|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Florida State auctions off a media pass Thomas Campbell, Photographer Houston/San Antonio | TX | USA | Posted: 7:18 PM on 08.28.09 ->> http://www.seminoles.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/080309aab.html Considering the Kelby stuff, this is kinda funny.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (3) | Huh?

That's probably more then every legit media person in the room is making for being there for that day.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

It isn't for an actual game.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Instead of sending a staff photographer to an event, or paying a freelancer to do it, they can auction off their credentials to the highest bidding GWC - this'll be bigger than the classifieds were in the 80's! Black is white, up is down, cats and dogs living together. It's brilliant, I tell ya!  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (4) | Huh?

No more paying salary and benefits, rather have the "employee" pay you to shoot. Brilliant!  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Florida State is having trouble selling tickets to games. Plenty of good tickets available for the Miami game in a couple of weeks. Not good.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I see nothing about an auction for a media pass.  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?
