On this episode of Commute - The Podcast:
Sports cards were big business in the late 1980s; then the industry became nearly non-existent in the late 1990s. But wait... a single card sold for $2.96 million in 2020?!
Chess isn't just for nerds (or men) anymore.
Champion Sports has seen the highest of highs (NBA jersey/Dream Team sponsor) followed by the lowest of lows (the XFL - the first time). How did the brand return to glory?
