Today I will be reviewing the site, The Businss of Sports blog This is one of the blogs I follow via Google Reader.
The first site, 'The Business of Sports' is run by Russel Scibetti who graduated with a Sports Business MBA from Arizona State. He is now an employee of the New York Jets. He seems to have a very well- rounded knowledge of sports and of business, and his blog reflects that.
The site itself is very well written and full of valuable content. The site covers topics ranging for, sales, marketing efforts, agent news, game projections, and other news. I really like that they also seem to have a focus on the up and coming sports professional, highlight by their post about networking event all across the country. The also have a weekly post called "Free agent of the week" which puts a spotlight on a young business professional. They are allowed to post a profile of themselves, answer some questions, and hopefully find the job of their dreams.
In all, I think everyone serious about become a sports business professional should follow this blog or at least check in frequently. The content is relevant and updated often, the owner and other writers are knowledgeable, and the have special post for young professionals. This site is definitely a go to site for me and should be for others.
