More and more, I’ve found myself being a connoisseur of online advertising. This industry has yet to really settle into a groove or system of structure like print, radio, outdoor, and television. Below are some ad campaigns I came across that I was really impressed by. Let’s start with a very basic rich media display […]

US soccer has ebbed and flowed over the last 15 years. The 94 world cup was a huge step forward but 98 was a huge step back. 2002 was very encouraging, but 2006 was yet again another big buzz kill. Today the US National team had a tremendous opportunity to focus the attention of the […]

My blog is going to go under some construction shortly. This could be the last post before that process starts. If so, it’s a good way to go out. Came across this today on Bucknuts via Hot Clicks. This is seriously one of the funniest personalities I’ve ever seen on TV….and he’s a football coach. […]

Behold the glory of minor league baseball player Josh Womack. No commentary needed, just the awesomness of Youtube in all its glory.

Although I’ve been beaten to the punch and already posted an interview with Kyle on the site yesterday, it wouldn’t be right of me to not writeup the great experience I had at Blogs With Balls over the weekend. When I first heard about the conference in mid March, I envisioned this being a great […]

I am going to write up the wonderful experience I had at Blogs With Balls at some point tomorrow. I can tell you it was a tremendous event filled with more highlights then the end of the year Baseball Tonight Web Gem Award Show. At the heart of everything that was awesome at the event […]

I have got to meet a lot of various people since becoming CEO of Bloguin. Even though its hard to work or partner with everyone I talk to, its still cool to meet technology and entrepreneurial minded people. One person that I’ve been really impressed by is Henry Lowenfels, owner of MayFly films who runs […]

Talk about a grenade with the pin pulled out. Lane Kiffin has been nothing short of a train wreck at Tennessee thus far. True, he has yet to even prove his coaching abilities out on the field, but like clock work every 30 days Kiffin makes an ass out of himself and the Volunteer program […]

Some of you have seen this, others have not. It’s borderline NSFW, meaning if your work is super lame you may want to put on some headphones as Barkley decides he to push the envelope. I love how this comes in the same year in which Barkley got a really shady DUI. Really love Reggie […]

Super busy, but I like to throw up content at least every other day. It’s not going to happen today, but thought I would post this awesome video below from Playing for Change. I’ve seen this before, but it was a blog by my friend Andrew Greenstein, CEO of Bojam, who jogged my memory of […]

The NCAA Baseball tournament which culminates in the College World Series has over the years provided a lot of great under the radar stories. With a very odd elimination structure as well aggressive scheduling, very often college baseball provides for some of the most dynamic sports storylines although they can be overshadowed by the culmination […]

Leading up to the 1992 Olympic games, Reebok pumped millions of dollars into an advertising campaign many of us will still remember. Dan vs. Dave, featured 2 Decathletes who were viewed as the two favorites to win the gold medal. Why they chose Decathletes blows my mind, but at least they avoided Harding vs Kerrigan. […]

I probably love this commercial more then anyone else. If you work in tech, things that get you and your colleagues excited are typically things that any normal non tech dork would not give 2 cents about. Intel, in the uber nerdy semiconductor space, embraces the lack of awareness of their excellence as a company […]
