John Oliver didn’t just rename a minor ⚾️ league team—he launched a brand. Erie Moon Mammoths = part satire, part merch machine, all IP play. Late-night meets long-tail licensing. 🦣🌕.(@danielkreps @RollingStone) #MiLB #EriePA #SportsBiz #SportsMerch.

Mammoth move by @RyanQualtrics x @ryanjsweeney. Utah roots. Global vision. @haloxco raised $875M in 8 weeks—117 investors betting big on tech-powered sports IP. When sports + tech align, scale plays jazz 🎷📈 (@SBJ) #SportsTech #SportsBiz

Live sports still rule the group chat. But #LoveIslandUSA is sneaky elite at reviving the “watch together, text together” energy of old TV. Communal viewing isn’t dead—it just moved to group texting, TikTok, & yes, IRL watch parties.📺❤️🔥🍿(@marymacTV)

You don’t have to love 'Love Island USA' to appreciate that in this increasingly fractured time of TV viewership, it is drawing people together, our columnist writes.

Earl Weaver was part manager, part mad scientist, part showman. Analytics before Moneyball. Fundamentals over flair. Ump arguments worthy of Broadway. Earl didn’t just manage—he performed. Must-read baseball book by @jwmjournalist. #Orioles #OriolesMagic #TheOrioleWay

Focus. Discipline. Execution. Rinse + repeat. #TrustTheProcess.
This is one of my favorite speeches of all time…. It always hits me hard:. “You get up every day—you’re entitled to nothing. Nobody owes you nothing. You could have talent, but if you don’t have discipline, and you don’t execute, you don’t focus… What do you get? Nothing. If

I see you @JakeFlannigan x @the1tonygill x @KevinKaduk stacking Chicago sports talent. 👀. Adding @adamjahns to @CHGO_Bears with @AdamHoge? Elite move. 💥. Love watching @CHGO_Sports grow—content, community, events, orig. merch. All of it. 📈🐻⬇️.
At CHGO, I’m onto new things. But it’s still the Bears. It’s still Chicago. And I’m not going anywhere. My column:

The biggest baseball brainiacs on the planet congregated in North Texas. Rest assured, they had a ball.

Tigers’ Casa Amor booth just said ‘I’ve got a text!’ + fake-called a bombshell homer like their head was fully turned. Rain delay turned situationship. More like a recoupling ceremony. Brilliant, @daniellabruce x @jasonbenetti. (@awfulannouncing).
Come for Jason Benetti learning about Love Island, stay for Daniella Bruce working it into a home run call, and savor Andy Dirks fist-bumping himself.
