Jimmy Conrad is a Joy in KickTV Euro 2012 Coverage
06/18/12
I haven’t watched a single match of Euro 2012. But I have followed all of KickTV’s coverage of the tournament because it has been engaging, interesting, and funny. (And not just because it’s MLS Live commercial break filler.)
Jimmy Conrad does a great job bringing the fan experience and soccer culture of Eastern Europe to his audience back home. And the KickTV crew doesn’t shy away from the controversy either.
It’s the kind of coverage only a dedicated short-form video channel can provide, and I hope its success means we’ll see more of their crew traveling to Major League Soccer events throughout this year, and making Gold Cup 2013 the next long road trip on their docket.
Jimmy, we may have an opportunity for you to show off those moves next month…
