If you are an aspiring soccer writer looking for a place to showcase your abilities and improve as a writer, SBI could be the place for you.
We are on the hunt for writers to cover everything from college soccer to NASL, MLS and international soccer and candidates with prior writing experience, such as college newspaper work or writing for independent websites.
SBI has helped launch and/or boost the writing careers of several SBI alumni currently working throughout the soccer writing industry.
If you are interested, email us at soccerbyives@gmail.com with your writing info.
I will write for you Ives, but here are my demands:
1. We change the website to reflect on Game of Thrones
2. Americans abroad will include Ben Lederman and his preteen adventures around Barcelona
3. We move offices to my parent’s basement so that I don’t have to drive anywhere
4. No sex in the champagne room
5. Any FIFA 15 copy has to have my High School Varsity soccer picture posted in front of Demspey’s
6. We prank call Donovan at least twice a week saying he’s been called up for our next game
7. Casual Fridays
Do you need anyone to do something similar to “Answer Man” from Yahoo Sports? It’s a Q&A but involves a wide range of topics like pop-culture, best dressed teammate, worst guy to room with on the road, etc. I could do that.
I think Ives is writing for sporting news now?

DOE.
The Wall Street Journal calls this move setting the tone.
Dave Chappelle calls this move When keeping it real, goes wrong.
Hope you get some more NASL writers, maybe some to cover fan culture developing in NPSL as well. Balance including non-conformist views has been getting better. Hope it continues.
I’m not a journalist but I did stay in a Holiday Inn one time. With that said, I’d like to see more diversity in stories from current/new SBI staff instead of the same troll-bait Donovan or JK stories that are nearly identical and posted 4 x a day.
DID YOU GET MY EMAIL I SENT YOU FOR MY JOB
I think you disqualified yourself by this comment… Why all caps bro?
Bahaha, welcome to SBI. That’s FRANK.
Count this as a vote for FRANK. I would read the crap out of his articles.
Spreadsheets anyone? Make it so, Ives.
I would too, but I’d have to wait until I was home so I could yell it the way it’s written.
Brilliant!!
I am voting for FRANK.
I would love to see what he cranks out on his Apple II with no small case letters.
I give him props for the fact that he gets that thing hooked up to the internet….I am in.
I’ve got a fever, and the only cure is more FRANK
100% support bringing FRANK aboard
I’d read FRANK’s stuff, no doubt.
WHAT IS EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT? FRANK ISN’T SHOUTING BY USING ALL CAPS? IT SOUNDS PERFECTLY NORMAL TO ME. I, TOO, VOTE FOR FRANK AS THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE S.B.I. REPORTER TEAM.
SOME PEOPLE CANNOT CONTROL THE VOLUME OF PITCH OF THEIR VOICE. IT’S KNOWN AS VOICE IMMODULATION SYNDROME. SADLY, IT ALSO AFFECTS THE KEYBOARDS OF V.I.S. SUFFERERS.

Here is a sample of my work, let me know how many hits I get in my job offer:
Pro/Rel is a dumb idea
Here’s my sample:
‘Merican major/minor league system is a dumb idea.
I right good. Higher me.

And with that, Soccer by Fast Eddie moves one step closer to reality. God be praised.
In a world where Wondo and Brad Davis make the World Cup team, there is no God.
ROTFLOL!!!
You my good sir, are a hero
