SAN DIEGO and PHILADELPHIA -- Aug. 11, 2008 -- A consortium of seasoned National Football League (NFL) insiders today announced the launch of The National Football Post, the exclusive online source for the most incisive and in-depth analysis and opinion on professional football available today. Unique among current football Web sites for its access and insight into the innermost workings of the NFL, The National Football Post features an executive team including former NFL executives, top player representatives and a former player. The site will also become a forum for renowned guest commentators in sports and entertainment to weigh in with their views on the sport. The site is now live at www.NationalFootballPost.com.

"There is a void for content originating from experienced NFL professionals that serious football fans can consume," said Andrew Brandt, president of The National Football Post. "The National Football Post will fill that void by delivering analysis and commentary on the latest news with insights that were previously unavailable. Our content is unique because it comes from the 'been-there' viewpoint of writers who have firsthand industry experience, understanding and contacts."

The National Football Post features:
* Blogs by NFL insiders
