Magazines Now on Newsstands


Goose Bumps...
Wow what an exciting rush of excitement...did i mention exciting? The 2007 Florida Football magazine has hit newsstands throughout the state. Being part of the magazine has brought on feelings that i have never felt before! Working on the magazine for the last 9 months has paid off ten fold. We had envisioned a magazine with nearly 1ooo prep kids pictured, the top pro football stories, the rankings of the top players...but never could we take what we saw on our computer screen and imagine in our minds the freaking awesomeness of the final product.

The magazine is so powerful that it still puts goose bumps across my body!



A look at the past--Just to think 4 months ago I was at Robinson High School in Tampa, FL to introduce Corey and myself to coach Mike Depue and his players. We took a couple of Head Shots...this one kid "Patrick Nevers Jr" was so excited that Christmas Day looks dull...Corey and I jawwed all the way back to the office about how funny it was but at the same time we were awed at how his excitement motivated him as a football player.

No lie...the next day i open the mail to find a pre-order for our magazine from none other than Patrick Nevers Jr from Robinson High School.

Back to the present--On Saturday I was at Barnes and Nobles looking for a Birthday present for the wife. I drifted towards the magazine newsstands and to my surprise there sat Florida Football Magazine (2 days before scheduled) the same excitement that hit Patrick Nevers Jr months ago rushed through me. I quickly flipped through the top magazine (which looked like it had been through a war from being flipped through all day) as came across the picture of Patrick Nevers Jr a smile came to my face.

I put the magazine back down on the top of the pile and my eyes drifted to the left where a fantasy football magazine with LaDainian Tomlinson and then the eyes shifted to the right only to see the picture of Peyton Manning.

Goose Bumps...I couldn't help but to break out in Goose Bumps...to think Patrick Nevers Jr is sitting on hundreds of newsstands in 50,000 magazines with his picture next to LaDainian and Peyton!!
