6. However, I unceremoniously ended my off-day the way most of us do on the road: ordering room service. Even on a day off, reporters and producers in the field are still working, usually making calls or writing material for the next day. I logged interviews and reviewed notes for our NFL game coverage, which as I’ve come to learn is made much easier with the help of carrot cake or ice cream…or, to the dismay of my workout regimen, both.
The ability to explore new cities is one of the many benefits of being a bureau reporter at ESPN. We don’t always get the chance to see things outside of a practice field or stadium, but when we do it’s worth taking advantage of and, in my case, sharing on the Internet. There’s one familiar sight every city has in common, however, and that never gets old: the camera lens. That I plan to see a lot of this NFL season, and until my next blogging attempt, I hope to see you all on SportsCenter.
