Prep Sports Writers needed
OK, it's not THAT extreme but you get the idea.
Here's the deal, we're always looking for correspondents to cover Friday night football games, and since all the experts reside here, I thought I'd start with you. We generally don't ask that you write too much, and in some cases will just ask that you call in the box score with a recap of the game.
You will receive a press pass to cover the games from the sidelines or in the press box, and be paid a small fee for your time.
If you're a journalism major or thinking about it, this is ideal. If you're a football junkie who can spell, this will be great for you also. We're thinking of having a correspondents meeting late next week so get back to me as quickly as possible. To be considered, please send an email with your contact information to set up an interview.

p.s. Hey bruinlaker4, I read your comment from the previous entry and to answer your question, yes, we will be needing a few people to help us cover football games. Shoot me an e-mail and we'll go from there. Thanks for the nice comment and yes, Go Bruins!
