The information gleaned from newsletters, if you can curate them correctly, is invaluable. One of my favorites is Offball, which brings me info on sports like pop culture I don’t find elsewhere.

Our business doesn’t go an hour it seems without some “big news” off the field. The ESPN launch, NIL and college issues, FIFA World Cup planning, streaming wars, gambling suspensions, NBA Europe, Caitlin Clark and on and on. If Billy Joel wanted to write a sports version of “We Didn’t Start The Fire,” it wouldn’t …
We love giving our interns the ability to be out and about listening and learning. Great observations here from Elon’s Luke Silpe, who got to spend a few days in the Javits Center craziness.
