What Do You Think Of Sports Business Journal’s Most Influential Rankings In Baseball?

Sports Business Journal has ranked their 50 most influential people in sports business. Here are the BASEBALL people from the list. What do you think of the ordering? (Order, not rank. Rankings involved people from the lesser sports and elsewhere.)
6. Bud Selig, Commissioner of Baseball.
18. Bob DuPuy, MLB preznit & COO.
20. John Henry, owner of New England Sports Ventures, including the Boston Red Sox, Fenway Park, and a big piece of NESN.
22. Tim Brosnan, MLB executive VP of business.
28. Hal (not Hank) Steinbrenner, New York Yankees co-chair.
29. Bob Bowman, preznit/CEO, MLB Advanced Media (web stuff).
41. Don Fehr, executive director, MLB Players Association.
42. Scott Boras, player agent.
So that’s the baseball folk — four guys in the executive suite, two heads of top-shelf teams, the union’s top man, and the most aggressive agent in the biz. I think the order is about right, though Hal may be lower than he should (still wet behind the ears in MLB though).
Since you’ll want to know, here’s the top five:
1. George Bodenheimer, preznit of ESPN & ABC Sports.
2. Jerry Jones, Dallas Cowboys owner.
3. David Stern, NBA Commissioner.
4. Roger Goodell, NFL Commissioner.
5. Dick Ebersol, NBC Sports chair.
And, not that he has anything to do with baseball after all these years, but at #49 we find Peter Ueberroth, former Commissioner of Baseball (1984-89) and former head of the US Olympic Committee. Hiya, Pete.

Is This Only In Baseball?

In the NFL (Zzzzzz) whenever a team becomes really good, all of the sudden everybody is a fan. New England, Dallas, Pittsburgh, Miami, and all the others had hordes of fans.
The Chicago Bulls when they had ‘I wanna be like’ Mike Jordan.
So in baseball, The New York Yankees won 27 of 96 World Series. Yet, everyone hates them.
A TERRIBLE franchise like the Cubs — not talking down some obviously terrific players they had over the eras — that can NOT seem to win or care too much if they do become the darlings of baseball.
Why is that? I know there are fans of regional teams, but it seems like whatever team you do like, you hate the Yanks and love the Cubs. I don’t get it. How come?

Air Force Academy Falcons Tickets

The Falcons will finish the Golden Bear Classics this season with games against UNVL at USAFA on January 31, BYU at USAFA on February 3, San Diego State at San Diego on February 7, New Mexico at USAFA on February 11, Utah at Salt Lake City on February 14, TCU at Fort Worth on February 18, Colorado state at USAFA on February 21, UNLV at Las Vegas on March 4 and BYU at Provo on March 7.

Falcons team members include freshman guard Brandon Provost from Houston Texas, junior guard Saj El-Amin from Clearwater Florida, freshman guard Jon Atkins from Las Vegas Nevada, freshman forward Trevor Noonan from Broomfield Colorado, guard/forward Taylor Stewart from Lexington Kentucky, sophomore center Phillip Brown from Jonesboro Geogia, junior guard Avery Merriex from Denver Colorado, sophomore forward Derek Brooks from Nathalie Virginia, senior forward Matt Holland from Dallas Texas, freshman guard Shawn Hempsey from Encinitas California, junior center Mike McLain from Portland Oregon, freshman center Sammy Schafer from Oregon City Oregon, sophomore guard Evan Washington from Columbus Ohio, guard/forward Anwar Johnson from St. Gabriel Louisiana and junior forward/center Grant Parker from Aurora Colorado.

The coaching and support staff works very hard to make a difference in the lives of the team members, both individually and as a team. Coaches include head coach Jeff Reynolds, assistant coach Dave Pilipovich, assistant coach Steve Snell, assistant coach Rob Pryor, assistant coach Kevin Carroll, assistant coach Capt. Tyron Wright and video coordinator Nate Zandt.

Fans and spectators alike had the opportunity to witness the Air Force versus TCU men’s basketball game on the air on January 17 as a pay-per-view event. Although some might say that paying to watch a game that should have been free was not fair or right, there was reception for the on-demand airing of the game, which cost viewers $9.95.

The CBS College Sports Network providing service for the game with industry-leading cable and digital programming that is dedicated virtually exclusively to college sports. They covered the competition between the Air Force and TCU and made it available to viewers nationwide.

Recently, the Falcons couldn’t hold their own against the Cowboys in Wyoming. Even though the Falcons led the game at halftime with a score of 32 to 21. It was enough of a lead to take home a win but the Cowboys deemed it not so, catching up, passing the Falcons and creating a lead of 45 to 43 with just under 11 minutes of play time left in the game. By the end of the game, the Cowboys had taken over and tucked the game in the proverbial back.

The win over the Falcons brought their tally of losses up to seven. The Cowboys took home a win over the Falcons and closed with a 16 to 10 run. The loss also marks the first time that the Falcons have been 0-6 in conference play since the 1993-1994 season. Henke, Hempsey, Stewart, Parker, Johnson and Holland are star performers with various noteworthy plays lately.

10 Good Looks for Your 09′ Fantasy Football Team

Some call them sleepers, others may call them value picks…I like to refer to them as “good looks”. Like in basketball when a player makes a good pass, they say “good look”. In other words, players worth taking a good look at. Always lookin’ out for you, here are some good looks to keep in mind for your 2009 fantasy draft:

1. Matt Forte- Almost everybody has Adrian Peterson going first, but what about second? Well, on April 3, 2009 Matt Forte went from being a fantasy stud, to serious consideration for this spot when the Bears acquired not only Jay Cutler but also massive OT Orlando Pace. Jay Cutler’s arm will open up the field for Forte and if Pace can stay healthy, watch out for a monster year from the second year back.

2. Michael Turner- the NIU product and former LT backup took the fantasy world by storm last year. Add Tony Gonzalez and give Matt Ryan another year under his belt and the sky is the limit. Absolute tree trunks for legs, a tackler’s worst nightmare and a good look at the two or three spot.

3. Maurice Jones-Drew (MJD)- I wouldn’t put him in the AP, Forte, Turner class just yet, but worth a good look in the mid first round. With Taylor off to New England and the Jags investing early picks on the o-line (Eugene Monroe, Eben Britton), this sneaky little running back has the potential to carry a team, especially in a PPR league.

4. Calvin Johnson- Ever heard of the third year receiver theory? Call me a homer but Daunte Culpepper is 30 pounds lighter and reunited with his former offensive coordinator Scott Linehan. The Lions new offense is set up for vertical passing…Think Randy Moss circa 2000. In case you were wondering, 15 TD’s over 1400 yards. Of course, it is a risky pick because if they get off to a bad start again they could be forced to play the rookie Stafford. But on the bright side, they should be trailing in many games, thus forced to throw the ball more. There should be a run on top tier receivers in the second round, and CJ is a good look there.

5. Pierre Thomas- Don’t forget about the PT Cruiser. A back getting goaline touches in one the leagues most potent offenses. He was a pleasant surprise for many who took a chance on him off the waiver wire late 2008. Runs and catches well, and proved to be a very effective compliment to Reggie Bush. Expect him to pick up where he left off and an excellent look in the third round.

6. Chris “Beanie” Wells- This guy couldn’t have come into a better situation. I’ve heard him compared to the one and only Jim Brown, so his potential is through the roof. Although Wells is not a perfect fit for the Cardinals system because they run a lot of spread offense, he will have many holes to run through and he attacks the line of scrimmage very well. He should have many opportunities to score in the potent Arizona offense. Injury questions are the only down side here, but worth a good look in the early mid rounds 4-6.

7. Felix Jones- Only played in 6 games last year, but worth a look in rounds 6-8. Although Dallas has a well-balanced offense even without T.O. I expect the run and Felix Jones to get more involved. I love Marion Barber but I have a hunch that his violent running style could keep him out of some games this year, opening the door for Felix and his explosive speed. An especially good look for Barber owners to handcuff their investment in the Cowboy backfield.

8. Greg Olsen- word on the street is that Olsen and Cutler have good chemistry already. Cutler’s main tight end in Denver Tony Scheffler was involved quite a bit and with Chicago’s lack of quality wide receiver’s I would expect many targets and good numbers from Olsen this year. Check out what he had to say on his blog about Cutler http://tr.im/lX8A. Many people will have him as their fourth tight end on the board but I think his numbers will be more worthy of being the first or second tight end taken, thus creating a good look in the mid rounds.

9. Carson Palmer- a risky pick coming off an injury and losing a great possession receiver like Houshmanzadeh. Many gm’s will sleep on him because of this, however the Bengals picked up some intriguing new weapons in the draft for him. Massive OT Andre Smith protecting him should bode well for his production along with finally having a pass-catching TE in Chase Coffman. Coffman won the Mackey Award last season as college football’s top tight end and the Bengals picked him 98th overall in the third round. Look for Palmer to provide great value in rounds 10 and lower.

10. Bernard Berrian- Favre comeback or not, the Minnesota offense will be improved with the addition of Percy Harvin and OT Phil Loadholt. Berrian would have downfield opportunities if they put me in their backfield but defenses will obviously key in on Peterson, Harvin provides another distraction and before you know it double B is in the end zone. A decent two, strong number three receiver with potential to be even more if Favre comes back. Good look in rounds 7-9.
