Mitch Malone Reached out to me last week. He spoke to our friend, Jeff Benjamin, RBR Senior Writer for the Eastern United States. Jeff put her in touch with me.
Mitch Mallon piqued my interest with the following text note: “As a former athlete, our sport has been a focus of mine for many years, but in the last 4 years I have been particularly focused on bringing Track & Field content (full matches, athlete documents, etc.) to the streaming market.”
Mitch has a studio. Stadium Media, and they are focused on providing athletics fans, or as I affectionately and respectfully call them, trailer fans, for a modest fee, iconic athletics meets, historic sports films and documentaries.
I’ve added a suggestion for a typical event from the stadium below. RunBlogRun: does not receive compensation for this position. I just thought it was a good idea and would love to see Mitch’s concept succeed.
i think It’s a brilliant idea, and it comes at a price Taco Bell Supreme burrito or an an iced Americano at Starbucks, it’s in most of our budgets.
