Sports Talk Matt O
will cover your national sports topics along with a main focus on the Kansas
City sports scene. This blog plans to bring readers many different and exciting
views on sports. I, Matt O'Dell, grew up in the small farm town of Orrick, Missouri
just a half hour outside of Kansas City. Coming up as a kid I quickly became a
sports fan watching the Royals and Chiefs compete. I have learned the hard way
about my teams losing in professional sports. I have also seen those magical
seasons that bring a city together.
After enjoying the small town life of Missouri
I moved to Orlando, Florida to earn my degree in Sports Marketing & Media
at Full Sail University. I have always had a knack for talking sports to pretty
much anyone interested, so I figured I had a talent and a passion I shouldn’t
put to waste. What I have learned about covering sports is you really have to
listen and create a feel for the game. Listen because when a veteran player or
veteran announcer covers a topic, they have the knowledge of the game to know
how it usually plays out. Your personal feel of the game is how you can look at
a player like LeBron James or Robert Griffin III and relate to how good that
player really is at his sport. I say those two things because when covering
sports you should be open to all kinds of different opinions and ideas. My
goals are to have fun and extend your sports knowledge while covering your
Chiefs, Royals, Tigers, Jayhawks, and Wildcats. That’s that and Sports Talk
Matt O says go KC.
