Yes, the game will cost $10, but a portion of that fee goes to the Gridiron Greats. These guys do great things, but mainly provide financial assistance and coordination of social… Continue

I saw your skiing videos on the site. They got me really excited about life. I am a serious skier and I get psyched any time the sport gets exposure. Did you get to work on the Paul Mitchell tour? Do you get to work with skiing much? Curious to know more.

College fans like Twitter more than Facebook for sports

If America’s major universities want to engage avid sports fans during live events, they should pay more attention to Twitter than Facebook, and they should forget about Foursquare altogether; At least what our data seem to be saying.
