Will this new football league gain traction? The Experimental Football League (FXFL) just completed their first ever six week season. The games were shown on ESPS3 and the league has also gained a big national sponsor in NIVEA Men.

For the record, 5 percent of the players in the FXFL became members of active NFL rosters or practice squads. Bottom line here, football is as popular as ever.

Happy Birthday today to Vin Scully, the greatest broadcaster of all time. There is no broadcaster in history that is more associated with their team than Scully is with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

On the sports biz side Scully's long association with the team, also means big time and loyal sponsors on the radio side, knowing Scully is as popular as ever.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL OF YOU GREAT READERS:

The Detroit Lions first started playing on every Thanksgiving Day at home in 1934 and the Dallas Cowboys did the same in 1966. Both teams felt it would be great marketing for their teams at the time.

Is it time for a change? Would you like to see different NFL teams and mix it up on a rotation basis, as the NBA does with Christmas Day games?

We will soon get the final stats for 2014, when it comes to retail sales of college licensed merchandise. In 2014, that figure was $4.6 billion, with the leader in sales for the ninth straight year being Texas.

Now several schools are amping things up, by getting into the trading card business of their present and former athletes.
