This market seems wide open and the one who can really relate a site that’s valuable to athletes will be the big winner…

I would love to hear anyone’s feedback on our site http://www.teampages.com. Our focus is a little bit different than WePlay’s in that we’re focused on making team management and communication easy by providing teams with websites that they can easily create in less than 4 minutes, and use to send schedule updates, news, and reminders to all their members. We’re always looking for ways to improve our site and make it more useful for coaches, parents, and athletes.

I am not sure that having the athletes fake profiles there are all that valuable. Most of the kids who see them quickly see that they are not going to be interacting with jeter or Lebron. Having those athletes $$$ is nice though.

Guess I just don’t get it. Neither do my kids who play pop warner. Myspace+sports layouts+ Lebron James. Very impressive raise though. Way to go.

Soon VC’s will have “Web 2.0″ names like Zoomr Capital

Brett doesn’t like it cause he’s been stuck with a laptop and lava lamp his entire life:)
