XFINITY Presents: The Ultimate Sports Social Media Job Contest

Good morning; Happy Monday! Remember the Qualcomm/Snapdragon phone giveaway? A user on AN was the winner of the California contest, so congratulations!

For those of you who are looking for an opportunity in Sports Social Media, XFINITY is running a contest looking for you. I actually can think of several people here who might be good candidates.

Have you ever wanted a shot at winning your dream job in sports social media? Here's your chance--XFINITY is launching a nationwide contest to find the next sports social media star to serve as the voice of XFINITY behind-the-scenes at the biggest sporting events nationwide in 2012.

The contest is called Xfinity Presents: The Ultimate Sports Social Media Job‚ and runs from January 13th through March 25th. The winner will receive a one-year salary, all the electronics for the ultimate sports pad, and will have the opportunity to share thoughts, insights, and content with fans nationwide via the @XFINITYSports Twitter handle on a daily basis. This is truly a dream job opportunity for anyone looking to make a name for themselves in the world of sports and social media.

Here's how it works:

From January 13 - February 6, you can log on to Facebook.com/XFINITY and submit a :30-2:00 video on the Ultimate Sports Social Media Job contest tab that shows why your sports knowledge, social media expertise, personality, and passion for Comcast products and services makes you the perfect candidate for the job.

The top video submissions will be featured on the Ultimate Sports Social Media Job contest tab located on Facebook.com/XFINITY for fans to vote on from February 9-19. The five entrants who tally the most votes will advance to the final round of the contest where they will cover one of five premier sports events the weekend of March 8-11. Following that weekend, a panel of judges will evaluate each performance and announce the winner of the contest by March 25th!

Head today to Facebook.com/XFINITY and click on the Ultimate Sports Social Media Job contest tab for all the details, as well as contest rules. Enter soon, as February 6th is the deadline for video submissions! Thanks to Athletics Nation partner XFINITY for bringing this opportunity to our readers.

Start working on your video, and head over to XFINITY's Facebook for all of the details. And please let us know if you applied!

Wow

The Rockies twitter feed says that we traded Moscoso and Outman for Seth Smith. WTF?

I can't help but laugh that this front page post preceded by twenty-four hours another post entitled

“Back To Its Roots: This Is AN” that did not allow comments.
