Good thing it's paid. Otherwise you would've had to post it on the "freelance for free wanted" board.

 

All funny stuff aside in the post immediately above ... HERO Sports has been a wonderful experience for me for nearly 18 months. This crew is professional, the product gets better every single day and we're starting to partner with entities that prove we're moving in a very strong direction. It is a great business model with backing. I have had a blast working with HERO Sports.

If you're a writer/reporter and you dig college hockey, I'd advise you to give this a shot.

 

What is the pay like? Granted, I know you won't get rich, but is it worth the investment?
