Castle Rock, CO (PRWEB) March 7, 2011

Any avid sports fan knows that there is only one thing more exciting than watching the big game ? talking about the big game. Of course, finding someone new who will listen to you ramble on about the latest sports news or football game is a bit hard after your wife and buddies have already learned to tune you out. The good news is if you go online you can find plenty of people to listen who are just as crazy about sports as you are, maybe even more so depending on where you go!

If you live, breathe, and practically survive off the thrill of watching the latest football or basketball game, and always have something to say about the latest trade or industry scandal, then it may be time to join a good sports social network. Not only will you finally have the chance to offer an opinion that others are interested in, but you will get the chance to read others opinions in a sports blog, or debate the merit of a team’s latest decisions with others who care about the sport just as much as you do. One of the most user friendly sports social networks is Sports-Glory.

The advantages of heading to a sports network like Sports-Glory, is that you will always get the latest sports news first and get it from those who actually care. A network like Sports-Glory allows you the opportunity to write your own in-depth analysis about how a trade or coaching decision is making or breaking a team. There simply is nothing better than reading about the latest NFL, NBA, MLB or NHL gossip from those who actually know and care about what it means. Plus, the chance to comment and add your own two cents about every sports gossip in a very ‘Mike& Mike’ manner is pretty hard to pass up.

With the NCAA Men’s College Basketball Tournament coming up, right now is the perfect time to jump on Sports-Glory. The website is hosting a great basketball contest, the 2011 Sports-Glory College Basketball Bracket Contest. Contestants will have a chance to win $ 1 million if they have a perfect bracket.

Basketball and the tournament is not the only sport getting juicy online. Hockey and baseball are heating up, and with the season in full gear, there is plenty to talk about there as well. There’s always the athletes’ drama to talk about, like the LeBron James decision or the Tiger Woods fiasco. With so many people online you can hear the scoop firsthand from the team’s hometown fans that you may be missing from the large media outlets. In short, if sports are the center of your world, then it’s time to join and make your free social network profile on Sports-Glory.com.

Columbus, Ohio (PRWEB) November 20, 2005

For the past 11 years parking at BMI Federal Credit Union for OSU games has been a staple in game day festivities for many fans. BMI FCU?s CEO/President, Sharon Custer, utilized their neighboring location to The Ohio State University to offer BMI FCU?s parking lot as an option for the devoted OSU football fans. By charging a small fee to park for OSU home games, BMI FCU has raised over $ 60,000 for Central Ohio charities and community events since 1994 making a big impact on community.

In 2005 and 2006, BMI FCU stands to raise nearly $ 22,000 with the season?s proceeds going to the local Habitat for Humanity program. Jen Erb, HR Manager for BMI Federal Credit Union, has championed the project in 2005 and 2006 with CEO/President Sharon Custer. This project will be a local Credit Union sponsored home with money coming from all Credit Union League affiliated organizations in Central Ohio, and will afford a family in need the ability to become home owners. With BMI FCU raising the $ 22,000, they will be giving 30% of the proceeds needed to sponsor a home while having fun hanging out with OSU fans. Erb acknowledged, ?It is the essence of the credit union motto “people helping people” and just another example of how credit unions join together to support the community and our members.?

BMI FCU donates the proceeds from parking for OSU home games to different charity associations each year, and will continue to be a part of giving back to the Central, Ohio community. Erb stated, ?Being a Columbus native, I’ve grown up watching OSU football. It is exciting to be involved in a project where I can support the community and OSU fans. We have many fans return to park in our lot for every game because the money goes to a wonderful cause.?

Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) February 6, 2008

It’s the start of a new season and you can almost hear fan sentiment revving along with the engines. Just over one year since Sports Media Challenge (SMC) launched its first Sports Blog Index?, SMC announced the addition of its NASCAR Sports Blog Index to guide fans to some of the most influential racing-focused venues on the web. The Index is intended to fuel interest and engagement of the sport’s most avid as well as newest followers. The Index points fans to blogs where they can reap perspective and share their own insights on their favorite sport, teams, and sponsors. Recent posts range from car technology and how good the new Toyotas are to Kyle Busch’s ideal woman. Even in the off season, NASCAR’s famed sense of community is alive and well as demonstrated by a single blog post generating as many as 200 comments.

“NASCAR blogs are among the most informed and intelligent across all sports. Bloggers who focus their efforts on team sports generally have an inside track, yet they limit analysis to their favorite competitors. However, the best NASCAR blogs illuminate their favorites and also showcase a particularly well-honed general knowledge and analysis of the sport,” says Kathleen Hessert President of Charlotte, NC based Sports Media Challenge.

With the help of its proprietary Buzz Manager? software, Sports Media Challenge analysts monitor millions of sports, entertainment and lifestyle blogs and other social media daily. SMC now publishes a Sports Blog Index for NASCAR, the NFL, NHL, Baseball, College Football, and more.

“From the brand perspective we’re looking for the blogs that have the most influence to help organizations understand their customers better than ever. By intensely and consistently listening to online word-of-mouth, properties and sponsors can better understand and harness invaluable insight,” according to Hessert.

Fans Drive Discussion on 50th Anniversary:

This year, NASCAR will be celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Daytona 500, and today’s fans want to showcase their knowledge like never before. In addition to mainstream media coverage of NASCAR events, bloggers are covering NASCAR on a daily and sometimes hourly basis. Blogs are gaining legitimacy in the eyes of the public and are now posting unique, influential content to which fans can relate. A lack of editorial restriction, original content, and ability to comment directly on a post make blogs particularly attractive to fans.

Sports Media Challenge’s Sports Blog Index is the first ever standard measurement tool to identify the most influential sports and entertainment blogs and is derived from an in-depth analysis of all blogs related to the industry. A blog is rated on three main criteria: influence, fan engagement and quality. These factors are measured through a mixture of qualitative and quantitative data, which allows the Sports Blog Index to more accurately rate the true “worth” of a given blog. Influence, which is a measure of the impact a blog has on fan opinion and perceptions, is a key factor in determining a blog’s ranking. Fan engagement is based on quantitative data such as page visits, number of posts, etc. The quality of a given blog’s content is determined by the SMC team, who analyze the humor, sentiment and sarcasm of a blog more effectively than a computer. The inclusion of both quantitative and qualitative data in the rating is what makes the Sports Blog Index unique.

Based on the rating of each blog in the areas of influence, fan engagement and quality, the top ten NASCAR sports blogs are:

1. The Daly Planet (http://dalyplanet.blogspot.com)

2. From the Marbles (http://sports.yahoo.com/nascar/blog/nascar_marbles)

3. One Bad Wheel (http://www.onebadwheel.com/blog/)

4. Bench Racing with Steve and Charlie (http://benchracing.typepad.com/)

5. Restrictor Plate This (http://www.restrictorplatethis.com/)

6. Answer This?

7. NASCAR Ranting and Raving

8. Kathy’s Pit Stop

9. Life in the Turn Lane

10. Full Throttle

About Buzz Manager

Buzz Manager, a staple service of SMC, is the proprietary search engine focusing explicitly on the sports, entertainment and lifestyle markets. It mines, monitors and analyzes online content and helps identify the most influential blogs in the Sports Blog Index. Buzz Manager tracks and measures the online word-of-mouth and mainstream media exposure of brands within the sports market. A combination of technology and human analysis is used to determine a brand’s awareness and perception. The Sports Blog Index uses the Buzz Manager tracking software to determine ratings for tens of thousands of sports blogs being tracked. Beyond blogs, Buzz Manager also monitors trends on other forms of Fan-generated media, including message boards, Facebook and other social media.
