SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
I am a big believer in reframing older messages. You twist a phrase, move a comma, look at something from a different angle and suddenly there is a new message. I have talked about this numerous times with my college colleagues and have written about the difference between investing and donating, and how that little …
Our time at Super Bowl on Media Row was a gift that keeps on giving for curious learners. Latest examples are below. Three quick listens with three leaders in the media space, all from different angles, all overseeing three distinct, disruptive and growing platforms…The Ringer, Front Office Sport and Action Network.

A few weeks ago I decided to organize literally hundreds of credentials from over the years, all of which were hanging in my closet on almost broken hangars. So I took them all off the lanyards and got them into one small bins as a first step. Now the question was what the heck to …
Before heading off this weekend I got to unpack…literally…from all the learnings at Super Bowl in New Orleans.

You walk through the massive NFL Experience in New Orleans and you see all the requisite fun activations and brands partnerships…and then as you head towards the NFL Store, everything ends in a gift shop right, there you have Pickleball…and cornhole. What a jump cornhole has made from tailgating to the main stage, and the …

Sunday morning, I went to an early mass at our parish, St. John the Baptist in Hillsdale, NJ, and I am always interested and intrigued to what our pastor, Monsignor Peter Smutelovic, has in store for his homily.
