					<description>You know this is so true "Another potential issue is what if a Sports Pro(like David Beckham) joins T&#38;T. As expected there will be fan site for him already out there. Is there a way to connect both or add some value due to his presence on the site? Also the difference between fansites and clubs seems ambiguous %u2019cause both of them have similar URL(http://www.tiredandtested.com/fansite/xxxxx). It will be better to different URL segment(/club/ or /fansite/) so that it can be monetized upon later. Also support for external video from youtube and Google video will be great add-on. It will be great if RSS feeds are provided for blogs, events, photos, forums, news and related thingy".

How can you bring together these different enthusiasts.  With regards to the youtube site with rss I found this site the other day on an aol blog www.isportif.com.  They seem to exactly that.  I am hoping they add some more features, but it looks pretty promising. So far.</description>
