It had been fifteen years since Rock last edited newspaper copy, and he couldn't quite remember an old rule he learned back in the late 1980s, something about always starting with the last ten stories from the night before.
He scrambled through endless copy, but nothing made any sense. There was a story near the top about a high school football coach nearing retirement who had won several state championships. The coach hung plaques at his school that indicated the seasons his teams had done well, but it was nevertheless impossible for Rock isolate his championship teams.
Deadline was minutes away and he didn't have a single story ready for publication.
