Check your politcal opinions at the door…or stay out… Twenty four years later still remains a very tough day for many. I have written about our experience that day at the USTA, and linked to the story that we played here, with both the positive and the negative. We lost 39 from Fordham and 26 from …
I get asked all the time how I manage…well…time, and I use this quite from William Penn that i have on hand. “Time is what we want the most and use the worst.” -William Penn It’s hard, especially without routine or with so many things flashing in and out of what is “important” in the …

It is what you would expect, aisle upon aisle of collectables big and small, with literally millions exchanging hands…or just a few dollars. Our summer intern Luke Silpe wrote about his experience here. …

The ESPN launch, NIL and college issues, FIFA World Cup planning, streaming wars, gambling suspensions, NBA Europe, Caitlin Clark and on and on.

A few weeks ago, following the layoffs at the NBA and ESPN, I wrote this piece on the underappreciated value of institutional knowledge and it seemed to have resonated with a great deal of people. Today is the 106th birthday of Sister Jean Delores Schmidt…a woman of tremendous faith, a curious learner for life, and a …
