Mergers Always Look Great on Paper

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

In PowerPoint decks, mergers are easy to create and manage. In real life, they aren’t so easy. One and one is supposed to equal three. In this deal, it equals $1.14 per share. Yuck.

Kicking It Re-airs Tonight on ESPN2

Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

If you missed the premiere last night, Kicking It will be rebroadcast at 10:00 pm EST this evening on ESPN2.

It is an interesting experience to watch a film on commercial television. I thought our movie showed very well but commercial interruptions do play with the flow of the film and the ticker on the bottom of the screen is a bit of a distraction.

That being said, to have ESPN broadcast this film worldwide on cable television is truly a thrill and an honor.
