We Are Going To Keep It On the Lighter Side This Week. Design, creativity, the arts, and especially music. The majority of my business life has been in the experiential marketing space. You can call it what you want, such as the world of branded or presence marketing, but in essence my existence in the …

Inspiration.
Step Forward, Rise Up, Always Remember. I started this blog four years ago – a challenge for me to 1) create a website and 2) write a blog on top of mind things I think….without the inference of politics or religion. This is the 185th post which has a focus of inspiration and remembrance. Whether …
The Future of Sports Journalism?
We discover every day how the onslaught of Covid-19 has created the new “not normal”. Almost all business entities and professions have had to alter the way they provide goods and services. Last week a guest was nice enough to offer up his perspective on issues with the pandemic and college football. This week I …
Top Of Mind For Mid-August.
Another Labor Movement? Let Us Never Forget. Real Music. Transparency with VAR. Departing The City. A Day In The Park. I am a huge fan of college football. Saturday afternoon and night games, especially involving the SEC, ACC, and Big 10 schools, have for a long time been an important part of weekends between September …
Beirut – What Could Have Been.
It Is Not So Simple. The country of Lebanon and the city of Beirut. From many aspects the former and current Beirut has been an enigma, with it’s myriad of socio-economic and geopolitical strengths and weakness. Before their civil war that lasted almost fifteen years and in theory ended in 1989, Beirut had a thriving …

Going Sports.
The ABA. Monster Of A Man. Diminishing Returns. 162 & 9 Does Not Make Sense. The Great Peter Green. I have made an attempt to not focus on sports – websites are already saturated with sports information and blogs from many great journalists. With that said, I am going sports this week and my take …
I’ll Take A Go At It.
Virus Mitigation. I have discussed what I call the ‘virus fatigue syndrome’ from reading and learning information that is inconsistent from epidemiologists, virus czars, the World Health Organization and The Centers for Disease Control. It really irks me that in mid-July we are still not sure of the real cause of this coronavirus (Covid-19), the …
Ten To Ponder.
There Are Some Positives. 1. While America is struggling to provide consistent Covid-19 information, other countries have turned the corner with managing the virus. This is very positive and gives me hope that the U.S.A. can do the same. Sooner better than later. 2. Major League Soccer’s (MLS) restart tournament started last Wednesday and though …
I Just Don’t Know.
Let’s Get On With It. I don’t ‘love’ all animals. There is nothing about a armadillo that makes me smile. I can say the same for a bison – a massive creature that can weigh over 2,000 lbs. and stand 6′ tall. It can run (is that what a bison does?) at 40 mph and …
