Fans are usually fans of multiple sports related to their city and consume content in a horizontal fashion across different sports. Web 2.0, discovering clips, using Digg recs, and thousands of sports related blogs and news sites is the model they should also embrace..</p> <p>Also, sports are unique in their LIVE element, its one big real time social network with mass passion. Stay tuned for interesting things to come here :-)</p> Not sure walled garden is a smart model..

I think it is only a matter of time before technology will be available for full HD live action over an IP network. But holding exclusive rights over this feed will be critical - I also think this is why the NFL launched a network, recognizing that it may be the best way for them to control their live action content across multiple platforms.</p> I actually think Live Action Sports will be extremely important to broadcasters and cable companies.

It will be interesting to see how the live sports and breaking news segements shake out. Could the net support a live feed of the superbowl? Or the World Cup?

Highlights, game recaps and “year in review” type sports programming will flourish over the next year.
