Bidding farewell
Everyone give a rousing send-off for one of the last stalwarts from my heyday as a sports writer with the Banner-Herald. Young Charles Shepard is heading for greener ... er ... completely different pastures in Jackson, Miss.
Chaz was hired as a copy editor during my final year as prep sports editor and worked his way up the ranks to cover the Georgia men's basketball beat (if that's working your way up or not is a whole different story). A bit sad to see the lad go. The ranks of those willing to grab a beer with me are dwindling.
Where have you gone Lancaster and Rosecrans and Texas?

Billie Joe MacAllister ... excellent reference ... and I mean either the song or the movie.
