Not sure if you all saw this year's Fortune 30 under 30 in Sports, but I
just wanted to make a (not so) shameless plug about my good friend, and
former roommate when I was living in NYC, making this year's list.  It's
not a bad list of people to be keeping company with either.  Just figured
this group of sports enthusiasts would appreciate this.....
