A Jody Kingsbury sighting… UPDATED
Posted by sagsy on February 24, 2008
Got a nice note updating all of us on the activities of Jody Kingsbury, who was a media relations intern with the Lynx last summer.
Jody has been using his winter well, putting together video highlight packages for the varsity teams at McMaster University down in Hamilton.
Speaking as someone whose CIS fetish has been spun off into a second blog, Jody’s highlight packages perfectly capture the atmosphere of a university game in Canada. It’s professional work but it doesn’t look so slick that you forget you’re watching true student-athletes.
No doubt a lot of collegiate and professional sports organizations could stand to have Mr. Kingsbury’s expertise and enthusiasm.

*** UPDATE ***
Thanks to uber-blogger, Neate Sager, who beat me to the ball quite handily on this. Hat tip to RD for alerting us to Mr. Kingsbury’s work. I’m hopeful that the Rapids will be able to harness the power of the ‘net and a Windows/Apple computer and produce something similar for their website. Which isn’t to say this stuff is easy, and Neate nailed it: Jody’s work looks pro.

Jody, stylin’ during a June 19 rain delay.
