Coach David Thorpe, The Godfather of NBA Player Development, joins Michael Rasile on For the Love of Sports to discuss all things NBA!
Coach dives into the NBA Finals between the Heat and the Nuggets dissecting what he'll be looking for and how he thinks each team will fare. We also look at the player development of each organization to see how they've gotten to this point.
We discuss the meteoric rise of Nikola Jokić and how he's been able to become the best player in basketball, especially over the last 3 years. Then we chat about Heat Culture and how they've been able to reach multiple NBA Finals with undrafted players being at the core of their team.
Coach then talks about what it's like working in the league with high-profile athletes and helping them become better while their teams hang them out to dry.

Audie Attar CEO/ Founder of Paradigm Sports joins Michael Rasile on For the Love of Sports to discuss his D1 football playing days and how he was able to take the competitiveness of being an athlete to the sports agency world.
After choosing to finish his football career at UCLA, Audie found an opportunity with a Sports Agency where he could still compete in helping his former brothers make their lives better off the field. Once he went out on his own to start Paradigm Sports, he was able to delve more into the outside interests of these athletes and help them create brands off the field.
Audie now has a thriving sports agency and is business partners with Conor McGregor on his out-of-the-octagon businesses including Proper Number 12, Tidl Sport, and the new Netflix Docuseries McGregor Forever and the remake of Roadhouse!

Joe Delagrave joins Michael Rasile on For the Love of Sports to discuss his journey to becoming the Head Coach of USA Men's Rugby Wheelchair Team, winning multiple Paralympics, and what it was like transitioning from Division 2 Football to wheelchair rugby.
At 19 Joe suffered an unfortunate spinal cord injury which left him, at the time, paralyzed from the neck down. Joe went from a 6 6' tight end to sitting in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. While he went through some dark times, Joe made the best of his situation and started a new love in wheelchair rugby.
After countless hours improving his craft, Joe eventually went on to win 2 Paralympic medals for Team USA and was named team captain.
Joe is now the Head Coach of the USA Men's Rugby Team and uses his skills as an intelligent player to help out those around him.
With the injury, Joe has become an ambassador to Wings for Life, an organization dedicated to research for spinal cord injuries with their biggest event the Wings for Life World Run May 7th!

David Lindsay joins Michael Rasile on For the Love of Sports to discuss his career in sports and becoming a professional speaker.
David played professional Rugby before a couple of knee injuries forced him to retire from the sport. After a short period of time away from rugby, he was approached by an executive for a professional arm-wrestling league where, even with his short stature, he was able to show his ability in a sport dominated by oversized men. Unfortunately, David broke his arm during one of his matches which forced him to retire again.
He once again found himself looking for competition which led him into MMA where he could face athletes his size!
After realizing his desire to help others, he found he could accomplish this at a greater scale when speaking. David has created a keynote speaking business where he builds on the lessons he learned through sports to help the audience connect better with his content.

Justin Jacobson joins Michael Rasile on For the Love of Sports to discuss his career as an Entertainment, Esports, and Video Game Attorney. Growing up loving video games, Justin decided to take his career in law down the path of esports and video games well before it blew up. Realizing that there were very few qualified attorneys in the space he was able to carve out a niche for himself by learning about the people, brands, and decision-makers within esports and video games.
By already understanding the entertainment side of the law, Justin is able to help his clients from both sides of his business expand their brands, cross-pollinate into other areas of interest, and protect their business interests when it's the last thing they might care about.
To become an even bigger authority in the space Justin wrote "The Essential Guide to the Business & Law of Esports & Professional Video Gaming" and teaches as an adjunct professor at three different universities.

Stefano Vaccarino, the Chief Marketing Officer of FTN Network, joins Michael Rasile on For the Love of Sports to discuss his exciting path into the fantasy and gaming space, and how FTN Network is changing the game!
While at a run-of-the-mill day job, Stefano found enjoyment with his NBA Twitter account @bigmoneyplay where he tweeted about NBA DFS. This led him down a wildly different path where he got a product marketing job at an early-stage startup that helped players get more ROI on their DFS lineups.
After the startup, unfortunately, went under, an opportunity with FTN Network quickly came about during the very beginning of the pandemic and Stefano took advantage. FTN Network was built on helping players win their fantasy leagues, win more at DFS, and win more bets, but they have recently added another revenue stream in helping B2B clients by providing some of the best NFL data around!

Jeff Pearlman joins Michael Rasile on For the Love of Sports to discuss his career as a sports writer!
Jeff has written 10 books, many of which you probably know, and we discuss where these ideas come from, how much work goes into each book, and some of his favorites.
Jeff is the writer of Showtime, which has been adapted by Adam McKay on HBO as the show Winning Time, and he explains how the process went to get here and what it's like to be a part of creating the show.
We also chat about why his books on crappy people don't sell as much, what it's like knocking on doors in Alabama, and why some stories are harder to tell than others.
He also has a podcast he does for fun (just like me) on a topic he loves a lot: writing.
