It also has a traveling show like &amp;quot;College Game Day&amp;quot; and a blog aggregator / vertical ad network which will assist and drive traffic to your blog and earn you more money .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Talk trash against rival fans / bloggers and win prizes and also drive traffic back to your blog. Top fans and bloggers compete in FanBowls / Featured debates and can win the use of the Ultimate Tailgate Machine (UTM) a 41-foot tricked out bus to take to a game to tailgate. On the UTM is a reality series like ESPN College Game Day, but instead of professional analyst broadcasting your blog will broadcast live from the game with the FanVsFan crew. Other Contestants/bloggers/fans who don&amp;#39;t win the UTM can win other prizes such as memorabilia from Steiner Sports ( www.steinersports.com ).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See the press release here http://www.marketwatch.com/story/versus-technology-llc-announces-the-launch-of-fan-vs-fan-2009-09-09&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The FanVsFan project is represented by a top Hollywood talent agency - William Morris Endeavor http://wma.com (see below) .

The site, which will launch to everyone very soon, is an opportunity for FanCasters/Bloggers to compete in on-line webcam sports debates. Talk trash against rival fans and bloggers and win prizes and drive traffic back to your blog. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The Fan vs Fan venture also inlcudes a sweet tricked out 41 foot bus called the ULTIMATE TAILGATING MACHINE, which will be in a tailgating lot at Giants Stadium the afternoon of the Friday, August 15th.  We are writing to you to invite you out to the tailgate, check out the bus, and have a party to learn more about Fan vs Fan and also mingle with other Jets bloggers.  The invite is also open to your friends and family as well!&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;If interested in coming out, please drop me a line to let me know your coming, and also I&amp;#39;d love to give you a guided tour of the Fan vs Fan site!  Let me know if you have 10-15 minutes soon where we can get together over the phone and I will show you what it&amp;#39;s all about!&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you!&lt;br /&gt;Matt Loede&lt;br /&gt;216-225-4598&lt;br /&gt;www.fanvsfan.com&lt;br /&gt;www.sportsgabnetwork.com&lt;br /&gt;www.nflgridirongab.com</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/1072901100735032899/comments/default/5235518501817913872'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/1072901100735032899/comments/default/5235518501817913872'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.nychalktalk.com/2009/08/justin-block-video.html?showComment=1249944508721#c5235518501817913872' title=''/><author><name>Matt Loede</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00530778438664705988</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.nychalktalk.com/2009/08/justin-block-video.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720717845853421960.post-1072901100735032899' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/posts/default/1072901100735032899' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720717845853421960.post-21274188030465084</id><published>2009-08-10T18:23:56.489-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-10T18:23:56.489-04:00</updated><title type='text'>No problem Justin welcome to the NYchalktalk team!...</title><content type='html'>No problem Justin welcome to the NYchalktalk team!</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/1072901100735032899/comments/default/21274188030465084'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/1072901100735032899/comments/default/21274188030465084'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.nychalktalk.com/2009/08/justin-block-video.html?showComment=1249943036489#c21274188030465084' title=''/><author><name>NY Chalk Talk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08083771153120977410</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='04285443675372604965'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.nychalktalk.com/2009/08/justin-block-video.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720717845853421960.post-1072901100735032899' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/posts/default/1072901100735032899' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720717845853421960.post-4590635761612664762</id><published>2009-08-10T18:20:27.094-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-10T18:20:27.094-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Thanks dweb.

It is truly amazing how talented some of these guys are and this is their chance to show off their stuff.  The skills have been a part of the All-Star weekend since 1990 and every year they have been a lot of fun for both the fans and the players.  No true hockey fan would want to see the skills contests go.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Also, you can't say that you want the guys to go all out in the all-star game.  It's insane to risk the players' health on a game that means nothing.  It's one thing if you want to get rid of the game all together, but I think that viewers enjoy the game for what it is: A chance for guys to show off their skills.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/141820459544956630/comments/default/2861710029828312813'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/141820459544956630/comments/default/2861710029828312813'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.nychalktalk.com/2009/01/pros-and-cons-of-nhl-all-star-weekend_25.html?showComment=1233001050665#c2861710029828312813' title=''/><author><name>HNLI Alex</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14387380513671332910</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.nychalktalk.com/2009/01/pros-and-cons-of-nhl-all-star-weekend_25.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720717845853421960.post-141820459544956630' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6720717845853421960/posts/default/141820459544956630' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6720717845853421960.post-7187569514383708171</id><published>2009-01-12T19:40:42.772-05:00</published><updated>2009-01-12T19:40:42.772-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Good Stuff.
