Provided we get ample good efforts, we will select up to 60 articles for posting.
Note: If you submitted an article in the past to Footballguys.com and it was published on our website, feel free to tweak to make current and resubmit. If selected you will be eligible for the prizes as outlined.
Here is how it will work:
You write an article between now and Saturday, July 15th.
You send the article to Clayton Gray (gray@footballguys.com) and also provide the following information:
- Name
- E-mail address - where we can ask you questions (if needed) about the article
- Please put "Freelance Article" in the subject header of the email
Articles should be sent as Microsoft Word documents or as text (.rtf, .txt). If tables are to be included, attach an Excel file. Do not send HTML files.
Payment will be $30 for the first article selected from each writer. If multiple articles from a writer are selected, you will be paid $35 for each additional article, but given just 1 entry into a FFTOC league (to compete for $250).
Note: Just because an article was sent in does not ensure that it will be used by Footballguys.com. We are looking for quality material with good takes backed up by strong statistical or real life experience.
By sending an article to Footballguys.com, you are agreeing to publish the content only at Footballguys.com. We are not interested in posting material that can be found at any other website or publication.
Material placed on the site becomes the property of Footballguys.com and can be used at their discretion for future publications.
If you are interested, start writing. We will be accepting freelance material from now until Saturday, July 15th.
We will publish on the message boards the full list of people selected on Monday, July 17th.
