SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
We love listening and learning from those just starting the journey, and this summer one of our interns, James Gumina, a student at Yale who has launched the school’s sports business club, has volunteered to give us his thoughts on what he is watching, following and engaging with. Take it away James. As a young …
We love to say…because its true, lol…that personal and professional growth is tied to building relationships, curious learning and sometimes just showing up. Here are three recent podcasts that are examples of all three. If you listen, boy will you learn a great deal from our guests. Great Scott. The first one is our conversation …
A few weeks ago Sports Business Journal did a story where reporter David Broughton made a trip to Indianapolis for a weekend filled with hoops, NBA and WNBA, racing and lots of other things along the way. The type of trips I love. Why sit in a hotel room or hang at the same old …

Even at big events on the grandest of stages, little things matter. They matter also on small stages thrust into the spotlight as well. Such was the case in four fun stops last week in and around the Big Apple. First was a night at The Paley Center for what was essentially a coming out …
It’s been a week since we were roaming the halls of The Hynes Convention Center, where we again came away with more from the MIT Sloan Sports Business Conference than what we gave. Some key takeaways from the rooms and the halls not just from the weekend, but for what to watch going forward. You …
We love talking entrepreneurship and disruption on our podcasts and here are three recent ones that fit the bill. Have you ever looked at Super 70’s Sports on X? Learn all about how it came to be and what’s next. How is Madden changing the NFL teams engage? We have that. Then a slightly longer …
This past week I was talking to a colleague, and he said something to me which both surfside and delighted me. “Did you see that Kenny Klein has been sitting next to the St. John’s bench? I thought he was retired, what a great thing they brought him in to help.” Most probably won’t know …
