Should Dodgers Look to Social Media to Reinvigorate Brand?
April 2, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
The purchase of the Los Angeles Dodgers for $2.15 billion, plus millions more for improvements may be good news for sports teams as it appears valuation continues to rise but the team needs to resurrect its standing among the LA sports world. It seems that any group that can pay roughly two and half times the previous high for a MLB team and five times what its previous owner did will pose a Read More>>

Sunday Sermon: CBSSports.com Does Digital Right
April 1, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
If I told you that CBSSports.com has broadcast 15,000 live events across its digital and broadcast properties since September, you might think it was just another April Fool's joke. But this very serious factoid, divulged in an interview with CBS last week, is just another hint that the "Big Eye" network is getting things right when it comes to bringing sports fans more of what they want, no Read More>>

NASCAR Running at Martinsville
March 30, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
The racing crowd, or at least portions of it, will be happy to see that we at MSR will be tracking the Sprint and Nationwide races a bit more each week starting with “Watching NASCAR this Week”, a title that is a poor imitation of our “Watching Golf this week” effort. The goal is to provide information on where the races are, when they are, and who is leading this week. The primary focus, at least Read More>>

Friday Grab Bag — Come for the Red Sox Game, Stay for the Bootmobile
March 30, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
For Red Sox Fans & L.L Bean Aficionados: Two venerable institutions are celebrating their 100th Anniversaries this year and what could be more natural than L.L. Bean teaming up with Fenway Park to celebrate that event? A lot you say, well quiet down. Of the most interest to the average fan I believe will be the display of a large and unique collection of baseball artifacts that were collected Read More>>

Asus Transformer Prime Tablet- You Win Some and You Lose Some
March 29, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
Asus got some good news while revealing some bad news this week. It prevailed in a lawsuit brought by toy maker Hasbro, but it revealed at best lackluster sales of one of its flagship products, the Asus Transformer Prime Tablet. The good news was that the request for a preliminary judgment that would have prevented Asus from using the Transformer Prime name has been refused. Hasbro filed for Read More>>

Bleacher Report Adds ‘Team Stream’ Feature to Home Page
March 29, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
In a somewhat circular form of innovation, the functionality of Bleacher Report's popular Team Stream mobile app -- which surfaces a curated "stream" of news about a team or sport -- is now an integral part of Bleacher Report's main website home page. Actually live since sometime last week, the Team Stream feature for B/R's home page allows visitors to customize what stories they see in the Read More>>

Watching Golf This Week: Houston and the Last Chance for Masters
March 29, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
Welcome to a new feature here at MSR, something we are calling "Watching Golf this week," at least until we come up with a better title. Anyway, what we're doing is compiling all the ways you can watch the PGA Tour this weekend -- online, on TV, on Twitter, and anywhere else we can find. Please give us a shout in the comments if you know of other outlets or have favorite columnists or reporters Read More>>

Boston Bruins Combine all Social Media in Bruins DEN
March 28, 2012 By Paul Kapustka
While lamenting the fact that it is impossible for my March Madness team, now in second, to gain any additional points I failed to notice that the Boston Bruins have launched one of the most aggressive aggregation sites for social and traditional media concerning the team. The Bruins, winner of the last Stanley Cup, have launched the Bruins Digital Entertainment Network (DEN), a site that Read More>>
