Here is ESPN’s prognosis on the NHL’s Eastern Conference.
I have no comment although I think the article is witty and the songs quoted are cool.
We are flattered but remember, “No one knows nothing.”

ESPN Speaks
Friday, October 2nd, 2009Thirty Years of ESPN
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009I feel like ESPN has been a friend of the family for decades.
I am about midway through a new book called ESPN The Company by Anthony F. Smith. It is a good read about a company that is now one of the most valuable franchises in all of media and business.
ESPN is a worldwide highly valued brand with literally hundreds of millions of fans; billions and billions of dollars in revenues; and is probably one of the most profitable franchises in business today.
ESPN is celebrating its 30th Anniversary and the Huffington Post did a great piece on ESPN with a terrific video montage in homage to the brand. Check it out by clicking here. Enjoy.

Portals are Still About Bread and Butter
Friday, March 6th, 2009Portals are really all about email; messaging; stock quotes; and - of course - search. Yahoo mail; AOL mail; Hotmail are the big drivers of clicks. It amazes me that the portals don’t double down on communications and make mail, messaging and the address book better; cleaner; faster; and spam free! What could possibly be more important?
News, music and movies sneak in a bit as content sites and some other functionality for video and audio playing. But specialists are winning here: Hulu, YouTube, ESPN, CNN, Google News, etc. etc. It is hard for a portal to win in specialist areas.
Alex is Cooler Than Beckham

Clueless at ESPN…Again
Friday, November 14th, 2008Check out this article.
Last time I looked, the Caps were 12th in the NHL in overall attendance. Revenues are up by double digits, 25 percent. We were the second fastest-growing team in the NHL. We have increased our season ticket holder base dramatically. We have a sea of red at games and the NHL is booming too.
Now let us look at Disney, parent company of ESPN. Last quarter, Disney earnings were down 13 percent. The outlook is sobering. One analyst said it was “an ugly, ugly quarter.”
Overall revenues grew only six percent. ESPN ad revenues were down. Stock price is way down. Analysts are growing concerned about outlook. Layoffs are coming, big cuts everywhere. Now Sports Czar, what is it that you want to say about our team; our fans; and our outlook again? Your move.
