Show 91 – 21/03/2012

March 20, 2013 by Matt Crevin Leave a Comment

Our fearless leader Matt was away again…and “Do you know what happens when dad leaves?” The kids get to party like it’s no tomorrow. Starting off we had our Tip of the Hats and the issues that had us saying WTF?! Or headlines that had us wanting to say SUCK IT! (courtesy of the super one Kristina). Our group Tip of the Hat goes to Joel for bringing up his beloved Phillies, and to Kristina for not bringing up her beloved Clippers. Following we had a quick buy and sell segment and Don hit us with a Baseball update for spring training.

Coming back from break we leaded off with a quick score update of the WBC game. Moving into our next segment we had a massive Pick of the Week sponsored every week by InkFiend clothing. Our picks consisted of UCLA vs. Minnesota, Oregon vs. Oklahoma St., Pittsburgh vs. Wichita St., & UNLV vs. California. Don picked UCLA, Oregon, UNLV, & Wichita State Kristina picked UCLA, Oregon, UNLV, & Pittsburgh. Following we had a loaded Buy and Sell segment full of NCAA basketball goodness. Finally we had one of the best moments we’ve had on the show Mr. Bear Fan Ron and our Hurricane aka our “Sports Guru” went off on the football gods. We’d like to thank everyone for joining us tonight AS ALWAYS LADIES AND GENTS GOOD FIGHT GOOD NIGHT.

Show 90 – 12/03/13

March 13, 2013 by Matt Crevin Leave a Comment

No host tonight so the co-hosts took over yet again, so LET THE GAMES BEGIN! Opening up the show we had our Sporting highlights and Tips of the Hat from the week that was. Next we broke into a baseball discussion between our three co-hosts Don, Kristina, and Joel and for the record according to Kristina Kevin Youkilis is the most undateable man in the league. Following we led a WBC (World Baseball Classic) discussion finally we had the man of the hour Mr. Bear Fan Ron come into the building.

Coming back from break we had our Pick of the Week segment where Kristina picked her beloved Clippers over the Memphis Grizzles and Don picked the Grizzles. Our Pick of the Weeks segment is sponsored every week by InkFiends clothing. Following our picks we moved into the Around the Dial Segment prepared every week by the “Super” one Kristina. Afterwards we had Don give us a quick breakdown of the NCAA Tournament teams on the bubble. Following that Kristina gave us a quick breakdown of the NBA Playoffs. Finally we hit our final segment with a rapid fire buy and sell segment where the hosts bought everything under the sun until Don sold our last buy and sell. AS ALWAYS LADIES AND GENTS GOOD FIGHT GOOD NIGHT!

How To Win In Your Job Interview

March 12, 2013 by Matt Crevin Leave a Comment

Whether I am on college campuses or talking on the phone with coaching clients, I’m asked for advice on how to break into the sports industry all the time. I really enjoy when some little bit of advice really resonates for someone and makes a difference in his or her search –

The consistently best bit of advice I offer, that has come back to me time and again, is this:

When it gets to that part of the live interview with your future boss where they ask, “well, do you have any questions for me?”, say yes, and ask:

“How do I help YOU get a great review next year?”

This bit of advice has helped more people in more interviews than any other bit of advice I’ve shared over the years.

Why?

Well, the interview process lends itself to self-absorption. We spend so much of the time talking about ourselves that we forget that we sound like one of those people who only talks about themselves.

People typically ask all sorts of questions about the job and reporting structure and how it fits in with the company’s five-year plan and so on. We get so obsessed with the details of the job that we forget about the work.

Working together and being a good addition to the team means being concerned with how you are making the team successful. And that means being concerned with how much you are helping to make your boss successful.

Asking this question shows that you have empathy. It shows that you have an interest in your boss’ career and future success. It shows that you are not just a self-absorbed “what’s-in-it-for-me” kind of person. And it shows that you know you are there to “give” as much as you are there to “get”.

The “get a great review” question is an easy tip to implement in your job search: it’s easy to do, easy to understand, and it’s easy to measure.

And that makes it my best bit of career advice ever.

Are you ready to get in the game?

Show 88 – 26/02/13

February 27, 2013 by Matt Crevin Leave a Comment

Marco Cerino started from the bottom and now he’s working his way to the top. Marco started a sports network at the University of Penn with some college friends. He moved onto working for Comcast and eventually took his talents to the Federal Hockey League as a part of the player personnel, and then he moved to a larger League with the Cape Cod Blue Fins. Eventually Marco scored an interview with the Philadelphia Eagles organization in the Inside Sales department where he sells the premium seat tickets packages. Marco gave some vital information to our listeners when starting at the bottom. Marco stated: “The main thing you can do is go with your gut, just try it if it works it works; and if it doesn’t you just look stupid.” Cerino also stated: “If you’re interviewing for a team that you hate don’t rub in that you hate that team because they beat you’re team numerous times.” Another nice tidbit Marco gave out was that listeners should intern where they fill can get some necessary experience.

Coming back from the break we had our Pick of the Week segment sponsored by InkFiend Clothing. Moving on we had a quick Buy and Sell segment where we had a quick battle between Don and Kristina. Next we had our Around the Dial segment prepared every week by super intern Kristina. Finally we had a quick fly by with the College Basketball Bracket Builder week coming up. As always Ladies and Gents GOOD FIGHT GOOD NIGHT!
