Salon and I are working on this with DoublePlayTV, a new venture by the company that created the sports stock market Pro Trade. The idea of DoublePlayTV is to create videos from the perspective of fans, as opposed to "a bunch of suits spouting off 'expert opinions' and telling you what to think."
Please use the comments thread to let us know what you think, and also what you'd like to see in future videos.
