I couldn't do it without these guys, but I'm the one who gets all the credit.Collection: Sports

[The internet has] already had a huge impact in the sports world, and the play-by-play guys that are not paying attention to it are losing out.

By the looks of things I am going to be busy for quite a few years.Collection: Sports
