Just a brief update to try to explain what some commenters dont seem to understand. 1. the only thing that cable companies, and satellite for that matter have to sell is bandwidth and the applications they can run on that bandwith. More bandwidth means more digital everything. 2. For Basic Cable subscribers that get say,…
Youtube has been messing with the magic quite a bit lately. Wide screen, high quality and the drive me crazy pre rolls to subscribe among many others. (BTW, watching the subscribe button scurrying around the screen was fun the first 300 times). But lets talk Youtube business. Thats the source of their desperation. From all…
Lots of articles in the past few days wondering what the banks are going to do with the bailout money. Its of course a legitimate question. The response of the banks has been that the cash goes into a pool of capital and you cant segregate the new capital from the bailout capital. Fair point….
Pro sports, every single league, from the NFL to NBA to MLB to MLS to NHL need newspapers. This need exists because of what internet sports reporting has become, and how LOCAL team fans have evolved to use the net. There is no shortage of coverage of professional sports on the webs. There is a…

Probably one of the most annoying things I have to deal with in business is that people never question the status quo. It doesn’t matter what business it is. I doesn’t even matter if its something that applies to how I do things, that I have become set in my ways on. It is rare…
We have developed and enhanced a player and lineup evaluation system. We have been working on this for the last 8 years. Its far from perfect, and its greatest value is that over a period of years we have been able to identify trends to help us identify up and coming, starring and declining players….

The response has obviously been overwhelming. Its taken a lot of time, but I have gone through every post. More than 1,400 of them.
