Thanks for the love. Nash is one of my fav’s, on and off the court, and I’m sure he will do some really cool things when he retires.

I don’t know if he films with a flip cam. It may be a webcam or another type of video camera. My point was more that it is definitely low-budget, and emits a very personal vibe.

I may write an article about AI, although I already wrote about him (and the Sixers) a while back. Not sure I like the ‘network’ sites. May have to write an article about that!

Jackson,

Thanks for the recommendation. May write about Dwight Howard in the future. Not this week, though.

first of all Sam, props for giving my Canadian role model his props – I’m actually torn because as much as I love his game, I also can’t wait to see what he will do when he’s done, playing.

Secondly, how do you know he films with a flip cam?

and to answer your question, you should grade Allen Iverson next.

I’m real curious to see what you think of those ‘network’ sites (the .pro affiliation). I am personally not a fan.

Appreciate your support. I’m glad you enjoyed the article.

I agree, I would love to see more athletes get involved in the emerging platforms. It will happen, sooner than later, believe me!

Another great article!

I gotta be honest with you, I wasn’t paying too much attention to Steve Nash before this article, I knew he was on Twitter but I’d never seen any of his video content.

I can see where Brad is coming from in that some athletes do post content far more regularly. However, I have agree with you on grading the content by substance rather than quantity. Personally I’d rather see engaging content posted every couple of days than mediocre content being posted just for the sake of posting it.

I’d also like to see athletes starting to utilise more social media tools like Tumblr, DailyBooth and Flickr rather than keeping with the crowd and only really using Facebook and Twitter. I know Facebook and Twitter is where the largest audience is at the moment but I’m sure if stars stared use these other tools the fans would follow.

Anyway there’s my thoughts, I’m looking forward to the next report card!

Thanks for your response. You may be right, an A+ may have been a little generous, but keep in mind I grade content based on substance, not on how consistently it’s being created (which is why I created the ‘consistency’ section). Also, I don’t think that someone needs to be creating a variety of content (e.g. literary, audio, photographic) if he or she is better or more comfortable with a certain medium. If Nash is creating great video content, I personally don’t care if ever he writes a post or records an audio clip.

That being said, I see your points. Thanks again for your comment!

Yes — the man does have a great sense of humor in his very entertaining vids, but his virtual life on a day-to-day basis doesn’t have much substance to it. Sure, he may be on Twitter on “the reg,” but we all know Twitter isn’t the most intimate of social media platforms to use.

For him to get an A+ on content, I’d have to see him publishing content on a daily basis, with a nice mixture of literary, video, audio, photographic, interactive and promotional content each and every week.

That’s just my opinion! Nice article, Sam!
