The Huddle... In Print?

Recommended Posts

After Zod made the thread this morning about having Huddlers contribute to the site, a lot of you revealed you have writing experience. Well, imagine this... Zod's photo skills and connections, writing from Huddlers, my design skills, and everything that IS The Huddle all rolled into a 50 page Monthly magazine!!!

 

Me and Mrs. M3OW have been brainstorming all day, and I even threw together a sample cover and table of contents. Take a look...

Here is a break down of some of the sections we came up with:

 

Meet The Huddle - Would have a introduction to a Huddler/Fan, a section for opinions, and a Q&A.

 

Kitten of the Month - A two page spread with a new Kitten each month. Pictures, profile, and more.

 

Under the Helmet - This is where Zod will have to pull some strings and try to get a player interview. 

 

On The Field - This is the section where we would have detailed analysis about the team (X's & O's) and whatnot.

 

The Growl - Panthers news for the month, including roster changes, scores, ect.

 

The Buzz - Section for all things Charlotte Hornets

 

Tailgate Tails - Section for recipes, tips and tricks, stories, and maybe even beer reviews for tailgating.

 

The Lounge - Pretty much a section for the off-topic topics. Anything could got here.

 

Get Your Paws On - A section for cool stuff, their reviews, where to buy them, and so forth.

 

 

It would take some time, effort, and dedication for the people involved. But this could take off. I'm working for a magazine in NC right now and know the ins-and-outs of what it takes to get this off the ground and get it going. And (If memory serves me well) we even have a few salesmen in the Huddle if we ever got to the point we could sale advertisements. 

 

Just a thought. What do you guys think?

i don't think i've ever bought a magazine in my life, but if this had exclusive content and was integrated with its origin as an online forum (crowdsourcing for material through the boards and even referencing them when applicable) i would pay money for a subscription.

That is exactly what I believe it COULD be. It's also a plus that SOME of the people here have a better view on the team than the national media. So, it would be nice to have a "realistic" source if we can keep the homerism down to a containable level.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
