Alert: Newspaper veteran Rob Gray named CF senior writer

[Rabbuk]

As someone who lives in Cedar Rapids and thinks the Gazette is pretty bad in terms of actual content, Rob is one of the few actually good columnists.

 

[CyArob]

Rob has written an introductory column in which he will introduce himself to you all. That will be posted here on our front page at 10:30 this morning.

Yes, i'm impatient

Does this mean more vacation time for CW? Good stuff always seems to happen when CW goes on vacation...

Have enjoyed reading Rob's columns the past year's at the gazette. He's an underrated writer, and by that I mean that he doesn't get the attention he deserves. Great addition, and for those who haven't accessed the gazette - you're in for a treat.

i think we need some Blum - Gray column-battles.

Funny thing is, I've been on vacation all week. This is my first day back. However, I worked a lot while on vacation, so it wasn't a true vacation. The legend lives.

Sweet is he going to bring more Motorsports coverage to CF?

Any chance he will be on the podcast sometime soon?

Yes. He will be on once a week during the seasons.

Rob will be on 1460 KXNO with Miller & Brinson today at 4:30 too.

Hey Rob, welcome to the greatest website in the history of the internet.

 

[CycloneErik]

Welcome aboard! This sounds excellent.

Now he can write something and watch the madness begin.......

Also, I predict that CW's big news will somehow still not involve coupons. The man just doesn't get it yet.
