I HELPED THE BASKETBALL GAMES YESTERDAY.


4 hours!

Mine, along with a majority of people in our class, want to do something in the sports industry when we all graduate and start off on our own. Most of us also know this will be close to impossible. No one will ever reach the top right off the bat, that’s like hitting a baseball and automatically thinking it will be a home run. I know I want to do something involved with sports and broadcasting. Before, I used to always say I would be the next Erin Andrews, but a little less promiscuous. I wish we had a sideliners job here for our sports show, because unfortunately I have only been able to work behind the camera, on the sidelines. Erin Andrews graduated from the University of Florida with a BA degree in Telecommunications. After graduating, she worked for many companies in Florida. She started working for Fox Sports Florida as a reporter, then for Tampa Bay Lightening as a reporter for the Sunshine Network, and then later covered the Braves, Thrashers, and Hawks all based out of Atlanta for the Turner South Network. Now, she is a sideline reporter for ESPN. She worked the sidelines for ESPN College Football Saturday Primetime as well as for the Big Ten college basketball games. Even though she is not doing professional sports yet, what she does is very exciting. Right now, she is making around $200,000. Good communication skills are needed for this job, obviously. As well as knowing the history of sports and sports teams. She needs to be able to shoot out question when interviewing the players before, during, and after the games.
