For many years of my life, I was a walking database of knowledge about the Pittsburgh Pirates and their minor league system.
I covered Spring Training in Bradenton for years. I also covered games in each minor league city, while assembling a network of content creators to provide regular local reports from each city.
When I say that I “covered” those events, I mean that I was on location, with the same credentialed media access as every other reporter from every other outlet. I may have been the smallest outlet, but I was also the best content creator.
