On January 28th, I let you in on a casting call for a new show coming soon that will be hosted by Michael Irvin on SpikeTV. It will be a reality show with six wide-receivers and six defensivebacks battling out for a spot on the Dallas Cowboys Training Camp Roster. Casting has wrapped up, and a combine will begin shortly to select the twelve who will be on the show. A lot of buzz has picked up surrounding this future show and it seems like a former NBA player wants to copy the idea in a basketball setting.
Duane Causwell, former player with the Miami Heat and Sacramento Kings, is working on a basketball reality show titled, “America’s Top Baller.” Thirty amateur basketball players will be selected to compete for a prize that includes: $50k, a sneaker line (with what company?), and a contract with a sports agent. Hmmm. I’d rather win a spot on a roster, but I guess the $50k is nice compensation. Unlike Irvin’s show, “America’s Top Baller” has not yet been picked up by a network and there is no information available concerning casting that I was able to find.
