Want to have a blog of your own?

Do you attend a lot of sporting events? Do you feel that your favorite teams are not covered enough either in The Reporter or on my blog? Do you know how to type in complete sentences?

Then we would like to work with you. We are currently looking for die-hard high school sports fans to help us with a new project.

It's a blog called "The Sixth Man," and will be written entirely by you — the fans. The blog would cover all sports — basketball, wrestling, hockey, baseball, cross country, track, football, softball, soccer and more. We'd like to have a staff of 4-6 writers to start off with, with each one contributing 2-3 blogs a week on any topic involving high school sports.

Did your favorite team have a good game on Tuesday night? Write about it.

Is there a player on another area team that you think is having a good season? Share your thoughts.

Who do you think will win the state championship? Make your picks public.

While we would like to involve high school and college students, this offer is open to anyone in the community as long as you are willing to actively contribute to the blog and regularly attend high school events.

If you are interested, or know someone that does, drop me an e-mail at jcasper@fdlreporter.com and we can talk about it more.
