LVSportsBiz.com: Where sports, business and politics intersect.

Scoop by Scoop, LVSportsBiz.com Is Gaining Traction — Come Join Our Journey

By ALAN SNEL

 

Any epic journey begins with modest first steps.

 

 

Less than three months after LVSportsBiz.com was launched, our website of original content based on where sports, business and politics converge is gaining traction.

 

 

LVSportsBiz.com is grabbing people’s attention. The Sports Business Daily, which offers a daily summary of sports-business news from across the country, consistently cites LVSportsBiz content such as this week, when it referred to our story on the BIG3 basketball title in Vegas over the weekend.

 

“In Las Vegas, Alan Snel wrote the “constant hip-hop music during the games created a fun, chill competition setting” (LVSPORTSBIZ.com, 8/26).”

 


It was great to talk LVSportsBiz news items with noted sports columnist Ed Graney on ESPN Radio here in Vegas yesterday and I hope we have a weekly segment with Ed on Tuesdays at 11:30am on 1100AM/100.9FM


You will be seeing the work of young talented journalists such as writer Julie Ann Formoso and photographer  Daniel James Clark on LVSportsBiz.com this week.

 


We are journalists looking at the crossroads of sports, business and politics in Las Vegas because these are historic times in the Vegas market.

 

LVSportsBiz.com is proud to document all the news at this topical crossroads. If you are interested in advertising or contributing, I want to hear from you at asnel@LVSportsBiz.com
