It's the death of journalism... teams are canceling their media guides

The best part about being a journalist was getting a fresh media guide just before the first game, and thumbing through its various pages to see profiles, stats and the all important "Campus life at... insert school here."

However, it appears that some schools are doing away with their media guides. This is a sad, sad day in the world of journalism.

Michigan and Ohio State announced Thursday they will save up to $250,000 by eliminating print media guides, following the recommendations of other conferences.

Somebody shoot me. No Media Guides? Now what will I read when I'm on the john?
