Open Sports, started by the former founder of Sportsline.com Mike Levy, has launched into Public Beta.  We previously covered Open Sports when they first announced their funding.

At first look it looks to be a standard sports fan site and it looks like they got Sean Salisbury involved.  If we are choosing someone notable to partner with when launching our site we would probably would put Salisbury last on our list. 

This is what there About page says they are going to do:

• Read national and local stories from around the web
• Read and write insightful and entertaining blogs
• Stay up-to-date on teams and players
• Keep your friends and other sports fans informed by uploading videos, photos and stories
• Become friends with other registered members
• Participate in passionate discussions through commenting and forums
• Be entertained through engaging community programming experiences

It will be interesting to see if they can garner the amount of unique visitors a venture backed site needs to be successful.
