WELCOME BACK, ALPER

In July, Josh Alper had to exit the PFT family unexpectedly. We’re very happy to announce that, as of October 13, he’s back. Alper also writes for AOL’s FanHouse. Tom Mantzouranis, who replaced Josh, has recently taken a full-time position at FanHouse. Several weeks ago, we put out a call for new writers, once we learned that Tom would be leaving us. Even though we specifically limited the process to folks with experience, we received more than 300 submissions. We’ve narrowed the process down, and we think we’ve got a couple of potential new additions whom we’ll be announcing soon. And, no, Matt Millen isn’t one of them.
