Season 19 NDL: ESPN Staff
Posted: Sun Jul 25, 2010 9:58 am
I am posting this here because keeping up with the massive amount of PMs is impossible. It will also give everyone a common ground to discuss and ask for help if needed. My PM box fills too quickly and I need to save it for articles from you guys.
First off, DO NOT post articles here.
The outlook for season 19 and beyond: The goal of this season is complete integration with the site. We are going to be using the homepage more and more. What me and Holmey are working on is having the media page to work with our articles. On the homepage will be the latest article from whoever. To the right will be the last 5 posted articles. Holmey is gonna give me access to post on that page, so if you want your articles there, pm me and I'll post them. If you want to post them on the boards, you can, it is your choice. I am asking that you please use the website though as it really really help out. If you don't want to post in the forums, that is your choice. I'll create a topic every week that you can post your articles in, you can use it or make your own topic, up to you.
The Staff is as follows:
Uuaww: Head of NDL: ESPN
Ank: Senior writer
6ftdeep: Senior writer
dolemitesooner: Full writer
sammy33:Full writer
Jsence2: Junior writer
nick: Junior writer
UnTouchable8: Junior writer
Champdizzle: Junior writer

Midmajor Games of the Week- Champdizzle (even), Untouchable8 (odd)
Upset Alert- 6ftdeep
Game of the Weak- dolemitesooner
Bitter Rivals- Sammy33
NDL Cup Watch- Uuaww, nick
Heisman Watch- Ank
Ware Watch- dolemitesooner
Interception Challenge- Jsence2
Flavorful 8- Jsence2
Pick 6- 6ftdeep picks his top 6 teams
Bottom 10- dolemitesooner
Weekly Rant- anyone who wants it
Island Fever (will be an in-depth look at the Top 25)- Uuaww
The Next 25- Sammy33
Champdizzle and Untouchable8 will hopefully be adding another article with coaches interviews and/or quick picks
Junior writers, if you have questions and I am not available, feel free to ask a senior or full member. Each writer has strengths and can help you out if you run into trouble.
Above all else, DO NOT QUIT. If you need to resign, and stop writing, LET US KNOW. We can cover for you. If you need to miss a week, LET US KNOW, we will figure it out. The worst thing you can do is just stop writing. A few of you have done it in the past, and you know who you are. If you do it once this year, we will have someone else replace take over your articles.
If you are wondering when your articles are due, the traditional time has been every Thursday/Friday. This is the opportune time to have your articles written due to AJ opening games Friday night. So the weeks games have been played but the next weeks (that we are often highlighting) haven't been played.
Preview articles (Games of the Week, Bitter Rivals, Upset Alert, Game of the Weak) are the most imparitive to get done as close to this time as possible. More leeway is given with review articles (Top 25, Watches, etc.)
Questions? Concerns? Post them here.
