Consider Writing For The Sixer Sense

The Sixer Sense Can Give You An Opportunity Of A Lifetime
Legacy. Challenge. Competition.
If you are not on the court playing in the NBA championship with the ball in your hands, score tied, and laying it up for the winning score, you are not alone. But if you have a passion for the game of basketball, then perhaps this message is for you. You see, I like to read about the Philadelphia 76ers, and I think you may have what it takes.
Communication is like any muscle or skill. It needs practice. The more you do it, the better at it you become. That’s how it works. I was fortunate, in that my life began at the infancy of the electronic age. Television was still new, and mistrusted. Life was simpler then, we all gathered at the table for a family meal, we communicated long distance by becoming “pen pals” with citizens of other nations, we talked on a rotary dial phone for short intervals, because homes only had one phone, and we learned how to practice communication.
Now things have changed. We distill complete thoughts into 140 character tweets, and find ourselves locked into social media to form that bond with one another, to find people we have common experiences and beliefs with. But we keep it short, and simple. What about the not so simple, or the not so short? What if you had the chance to explain why this NBA draft of 2016 is so very important for the Philadelphia 76ers? Do you have the stuff to share that belief? What about the impact of basketball in your life? Perhaps a memorable night where Allen Iverson signed an autograph just for you. Could you, would you be able to?
Some thing are worth investing time into. Whether you are retired and have the wisdom of many years experience, or filled with youthful passion in your teens, you have something to say. Why not say it? Here at the Sixer Sense, we all begin as fans who had something to say. Incredibly, we discovered we aren’t alone. Fans of each team, of each sport, have something meaningful and important to say. We not only give you the chance, we encourage you to do so. So what’s in it for you?
Every top runway model had to have his or her picture taken first. Every sports writer starts who signs up at the national level begins with one story. Then another. You could handwrite those articles, photocopy it, and snail mail it to your friends, relatives, and even your favorite sports bar, but that takes up a lot of time for someone who wants to get into the business of sports writing, doesn’t it?

But even if your career goal is anything but the sports desk of a national sports network, writing gives you practice in one of the most human of abilities – communication. Master that, and you master life. Not everyone has the knack to write. It’s not a participation award. It’s a skill that requires practice to attain, and then more practice to maintain. And so, we invite you to join us at the cusp of something very special. Join us at this historic point in time. Could the Sixers get four first round draft picks? Will they get two of the top five picks? Could they get the first and fourth pick of this NBA draft?
If they do, you could be the one who captures the moment for history. Click on this link and see if you have what it takes. Take the chance, bet on yourself. You may surprise yourself and discover you have a talent you didn’t know about. You already have an eager audience. I’m eager to read what you think.
