SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
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 …
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.

I have always been a fan of second tier Bowl games. From the Garden State Bowl to the Astro Blue Bonnet Bowl, those games used to bring future stars into our homes, as well as schools we didn’t often see on football Saturdays. The relevance of many to the general public, and in some cases …
As we head into Thanksgiving week, some quick hits form the week behind while we still are missing our time in Italy. If you missed the recap, you can still find it here. Paul-Tyson Did What it was supposed to do: So much hand wringing over what the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight was or wasn’t. …
“Walk the balance between humility and confidence.” There were so many tidbits of wisdom that applied to every one of the over five hundred attendees at the Columbia University Sports Management Conference in Lerner Hall on October tenth, but that quote from Unrivaled Basketball Commissioner Micky Lawler in the opening panel on emerging sports helped …
