his is owed it or next in line or something like that.

you care.

[SD_Eagle5]

You should be all over that, they could just swap the last name out and nobody would know the difference.

[MDS]

if the inqy hires a kid straight out of college to do their 2nd most important beat they should be disbanded

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

You're not just any kid just out of college, though.  You're special.

[MDS]

my corks like 12 inches besides that how am i special

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

You're the only writer that uses IGY as your muse.

[MDS]

he makes me

if not i receive beatings

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Hence, you're special.
