Sports Analyst

Alright well seeing as I'm a little pressed for time on this blog cycle because I would love to go to bed early (even though we all know that won’t happen), I apologize in advance if this post seems a bit inadequate and lacks creativity.

But anyways, this time on my blog I will be discussing the possibility of being a sports analyst for a broadcasting station.  Now ideally I don’t want to be that guy that just has like 2 minutes of wrap up sports stories from the channel 2 news at 7 pm.  I think working for espn is pretty much the best I could think of doing, or maybe I could join Bob Costas for the Summer and Winter Olympics on NBC.  That would be chill too.  This is a career that I can honestly say I have not put much thought into thus far and wouldn’t put super high on the top of my list but it is still definitely something to consider.  I love sports.  They are truly my passion.  I’ve grown up playing them, watching them, learning them, and even hearing them on the radio.  They are a part of me that I will never let go of and for this reason I would love to be a sports analyst talking about the hub around the nation (or world).

Now to become a sports analyst, there are specific classes needed to be taken in college.  A sports analyst differs from a sports reporter in that they break down intricate details of the sport they cover to offer detailed insights and, in some cases, opinions. Sports analyst education tends to begin at the bachelor's degree level, with a major or minor in journalism or communications. Master's degree programs are also available in these fields.  So look to be taking classes of this sort if considering this position. Great schools to consider are Kaplan University, Ashford University, and University of Phoenix.

Again sorry this might have been a bad post, but thank you for reading it anyway.  Bye (:
