Do you think Jeff George was the greatest quarterback who ever lived? Do you have a van to deliver copious amounts of barbecue to a Los Angeles playboy's palace? Are you willing to work cheap? I mean, really fucking cheap? Do you live in L.A.? Do you have the ability to listen to a grown man go on and on and on about The Wire? And Mike Royko? Then you may have what it takes to be Jason Whitlock's assistant/intern.
The big guy is now hiring -- but get those dollar signs out of your eyes -- announcing his sycophant search on Twitter last night. Of course, this with a mixture of supreme ass kissing and people telling him to "eat a bowl of dick," which led Whitlock to bitch about kids these days and their MTV.
Here are his Twitter updates from last night:
Seriously, kids, apply. Can you say book deal? This could end up better than the ESPN tell-all.Finally getting an asst/intern. 8-10 bucks an hour. Need to be college educated aspiring journalist who lives n LA. Email ballstate68@aol.
I started at $5 an hour. I'm looking for someone passionate who wants it. I started at the bottom.
You can see what's wrong w/America by some of the responses. People think this shit is easy and should be handed to them.
I lived in a 1-room efficiency w/roaches my first year out of college.... Keep watching MTV and VH1 and the un-reality shows.
Intern search over. Found the perfect candidate. A young, hardworking single mother who is paying 4 J-school working nights at 4play.
Obviously last tweet was a joke. Keep the apps coming. I'm serious about a good intern/asst.

Sign me up. I can watch The Wire all day long. One of the very best television dramas in American television history. I'm even willing to toss a gratuitous "(and Hank Aaron)" paren into every other sentence.
You're right....but idiots run EVERY state in the Union. It doesn't matter who you vote for, because they're all idiots.
The Star sports page has been a boring place since Whitlock left. He keeps it real, and some people don't like that. I read his stuff on fox sports and it's still pretty entertaining.
When he was good - he was really good. The last few years he lost it. I have read some of his stuff since he left and it is is not what it was when he was younger. He was always an immense talent, but he lost it somewhere.
Apparently he hasn't accounted for the cost of living adjustment that needs to be made when moving to LA from the midwest. 8-10 bucks and hour wouldn't buy shit. Good luck with that.
