Hello sports fans out there in Germany,Russia, and the United States! This is Mary reporting from the beautiful city of Chi-town and the weather is comfortable today. Yes I just wanted to explain to you the reason for the collaboration between me and my boyfriend Ron. I decided to ask him to post on here because #1 he loves sports especially the Chicago Wolves and him playing hockey as well, #2 he loves art and writing, and #3 he could add some graphics to my blog to create interest. So enjoy them and hope all you dedicated readers out there visit this blog once a day to check out what is happening. If you have any questions about me or him or sports at all, feel free to comment or contact me personally at mruscitti@mail.roosevelt.edu - which is my personal school e-mail that I check almost everyday!

How Social Media Impacts Sports Marketing - Mike Germano



Hello my fellow sport lovers! Today I decided to make this post about social media which is everywhere from Facebook to Twitter and these two social networking sites are leading the world in good directions but of coarse not without some consequences such as less face-to-face communication and more people talking through Facebook chat verses calling on the phone and in person as well. Me being a Communications major,  I love everything about sports and social media and enjoy the the video above! Have a great day! :)

Funny hockey fight



Two litle boys fighting! haha lol :)

Connectivity - Social Media - and Sports


Howdy all my sports fanatics! The topic for today is how social media such as Facebook and Twitter connects us with our love of sports. Checking Facebook whether it is on a mobile device or a basic computer or tablet is handy because knowing what is happening with our teams no matter what sport it is, is very important. Even during the off season, personally, I find it exciting to see what is currently happening with the coaching staff or players being traded for whatever reason. However, given this connectivity, comes the consequence of not interacting with individual sports fans face-to-face and the devotion becomes in a way superficial until the actual season begins.

What is a sports fan to do during the off season besides keep in constant communication with their sports friends or watch endless clips of great touchtowns or goals? Well, all my sports lovers out there, you could always hang out with those close sports fans of yours where you live or really anywhere and all come decked out in team gear. However, if that all fails, then you could always spend endless hours in that particualr sports jersey, cheering, not sleeping, going around your neighborhood at midnight and just going on random rants, and gaining the reputation of a "crazy" sports fan. And that is ok all you fanatics out there, we are special people in this vast world and it's ok to embrace that craziness and what better way to do that then with friends or as I say my " hockey family". Anways, always stay connected with your team no matter what and keep up-to-date with what is going on because when the season does start, you'll pretty much look like dumbass if you don't know what every other fans of the sport is talking about. Until later, all you crazy sports fans in the beautiful city of Chicago- what what- and around the world have a great day and enjoy this clip.

Love and Sports


Hello my sports fans out there. Today is Saturday May 5th, 2012 and it is a beautiful day in Chi town! On the agenda today is how sports and love go hand in hand with each other. Me being a Chicago Wolves fan, I've had my relationships at the games and it is just ironic how you can find someone special while atttending a game or simply by knowing friends of friends. I'd love to hear any stories from around the world whether from the United States, Russia, Italy, or anywhere else in this vast world of sports out there. Tell me how these love stories built around sports have changed your life and what lesson you've learned from them. Until later Chi town and my sports lovers. Have a great day! :)


* And yes, the hockey picture is of Justin Bieber! MY LOVE... <3
