SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
Another look at the summer from our intern James Gumina. As a young person in an age of limitless information, there are always a lot of things on my mind, mostly sports-related, and often focused on what’s happening off the field. From marketing campaigns to broadcasts to business strategy, it’s a lot to process. So, …

One of the greatest skills in sports is the ability to hit the curveball in the sport of baseball. Those in the know say it can transform average players to All-Stars for those few who can master it even for a short time. I was thinking about the challenges of the curves, opr the things …
We have always thought that sports was the great unifier. Nelson Mandela famously said, “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
