DEEPER DISCUSSIONS.
Totally Tigers
Recently, the Tigers game was streamed for free on YouTube. It was broadcast by Scott Braun (mid 30?s) and Carlos Pena (mid 40?s), who offered a more contemporary take on the game that included information about other teams as well as the two being featured.
They offered both positive and negative analyses of the Tigers and their opponent. But they also asked for fan input and questions via either text, Twitter or other forms of social media.
Those watching also had the ability to participate in conversational threads on YouTube with other fans during the game.
Towards the end of the game, the hosts asked fans to vote for the Player of the Game and provided the final results.
All of this in stark contrast to the Tigers? regular broadcasters who range in age from their late 50?s to late 60?s and regularly regale fans with stories about former Tiger teams from the last 50 years.
It is an insular format that doesn?t allow for fans to have any input, send in questions or the ability to vote.
The Bally team offers their own ?Pick the Stick? game but fan participation is entirely ignored.
Which format appeals to you the most? Which one would you prefer watching?
