It will be nice when this article does come up.....some in-depth reporting on the season turnaround was a "good read" IMO!

In a nutshell......The season turned around when JL started making the players do their own laundry.

Maybe it is me, but it seems like with each passing day the PJS keeps cutting more corners on their website, and their paper. Quality control has gone to crap in the last 6 weeks, IMO.

They've had to lay off a considerable number of people..

It is very obvious in the product they are currently presenting.

As much as I have ragged on the PJS it is a shame to what is happening across the country with the newspaper business because the impact it has on true journalism. The impact will be felt now and well into the future. It was a journalist who exposed Watergate and many other corruptible behavior in our society. Which profession/group are we going to count on to watch out for elective officials that over step their boundaries? I do not trust that a government agency will always do what is right do to the nature of how the top guys get there.

I wish the the journalistic profession a lot of luck and may another medium, not called blogs, build up a global enterprise of news we can believe in and know that it was not manipulated for someones self-interest.

Amen, SFP. And I don't just say that because I'm in the newspaper business. I wonder what people will do if (when?) newspapers die off.

another medium, not called blogs, ...

blogs often give the readers exactly what they want, don't charge, often don't sell advertising, and are sometimes pretty darned good and accurate...so why are you down on blogs.

Blogs are like getting your gas and electric for free instead of having to pay for it and deal with a large corporation who won't listen to the customers

And I know you are going to say something about "accountability"...but then who really knows...we have seen that a lot of so-called reputable sources also have little accountability and can be very wrong and biased....all the while claiming to be unbiased.

The great papers of our time had editorial integrity! Blogs can say whatever they want and do not have to be accountable to know one at all. Blogs can be frightful if citizens start really looking at them for true un-biased new source for everything. I do not mind blogs for sports, entertainment and even educational material but when it comes to serious issues in our society and we are only looking at Blogs then I bet you we are getting manipulated. Blogs are and should be treated as editorial write sections of todays papers. Newspapers warn you about the editorial pieces. Who is warning the uneducated masses about blogs and the truth? I would not mind a world of blogs if I believed the world was truly educated and the regular Joe could make informed decisions instead of depending on others to shape thier views.

BTW...You get what you pay for! Someting for nothing is usually worth just that.
