This week I'm taking a break from bringing you interviews, as I just returned from the SBJ/Momentum Sports Marketing Symposium in New York. It was my first such conference, and it did not disappoint. While I was only able to stay for part of the first day, I could easily tell that it is worth the investment for anyone in sports business, and specifically marketing. My trip was also filled with visits to the offices/headquarters of the NBA, MLB, USGA, Ketchum, Wasserman, SNY and more. It was great to see so many familiar faces; there's nothing quite like New York.

We have two great guests coming over the next couple of weeks - David Shoemaker of Razorback Sports Properties and Brant Ust of Notre Dame. Both were former colleagues of mine at USA Baseball, and both have gone on to achieve great success in the business side of college sports.

Big thanks both to the SBJ and Momentum for having me this week, and to you for listening. For show notes, past episodes and more, please visit us at www.frontofficeexchange.com, on Facebook at Front Office Exchange and on Twitter at @frontofficeexch.
