discovery channel - tom danielson

The Discovery Channel bought my Tour of California photo of Discovery rider Tom Danielson for use in their Tourspel online game. From what I understand, it’s like fantasy football, but for the Tour de France. The photo will run on the Discovery Channel homepage, game page, banner ads, and newspaper ads in Europe.

Notice the placement, above those fleabag Meerkats.

    Our Matt!

    Please come out of the woodwork, and give him a hand. Speaking from personal experience, I’m sure he can use the love. Just JimC and Sac here in the Comments section (and almost nobody else) gets really depressing every little once in a while.

    Also, please practice saying this before a mirror: “Matt Cohen? I used to know him back when he was just starting out. Had a nice little blog. And now look at him!”

    That’s really cool!

    Congrats!

    Now, if you can go find the Mythbusters and take photos of them, that would be great, my kids are fans of that show :-)
