Sports Sponsorship Symposium

Last week I attended the Relay Sports Sponsorship Symposium at the New York Marriott Marquis Hotel. I was hoping to interact with brand marketers and get a peak inside their minds for a bit.

Crack Breaker for the CrackBerry

What’s The Deal With Ahmadinejad?

I follow current events and world news mostly through skimming through Time, Business Week and the Sunday edition of the New York Times. If I miss something that I feel is important I usually get the scoop from my dad. He watches the nightly news programs on Fox, MSN and CNN. I […]

Ann Arbor Is Still A Whore!

Ann Arbor Is A Whore!

I’m going to Ann Arbor this weekend to catch a Michigan Football game. I’ve gone back for a game each year since I graduated. Returning to my alma mater is usually one of the highlights of the Fall. Unfortunately, after last Saturday’s debacle at the Big House I’m not as pumped up […]
