Straight from Tiger's Mouth
I am probably one of Tiger's last supporters. A few months ago, if you asked me my stance on the whole fiasco, I would have said I hope he never played golf again. As such an international figure, lines on and off the course blur. You can't be the most amazing athlete in your sport but get away with misdeeds in your personal life when brands, fans, and millions of dollars are reliant on your supposedly good name. But with that said, Tiger's 5-minute exclusives with ESPN's Tom Rinaldi and the Golf Channel, while exposing nothing new, was his own... Continue reading

Olympic Athletes - Making a Living Off the Ice
With the games around only once every four years, Olympic athletes' time in the limelight is fleeting and always a long time coming for these men and women who undergo years of training for a few seconds of triumph. The 17 days of guts and glory may seem glamorous, but the lives of these competitors are ones of struggle and sacrifice behind the scenes in their three years and three hundred and forty days off the stage. But beyond the priceless medallions and occasional prize money that comes from the competitors' own countries as an incentive to do well, to... Continue reading

Move Forth, Search On
The Super Bowl is always a bittersweet event for many across the nation. While it's the culminating event of the season, it also means no more football for seven whole months. So okay, no more football posts for a while, but how can I avoid joining in on the day-after reactions to the much-anticipated advertisements seen yesterday. I think the consensus favorite was Google's "Search On" commercial - a love story told by queries on the mega search engine. While I don't think it needed any advertising to begin with, their creative team stole the show and the 30 seconds... Continue reading

Eye on the Bowl: Part II
So I had broken down the ad categories of Super Bowl 2009 in one of my September posts as applications for this year's 30-second slots were streaming in to CBS. Promising to revisit the topic, I don't think we ever anticipated the current level of controversy these ad spaces have garnered. Not having sold out its 60-something spots until yesterday, CBS has received much attention over who they've elected to air and reject in light of struggling sales. On CNBC, Darren Rovell gives us a peak into two ads that missed the cut - Mancrunch and GoDaddy. But what heightens... Continue reading

When Fantasy Meets Reality: Part II
Just wanted to follow up on a previous entry - When Fantasy Meets Reality - noting the struggle between one's loyalty to the actual game and devotion to a fantasy team. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel we're seeing a sudden surge in Fantasy fanaticism, from the FX network's new series, The League, to web-episodes from "Fantasy Over Reality." Both attempt to capture the exciting, and sometimes humorous actions fantasy players take in the quest to win their leagues. And while this is undoubtedly meant to entertain, one might ask if it's subtly mocking those who have fallen... Continue reading
