A sports journalist's job has never been to cover the sport. It's to tell good stories, wherever and however they're uncovered.
That whole "protecting the brand" thing? Maybe that's your business, but it isn't mine.
Sharing things others want hidden is part of the job.
One of the biggest shifts in sports + social right now? Our job isn’t really to cover the sport.
Yes, coverage will always matter to a degree. But if you’re buried in play-by-play, media scrums, and basic blocking + tackling, you’re never getting to great.
Real growth comes from building connection with fans and beyond. That happens through emotion, entertainment, access and personality. Sounds simple. Almost no one does it consistently.
Why? Because it means getting comfortable with the uncomfortable. Saying no to things we’ve always done. Getting a different kind of buy-in from athletes and leadership. Protecting the brand, but still letting the work be fun.
Getting to great means we stop overthinking. We trust our gut. We get out of the sports echo chamber. We don't take ourselves too seriously. And we have a pulse on what stops people in their scroll.

Almost an entire American town lives in one building.
Whittier, Alaska, has roughly 270 residents. Most of them live in Begich Towers, a 14-storey former army block with the post office, police station, a shop, a clinic and a church inside it.

Rob Zombie’s former over 8k sq ft home in CT AKA the Origami House was just listed for $6,500,000.
Per the listing the home “draws inspiration from the art of folded geometry. Sculptural cube-like forms create dramatic ceiling heights, expansive walls of glass, and light-filled interiors that effortlessly blur the distinction between indoor and outdoor living. At the heart of the home is the spectacular Glass Great Room, inspired by I.M. Pei's iconic Louvre Pyramid.”
PS there is also a koi sanctuary.

McDonald's uses 3 different eggs. Only 1 of them is cracked in the restaurant.
The Egg McMuffin gets a Grade A egg cracked into a ring on the grill. The Big Breakfast scramble is poured from a carton of eggs and citric acid. The folded egg on the biscuits and McGriddles is eggs, nonfat milk, modified food starch, salt and citric acid. A supplier cooks it, folds it and flash freezes it. The store warms it on the grill.
Citric acid keeps a cooked egg from going gray on a hot hold, and the starch holds water in a patty that's been frozen and thawed so it doesn't weep on the biscuit. The milk adds volume and softens the bite.
McDonald’s purchases over 2 billion eggs in the US and Canada a year.

A deep cut in NJ, but elsewhere this would be remembered for generations.
When Jerry Healy first ran for Jersey City mayor in a 2004 special election, someone photographed him passed out on his front porch, naked and drunk.
That was the first of 3 mayoral elections Healy won
