Herb Teope back to KC, joins the KC Star
 

...as the new Chiefs beat reporter!

He was another good one, who went to NO for a better gig, and now comes home.

I don't recognize him at all, even though he evidently appeared on Metro Sports at some point.

What happened to what's-her-face?

Sorry if I didn't click on the megathread because my eyes glazed over it.

Pryor hasn't even confirmed she's leaving at this point.

She only confirms things after others do, so thats normal.

I'd bet she knows her "career" is over here. Look for her to join a Murdock paper or, more likely, to establish her own blog.

I thought someone reported that she left for Pittsburgh or Buffalo. What happened to that?

I told you guys Pittsburgh.

Bye bitch.

I bet that’ll forced Ben into retirement. She’ll have a field day with his past.

Pryor never took a job in Pittsburgh. She was there for just a day

I always loved Herbie's work so this is great news.

Will Pryor and The Star be able to resist another op/ed trashing the fans for her departure?

Watch her not leave but they move her to writing editorials...

Assuming this is the source, it's oddly been deleted.

I mean, he's still technically the beat writer for the Saints, no?

So...maybe a slower rollout is in order.

But lord God please make this so. Teope was good in a steadily and reliably solid sort of way. He wasn't Terez or even Babb, but he was good.

And man would he EVER be a welcome replacement for what the Star has given us. I mean, I still won't give them any money again until Rosen is gone, but I'll at least go back to clicking on their links.

If true, that’s good news. He’s pretty good. Enjoyed reading his reports.

If the old DI is coming back its great news he wonderful just a bit sad it to that rag.

Although I don't see anything on nola.com newer than Monday, his twitter is still full of Saints stuff today.

Wonder if somebody at the Star put out something they weren't supposed to.

Yeah, that's my guess. The article I linked is still up on Google, and it's not at all ambiguous.

I wonder if they had yet to inform Ms Pryor of her soon to be unemployment.

The original article said Pryor was offered/taking a job with ESPN covering the Steelers, so if true she is leaving for a bigger and higher paying gig.

ESPN giving a reporter who covered a social justice story a better paying job would be par for the course.

True!

At least it’s the ****ing Steelers. I can’t stand them, so I’m happy for her if this is true.

That 'somebody' at The Star appears to be Jeff Rosen.

That's as close to a cached version I can get (pretty poor at that) and Rosen is clearly the byline.

Sure seems like this might be happening. First day is/was set to be 9/23 - the day after the home opener. Guess they already bought Brooke's plane tickets...

Article is back up (at the same link) so this is now officially official.

Guess they waited for Pryor to announce she was leaving?

The appearance of moving on instead of being forced out.

So, where did you get that information?

Dumbass.
