It reminds a lot of what ESPN has with their MyESPN page. I'm curious to see if Boxxet will go the way ESPN went allowing users to have all of the favorite teams' content showcased on a single page. Being a small company, I believe Boxxet has the ability to offer a richer package, but it will be hard for them 1.) to get the users 2.) to get access to content that rivals ESPN's. With their millions of users and tons original content from videos to articles, it's going to be tough to compete. Either way, this site is now on my list of places to get my bay area sports content.

There is no doubt that there are a small percentage of users that can move mountains, but we felt it was wise for us in the long run to real focus on automation with machine learning on user actions. Only time will tell if we are doing the right thing and staying ahead of competition. Thank you for making the important point about user participation, Matt.
