After some debate, I'm thinking of starting a sport site with sports NEWS and STORIES not ESPN drama.

I'm looking for people that would be interested in writing a something every couple days for the site. I'm debating names and looking for a staff.

Your work would be non-profit unfortunately.

Anyone interested?

Also, some sports like NHL, NASCAR, etc.. will definitely need writers because I'm sure NBA, NFL and MLB will be easily filled.

I know SQ is interested and I'm sure he'll want NBA. ;)

ALSO

This will not be state specific AKA it will not cover just OHIO teams. It will cover the sports in general.

It works and has potential. I just sent a PM to everyone who has responded to send me and e-mail so I can start a mailing list so that we can discuss some things.

Sounds like a great endeavor I could throw in some info about obscure sports like Seven Nations Rugby. I couldn't contribute often so I would take something that not everyone is clamoring for.

If sq_crazies is going to write the NBA I would call his column Dumb and Dumber and you would have plenty to critique.

Im all over soccer!!!

I can cover USA, World Cup, English Premier League, Spanish La Liga, and maybe some Italian and German leagues (if I get the time). But I can for sure write some stuff for the other stuff on my days off (usually 3 days a week, sometimes more sometimes less)

For the love of fuck, make sure you get some objectivity in the College Football section. If it's an OSU/Big Ten lovefest, all you've done is replicated ESPN and replaced USC or UF/SEC with OSU/Big Ten.

The rest of the sections should be pretty easy, but it's hard to get a CFB person with an actual objective opinion.
