i love the cheat method for the columbus dispatch, for those that don't know... the local radio site quit posting links to columbus dispatch sports articles... this was helpful because the dispatch is one of the few papers in the country that is pay on the internet... however, you can continue to run articles through the radio station's site to get around the need to pay... you just have to mess with the url
