Darren Lyn to man "one-man Houston bureau" for ESPN
The Chronicle's Ken Hoffman checks in on former KTRK-13 reporter Darren Lyn, who has snagged himself a nice position with ESPN:
FOR former Channel 13 reporter Darren Lyn, a self-confessed "sports junkie and die-hard news nerd," it's the dream job come true.
ESPN has hired Lyn to cover hard sports news stories for SportsCenter, Outside the Lines and ESPN News.
This week Lyn is at ESPN headquarters in Bristol, Conn. "learning the ESPN way of doing things."
And Lyn's dream job just got dreamier. He's been told he can continue to live in Houston.
"I'll be traveling around the country doing stories, but I'll be based in Houston. I'll sort of be a one-man Houston bureau," he said.
Congratulations to Lyn for scoring such a sweet gig.
In case anyone from Sports Illustrated is reading (unlikely), we know some guys who'd be more than happy to man a Houston bureau for you!
