Currently a media hired gun: producer, interviewer, writer, photographer, whatever kind of -er you need.

Just throwing it out there: if any broadcaster/league needs an extra pair of hands, I am available. No qualms about quarantining for weeks/months ... https://t.co/l1AMvYFRFw

Sad news. Adam was a good guy, witty and intelligent, and nice to work with.

Adam Pemble, AP journalist whose compassionate lens brought stories to life, dies at 52 https://t.co/lKCAuG2ZEK

Had a few interactions with Terry and always came away impressed. Decisive and demanding, she commanded respect with her knowledge and understanding of the industry. RIP.

Insane to be at @JohnIsner’s last pre-US Open presser; having been at so many over the last decade-plus. He emphasized that this is indeed it, he’s calling it a career. Hope he has one great final run in Flushing.

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

True story. But no one cared then, no one cares now.

[Skip Bayless @RealSkipBayless]

I tell the story of what a producer once told me in my Cold Pizza days:

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

Cold Pizza being blamed for the current state of sports journalism really is something. While I don’t fully disagree, as a former employee I must point out that Atlantic Video’s other property - PTI - was the model we based 1st and 10 on.

[Esquire @esquire]

20 years after 'Moneyball,' the genre has been drained of its significance—and there's an important culprit to blame.

@90RichardH @MLS Hi Richard, tried to DM but got a failure ...

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

@AdiJoseph Nah, I'm on the lookout for jobs with benefits. Thank you though!

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

40 hours a week, nights-weekends-and-holidays and, since they call it "freelance," they don't pay any benefits ... ain't the industry great these days?

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

Incredibly happy for @ingeechun_dumbo, she always was a delight to speak to when I covered LPGA. Million dollar smile and a true love for playing.

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

I had the pleasure of covering the ANA four, five years and it was delightful each time. The locals adored it, the players loved being there, you could feel the history and reverence for Poppy's Pond... Hope the oil company's employees - I mean, the Houston fans - embrace it too.

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

This is unbelievable. This is akin to the men leaving Augusta. Kind of funny, as it is probably because of the Masters' amateur women's event, the LPGA are moving their most prestigious event to Texas. Just, wow.

[LPGA @LPGA]

Golf's first major is starting a new chapter. 🏆

@Chevron is the new title sponsor of The Chevron Championship (formerly the ANA Inspiration)!

Chevron will increase the prize fund for the 2022 Championship by over 60% to $5 million! 🙌

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

I remember when the event lost Kraft Nabisco, @USGAMike swore to me that he would find another sponsor and the LPGA would not leave Mission Hills - their 'Masters' would continue on. He did that. I guess @mmarcoux91 has less qualms with selling the circuit's soul. Astonishing.

My little girl is in the ICU fighting seizures and brain swelling from a virus. If you pray, please pray for her. If you don’t pray, please keep her in your thoughts. We need all the good vibes we can get. Please share this if you can so my little girl can feel your support ❤️

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

So my non-baseball fan parents asked me if I heard of that Ohtani guy they just profiled on @60Minutes, if I think he will succeed in the majors. 🤷🏻‍♂️

"I'm not coming back to the sport of boxing. Absolutely not." - Floyd Mayweather

[Scott Olivenbaum @ScottMakesTV]

This @FloydMayweather presser is delightful, and completely on brand. When I interviewed him Thursday I asked about his Atlanta 1996 experience. His response?

“I don’t care about no gold medal. I’m trying to feed my family. The boy I fought in the Olympics, he homeless now!”
