This was an amazing conversation between #KobeBryant & @calfussman in the Big Questions podcast.
Truly inspiring to listen to him speak about curiosity, mastering fear, visualizing one self in "the moment," and more.

@FIFAcom@GoldmanSachs 5/ The World Cup is no longer just a football tournament. It's a multinational business ecosystem operating across countries.
I wrote a deep dive for @UNIRuniversidad

1/ Is @FIFAcom 's $13 billion World Cup a masterclass in sports business — or a warning sign?
It's both. Here's what I found researching the commercial architecture of the tournament:
@FIFAcom 4/ And one counterintuitive finding:
@GoldmanSachs says hosting a World Cup has "effectively zero" long-term GDP impact.
Yet Mexico could be the biggest winner — $3B = 0.2-0.5% of GDP, vs <0.1% for the US.
Scale matters less than relative weight.
The power of the athlete as a content creator is undeniable.
@Cristiano’s YT channel outperforms the major clubs and leagues. In today’s sports landscape, an athlete’s personal brand is more than fame; it's a critical asset for clubs aiming to reach new fans...

Does the potential for women's football lie in the ambition of what "we want it to be"?
Or should it be more realistic based on what the numbers and the revenue models tells us?
Great article by @RPMComo . Worth a read even if you disagree...
Diversity of opinion=wisdom
Today Sunday Column is explained in its headline.
It utterly goes against what you will see anywhere else.
Not one for the Kool Aid drinkers.
Columns and podcasts will stop now. I’m going outside, it may be a while. https://t.co/MSZoHrcWq1
@mrjordangardner I wonder if the soccer fan in the US is not willing to spend more on the sport if they are already "commited" to MLS and NWSL
And the preseason matches may not be appealing enough to amplify the funnel with new fans...

Sports properties must learn to put fans first & that means getting them involved!
