There are so many ways to keep up with sports in this day in age—from watching them on every high-definition channel to streaming them on computers or keeping up with them on cell phone apps. With so many imitations of the same sports stream, fans need something other than a list of scores to keep them entertained in the sports world. Stanislaus alumnus, Ken Mashinchi has done just that.
A year after graduating as the valedictorian, Mashinchi is attending the University of Southern California and studying at the Annenberg Graduate School of Journalism. As part of his Sports and Society class at USC, Ken is required to produce a sports blog posting once a week. His blog is called “Kickin’ it with Ken.”
“I try and find topics that aren’t completely killed in the media but are still well-known and time-relevant,” said Ken Mashinchi.
The blog features articles revolving around Ken’s perspective or opinion on current issues. This includes football-related injuries, problems with the NFL, retiring legends or my favorite, The Sad Life of a Sports Fan.
