Don't you have to have a working vocabulary of more than 100 words to write for Hoopsworld?

 

[BTOWN_HUSTLA]

perhaps.

Which means there'll be an opening at your current place. I'd apply for it but I have a real job.

No. That's the MAXIMUM ... which is probably why Wendell got the boot.

Maxey had this to say in his blog about his departure from HW

Guess you could say I wasn’t happy with the beat lately for many reasons.

Credibility and professionalism played a part. They go a long way in my book when it comes to writing and matter far more than pageviews in a content plan. Always will. And that is the foundation in which I’ve attempted to work by since getting into this racket back in 2003. I just don’t believe those pillars are strongly practiced anymore with particular web publications. That was extremely concerning to me and weighed heavily in my recent decision to fly solo.

Again, there were other factors. That just happens to be one I couldn’t compromise any longer.

This guy has obviously got a lot to learn. Integrity and credibility will only get you so far. You need sensationalism to make waves these days. Doesn't he ever read the Oregonian? What a dummy.
