SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
We take another look at some of our recent podcasts summarized by Noah Zaret. This weekend are two disruptors who also happened to have found blue ocean and are exploiting it on the engagement and content side, Dylan Sadiq, a first generation Rutgers grad who turned an engineering degree in to a literal artform, and …
As much as I learn from scrolling through online platforms I still feel like I retain more and learn more, from flipping through hard copies of books, magazines and newspapers again and again. Case in point was a Sunday New York Times piece, an oral history on the 25th anniversary of The Lion King on …
November 8 was STEM Awareness Day, and it served as a great reminder to how closely linked all areas of science, especially analytics, gambling the Metaverse, are tied to all levels of sport. Years ago when I was with the Knicks, star forward Kurt Thomas came to the community relations team with an idea; he had …
This past Sunday CBS had a great piece on “Ageism,” and the effects of words and actions that can be descriminatory, and disappointing to the generation over 50.

There is so much talk about streaming and the value of personalized channels can bring to hand casual and diehards a point of view as to how they want to engage in the live coverage of their favorite sporting events. We keep seeing the expansion of Twitch and its competitors into sports deals with teams, leagues …
Sometimes the simplest of ideas can go a long way, and they can happen with some of most complex businesses. Case in point, anyone watching an NFL game this weekend may have seen an additional decal, a country flag for example, on a player’s helmet, or a flag on the jacket of a coach like …
It is still there. And today it is more relevant than ever before…especially since World Suicide Prevention Day is this month. There it was on the side of a phone kiosk in midtown Manhattan two years ago, a large picture of Olympic swimming star Michael Phelps. Another ad for Speedo or Subway or Under Armour, as …
