    It's in freelance because we've seen far more of these offers prove fruitless than fruitful over the years on the job boards, and it's one way to perhaps temper excitement.

    Hey, if this becomes the real deal and pays real full-time cash to real people, I'll sticky their next wave of hires to the top of the jobs board. But if I had a sawbuck for every one of these that never fulfilled its promises, I could play a couple rounds at Pebble Beach.

    Hi Congrats on your new venture.

    I am a freelance reporter/ producer based in south Florida. I mostly cover MMA and boxing because I love those two sports but I have covered baseball and football as well . Pro not a lot of college. One of the areas I have a lot of contacts in are the celebrity driven stories as one of my clients is ET so I often do a lot of cross over lifestyle stories with the more name brand athletes so to speak.

    So for example I was invited to Reggie Bush's photo shoot for a skin care line( gasp) scary I know. I spent the day with Dwayne Wade as he launched his new sneaker etc.

    If you send me your contact details maybe we can connect and if there is a need for a story based out of your region I can follow up. Thanks Susan Cingari.

    Fair point, but anyone can claim or say their site will be great...but almost none have actually done so. On this board at least.

    I'm sure there are a ton of sites that come here with B.S intentions and its fine that the thread got transferred here to freelance. We have to prove that the site is legit and we will.

    All people interested have been messaged.

    Thank You

    I have a buddy who goes by the name JDV, and he may be the person you're looking for to get this startup rolling. His stuff is hot, provably, demonstratively hot. And he has some good connections with Mark McGwire!

    Anybody every hear back from this outfit outside of the initial contact?

    Was curious if any hiring has happened yet.
