I run a website called thesportsbear.com - I'm looking for writers to reduce the load on myself.
If you have a quick wit and decent knowledge of sports, I'd love to put up your articles.
I can't guarantee any kind of pay. Maybe we could have an agreement based on the kind of traffic your articles receive.

Re: thesportsbear.com
Hello wolfpack,
What do you mean on your submission page when you say this:
"Also, you agree to give the rights to the article to us as the publisher."
Writers should keep their own rights to their own words, don't you think?
Are you worried about your site's stories (written by others) getting published elsewhere?

Re: thesportsbear.com
It might help you attract contributors if you posted a link to your site that folks cud click on too..
Like this: The Sportsbear.com
Just a suggestion..
;-)
Sadly I only write about sex and skanked out, slutty celebs so I couldn't contribute anything worthwhile to you. Well, not unless Lindsay Lohan got a pool cue shoved up her a$$ by Christina Uglyleery whilst they were arguing about the Super Bowl outside a sports shop. ;-)
Also the date and time script on your homepage don't render properly in either IE or Firefox, you have no <!DOCTYPE> declaration on your pages and no <Meta> tags. If you want to project a professional image and have search engines index and spider your site you might want to address those issues.
Best wishes and good luck!

They sports satire is the future.
I've always wanted someone to write an article about the Pope being an honorary Harlem Globetrotter. 'Tis true. The man in the pointy hat is a devil behind the arc.
If you don't believe me, google it.
And Nascar, particularly, has always seemed an easy sport to satirize.

I wrote one a year ago... here, I've updated it to make it this year's story. I've also actually sent it over to this sportsbear site as a submission:
Superbowl Will Be Decided By Really Special Teams
Patriots punt returner
Boston, Mass. Jan 29 ~ In a surprise move that almost guarantees victory in this years Superbowl, the New England Patriots have made a roster change for their entire special teams squad. The replacements are each award winning olympic atheletes and the edge they bring to the game is unprecedented. Each is a gold medal winner in the "Special Olympics."
The change has stunned the opposing Philadelphia Eagles players and management. We spoke with Philly head coach Andy Reid about the Eagles recent players switch. Reid told us, "We really don't know what to do, we could follow suit I suppose and hire a bunch of mentally and physically challenged players for our special teams unit but upper management has indicated this is not a feasible solution. My bosses want us to simply annihilate the mongoloid players but each of my players have made it abundantly clear that they will not touch these challenged players. They will not destroy the bodies or the dreams of these special people."
"We're hoping," continued Reid, "that these new Patriot special teams players will be short enough in the smarts department to drop kickoffs or fumble or run the wrong way with the ball, anything so long as we don't have to tackle them. If they get a handle on their jobs though, we could be in for a long day of them scoring everytime we kick the ball to them."
Special Olympics representitives are extremely pleased with New England's choice to include these special people on their special teams roster. "This wonderful move by the Patriots will serve to build confidence and pride in these specially challenged people." said Milton Bradley, media spokesperson for the US Special Olympics team.
The Patriots had already been 35-21 point favorites over the Eagles for this years Superbowl in Jacksonville, Florida. After the announcement by the New England team, the point spread went up to a 49-14 spread for the Pats. CBS Sports will be covering the television play by play action this year. The Superbowl will be played on Sunday, February 6th and this will certainly be one of the most controversial championship duels in the history of professional football.

Re: thesportsbear.com
i didn't put the article up, just because it made fun of retards. i thought it was a little too edgy for the website just starting out - i don't want to piss off a first-time viewer. maybe in a year or so i can get away with that.

You managed to resist the very tempting Terrell Owens retarded joke too. Good job! 
It wasn't received too well...

Here, allow me to atone for my sins...

Sheesh, try to do someone a favor and they throw it right back in my... er, um, what I meant to say was... I can understand your fear, I mean... it is a new web site and all... and hell, it's a recycled story anyway.

Gotta be a moral in there somewheres. ;-)
