>>>>>>>>>When 90$ of your staff-generated coverage is sports within the county, it's probably an advantage to have some knowledge of it. Not saying it's a requirement, but that can help. Those people from Timbuktu might not understand if a coach says this is his best player since Sean Gilbert.

I think most sports writers, even the younger ones, would know who a long-time NFL player is. And if they didn't, they can Google it before they write the story.

Institutional knowledge has some value, but any sports writer worth his/her salt is going to do a little bit of background research before & after they've accepted a new job.
