Grow Go Long and get rewarded!
Introducing our new referral program.
Season Four of Go Long is fast approaching. You are the reason typing that sentence is even possible. Upon launching in November 2020, I had zero clue how many people wanted to carve out a half-hour of their day to sit down and go beyond the social-media chum to read, to learn about this game.
Corporations or advertisers could never own us. The ability to think and write freely is a freedom you all make possible.
Honestly, this has been the best career decision I’ve ever made. It’s not even close. I absolutely love the adrenaline rush each day to hunt down a story worth your time.
Cannot wait to share our plans for the 2023 season in a few weeks.
So, let’s give this a try. If you enjoy Go Long, you can now refer friends to our site and get rewarded. Thanks to our friends here at Substack, our platform, it’s easy:
How to participate
1. Share Go Long. When you use the referral link below, or the “Share” button on any post, you'll get credit for any new subscribers. Simply send the link in a text, email, or share it on social media with friends.
2. Earn benefits. When more friends use your referral link to subscribe (free or paid), you’ll receive special benefits.
Get a 1 month comp for 3 referrals
Get a 3 month comp for 5 referrals

Win a book. Over at the leaderboard, you can track your number of shares. At the end of each month, I’ll send a signed copy of my book, “The Blood and Guts: How Tight Ends Save Football,” to the No. 1 referrer. (You can read excerpts here, icymi.)

Thank You for spreading the word and building our Go Long community. I’ll keep brainstorming ways for us all to connect. We’ve got readers all over the world, from Hamburg, NY to San Diego to the UK and Switzerland. Grateful for you all. For those who enjoy reading within the Substack app, an NFL offseason thread is live. I’ll also be getting to Part II of our mailbag Monday AM — smart submissions by all.
