Talking with O-Dog and Thig

The internet has become an invaluable tool to every form of media. The goal of our website is to not only provide the information you see on the newscast, but to enhance it as well. Late last week, I was able to talk with free agent second baseman Orlando Hudson of Darlington and former CCU All-American Tyler Thigpen with the Kansas City Chiefs. In the world of TV news, we can usually grab a few seconds of an interview and put it on the show. Thanks to carolinalive.com, we can give people our entire interviews and a chance to get more than the typical thirty second soundbite.

We were able to go a little bit longer with both O-Dog and Thig during our newscast, yet we weren't able to share all of the content we gathered. Click on the links below to hear O-Dog talk about staying in Darlington during baseball's off-season and his work with autism through his CATCH Foundation. Thig gives his thoughts on the uncertainty in KC and what he thinks the Chiefs should do with the #3 pick.

One other side note - on our newscast we are able to show file video of both Thig and Orlando, but in the world of internet video - we are not allowed to show any NFL, MLB or any other major sport video.
