SPORTS PUBLICITY, MARKETING & BRAND BUILDING IN A NEW AGE: WITH JOE FAVORITO
Very few of us get a seat at the table of history, and few in our industry have been at the table…a diverse set of them of many shapes and sizes…than Dr. Harvey Schiller. When talking about someone who was in the room, at the table and in the meetings at the cusp of some …
They both returned to the playoffs…one NHL and one NBA…on the same night both with their own organic spin to presentation. The San Antonio Spurs pulled off the well orchestrated Fiesta Night, a rainbow of coordinated color for Victor Wembanyama’s first playoff home game, while the Buffalo Sabres drought ending win over the Boston Bruins …
In an attention starved, get it done yesterday world it’s sometimes nice to find consistency. Your friends you have known, the right slice of pizza or cup of coffee, a musical artist who knows just the right notes to play, Opening Day in Baseball etc. etc. Things can adjust, but the core thoughts…the core sounds, …
I have been a fan of Saturday Night Live since it’s inception. On Monday morning’s in high school my classmates would sit around the breakfast table in the cafeteria talking about the previous week’s episode.

From The Maritimes to California, a hockey holiday rite of charity has continued to expand to record numbers for those who see the value. Now it used to be only in Detroit could you throw an object on the ice during a hockey game …
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. This week was a little ditty about “Marty Supreme” and the misframed message of it’s what…it’s a story framed around table tennis, not …
A few weeks ago our class served as a good reminder for what communicative storytelling for a team was all about, and how it has evolved over the years.

We love garage sales don’t we? A chance to clear out the closets, or for those on the prowl, a chance to find some hidden gems. What’s ones trash is another’s treasure? The same is true for college athletic departments and teams of all sizes. Now this isn’t the same as a sale, say the US …
