Soccer writing jobs

[Jim Luther Davis]

You don't get it, dude. There is something wrong with your self-promotion. Moreover, then you have the excuse that English is your second language when someone points out your writing errors? This is buffoonery.

Someone needs to take the stick out of their posterior.

I don't like when other writers castigate others for errors. This forum seems to try and embarrass young writers who are enthusiastic about getting into the biz. Be encouraging instead of snarky. He isn't going to steal your job.

Ruben,

Why don't you contact the L.A. Galaxy (communications/administrative offices), or, indeed, any professional soccer franchise, and see what, if any, internships they may have available now or ever upcoming? Tell the team about yourself, what you're looking for professionally at this point, and go from there. Or, see if you can hook up with a college/university communications office or radio station, even if only on a short-term basis.

I guarantee that being bilingual, particularly with Spanish, is practically the No. 1 requirement and most valued qualification in dealing with pro soccer beats, in broadcasting or print/web media. Or, at least, it is perceived to be so.

Ruben, Speaking two languages is a definite plus for you. Go for it as a broadcaster, radio guy.

Jim Luther Davis, If you read the entire thread, you will see that I didn't comment on his writing abilities, though others did.

BDC99 typed: Certainly, Ruben has a problem as a writer with English being a second language. To Ruben, English language journalism probably isn't in the cards until that improves dramatically to be honest. But, over the air in TV or radio, or with some Spanish Language publications may be an opportunity.

I will take any chance and opportunity I get, whether is writing, broadcasting for radio or tv, film, video editing or coaching. I just want to spend the rest of my life doing what I love. These people of marketing are talking to me about good money... but Idk,my heart is just not there, I go to work everyday and... well, most of you know the answer to that.
