An anonymous reader writes "You would think that the NCAA would be thrilled to have reporters live blogging events in order to generate more interest and keep passionate fans talking about NCAA sports. Not so. The governing body of the NCAA has released it's rules for receiving press credentials and it includes severe limits on live blogging. If you're covering NCAA football, make sure you don't blog more than 3 times in a single quarter (better hope nothing much happens after that third post). If it's baseball, once an inning is all you get. If you don't follow the rules expect to get ejected and have your press credentials pulled. Freedom of the press apparently means something different to the folks who run our college sports programs."
