We're not buying what other organizations are saying Buster. Then again it is also sad said person could not put a name to their face for when they said "this makes us all look bad." Sorry but Major League Baseball (MLB) and owners have looked bad for a long time when it comes to the situation regarding Oakland. Funny thing is this all could have been avoided if #MLB had a #legitimateleadership and a #competent #commissioner.

Utah sports magnate Ryan Smith is publicly lobbying the NHL to add an expansion franchise in Salt Lake City. With the city's growth trajectory and Smith's extensive sports holdings, there's a compelling argument. - Smith owns the Utah Jazz (NBA) and co-owns Real Salt Lake (MLS) and Utah Royals (NWSL). He proposes building a new arena optimized for hockey. - Salt Lake City hosted 2023 NBA All-Star weekend and will likely get the 2034 Winter Olympics. It's bidding to be a temporary home for MLB's Oakland A's as part of an expansion push. - Utah was the fastest growing U.S. state in the 2020 census, with SLC drawing people in with tech jobs and relatively low costs compared to other big metro regions. - The NHL says it's not focused on expansion now but called SLC "a promising market," and will keep talking to Smith. Between its strong ownership group, winter sports infrastructure, and rapidly expanding population/economy, Salt Lake City checks numerous boxes for NHL expansion.

Visionary, Founder & CEO of All In One Accounting | Advising entrepreneurs on profitable growth and helping nonprofit leaders amplify their impact
A huge congratulations to the Timberwolves for their incredible comeback win last night! 🏀👏 Overcoming a 20-point deficit to eliminate the reigning champions, the Denver Nuggets, 98-90, shows us that anything is possible. The buzz this morning is all about resilience and never giving up. While I love that sentiment and am proud of the hometown team, I can’t help but think about the Denver Nuggets and the lessons we might learn from their loss last night: • Avoid Complacency: Up by 18 at halftime but let it slip. We should never ease up. • Stay Humble: Overconfidence can trip you up. • Continuous Innovation: Keep listening to your customers and team and always look for ways to improve. • Team Effort: Success isn’t just about the stars; everyone’s contribution counts. • Adaptability: Be ready to change strategies when things don’t go as planned. • Embrace Change: The world and business environment change too rapidly to stand still. Let's never let a "lead" keep us from pushing hard forward! 🚀💪 #Timberwolves #NBA #Basketball #Resilience #Leadership #Teamwork #Innovation #Success #Adaptability #BusinessLessons #AIOA #Accountinuity #VeracityPros
