Q&A: Chris Russo
Fantasy Sports Ventures encompasses 350 of the most active and engaging fantasy and sports news sites on the Web, but that is just part of what Russo and his crew do to align such marketers as Sprint, Gillette and Coca-Cola with consumers and digital sports marketing.
By Barry Janoff, Executive Editor, NYSportsJournalism.com
(Posted April 15, 2009)
If you are marketer trying to reach a core demo of 18-49-year-old males, and you don't have a spokeswoman who looks like Gisele Bundchen (Tom Brady has dibs) or Bar Refaeli (last seen dating Leonardo DiCaprio), almost the next best thing would be to align with fantasy sports. The category has topped $2 billion and is still rising, with 29.9 million participants 12 and older in the U.S. and Canada in 2007 (up by 10 million from 2006) according to the Fantasy Sports Assn. So it's not just a niche hobby for gameboys, but a legitimate and burgeoning industry that has attracted the likes of Sprint, Coca-Cola and Gillette into its marketing ranks, as well as those billion-dollar sports companies known as the NFL, NBA, MLB, Nascar and NHL. It also has attracted some of the best and brightest digital marketing executives. From 1999-2005, Chris Russo was svp-new media/publishing for the NFL, where he was responsible for Internet, satellite radio, wireless and traditional print publishing, including managing all day-to-day operations in programming, marketing and advertising sales. In 2006, Russo founded Fantasy Sports Ventures, New York, which oversees two main divisions: the Fantasy Players Network, which is an aggregation of more than 300 Web sites covering fantasy sports, sports news and other related properties; and FSV Digital Sports Advisors, which provides consulting and advisory services for brand marketers, media companies, sports leagues, teams and associations. Russo's crew includes such experts as Clay Walker, FSV general manager, who formerly was svp of NFL Players Inc. and was the founder of the Fantasy Sports Assn.; and Evan Kamer, evp, who from 1998-2005 was senior director-new media/publishing for the NFL. Russo spoke with NYSportsJournalism.com about fantasy sports, digital marketing and aligning brands with consumers.
NYSportsJournalism.com: What was the motivation to form Fantasy Sports Ventures?
Chris Russo: We formed Fantasy Sports Ventures in 2006 as a marketing and media company. As a way to bring digital sports marketing to the brands. I brought four of my colleagues from the NFL with me, we have a couple of people from Yahoo! Sports and a couple of people from CSTV. So we really have a company of digital sports professionals who are focused on solutions. Fantasy sports broadly defines fantasy games. A lot of our sites are fantasy sites, but some are information and news sites for basketball, football, baseball, hockey, auto racing. But they are all relevant to the fantasy category. Over the past couple of years we have aggregated about 350 of what we think are the best independent sports sites on the Web. We own about 25% of the traffic; we have long-term affiliate arrangements with the other 75%. We monetize through advertising and integrated marketing programs. We had 11 million unique visitors in December 2008, which was up 79% from the previous year [the second-largest growth by percentage among the top 250 Web sites] according to comScore.
NYSJ: How did your experiences at the NFL help you develop your strategies about digital sports marketing?
Russo: When I got to the NFL in 1999 there wasn't much of a business around NFL.com so I built that up. We weren't even doing fantasy football because there were some concerns about "What is this?" "Should we be doing this?" So over several years we built that up. Then around 2004-2005 I started getting more queries from the league's marketing partners asking about fantasy sports and digital sports. They wanted to know if they should sponsor the NFL's [fantasy] platform, establish their own games, have their own interactive experiences on their own site, should they tie these games to other events? So one of the reasons I created FSV was that I saw more brand marketers beginning to look for ways to capitalize on engagement online and not just make that an afterthought. In 2001 the feeling was, Here's our big TV thing and let's just throw some media online to support it. But by 2005 there was more of a sense that because the audiences online are so big and because there is a way to measure it and because there is real engagement, maybe the online and digital piece should become a centerpiece. One of the pivot points during my early days at the NFL was not only did we start to run fantasy games on NFL.com but we actually removed the prohibition on broadcasters mentioning fantasy football during NFL games. Previously, broadcasters could not talk about fantasy football during NFL broadcasts. Once that was removed, and there was talk about fantasy football during the games, and we worked with the NFL Players Association to get players to promote fantasy football, then it became more widely known and became less of a niche activity and more of a community activity.
"When the NFL removed the prohibition on broadcasters mentioning fantasy sports during NFL games and we worked with the NFL Players Assn. to get players to promote fantasy sports, it became less of a niche and more of a community activity."
NYSJ: How do you merge fantasy with marketing and make it work for companies seeking to reach consumers?
Russo: It is all about engagement. What is interesting about what we do, and what is the hallmark of the company, is that we focus on digital sports marketing solutions. Digital sports marketing is a concept that is just evolving. Sports marketing 30 years ago was athlete representation. Then it became sponsorships and corporate alliances. Now, sports marketing is really helping marketers leverage their brands in sports online, and doing it in a way that is creative, measurable and well beyond banner advertising. So what we've been able to do is develop custom programs for companies such as Gillette, Sprint, Coca-Cola, Coors and others that is advertising, but really goes beyond advertising. Last year, Gillette wanted to find a way to leverage its Nascar "Young Guns" program online. We we created a "Young Guns Fantasy Challenge" on the Gillette Web site, which was promoted across our 350 sites. Gillette also promoted it on other sites, such as Nascar.com. It was a way of engaging consumers with their brand using sports. We worked with Sprint on a fantasy news widget, where we had content from our six best fantasy football news sites and put it into a widget, which we distributed across our sites. Sprint also took the widget and put it in social media outlets such as MySpace to generate extra exposure. Sprite did an interactive game last year around the NBA draft which was supported on a digital basketball channel.
NYSJ: Even with digital media and new methods of marketing, it seems key to what you are doing and what marketers seek to do is very basic: be where the consumers are.
Russo: Marketers follow the audience. And audience numbers on the Web and around engaging online activities are still growing. Part of that is fantasy football and baseball, but it's also March Madness and college basketball, where more people are filling out their brackets online. We define fantasy sports around windows: the Super Bowl, Nascar launch, baseball launch, college basketball championships. So the notion of what is an interactive activity or an engaging activity has broadened. And marketers like to be in environments where consumers are excited and engaged. What we are doing, and what is still evolving, is working with customers and clients to create integrated programs online that are really an inversion of the typical sports marketing model.
NYSJ: It seems as if going online and getting involved with fantasy sports and engaging with challenging games is low-cost for consumers and won't be hurt by the current economy.
Russo: Today, as the economy is tough and it's harder to justify expenditures on just buying marks and logos or buying traditional media, we think there is a real opportunity to grow the digital sports marketing segment. And that's where we are focused. There is a phenomenon online line about getting involved, being a general manager, testing your skills and knowledge. Marketers want to be part of that. And that's what we work to provide. The numbers among visitors continues to grow. It is a relatively inexpensive hobby. There is some subscription, and those continue to grow. But the business is still ad sales, which in this economy challenging. About a year ago we took a minority investment from USA Today, so they are a minority holder in our company. So we have the opportunity to promote what we are doing online in traditional platforms. We are up 200% in the first quarter of this year versus the first quarter of last year. Part of that is due to the growth and development of our company. But part of that is that advertisers still want to be involved in programs that are very highly engaged and are engaging. But we'd all rather be in a boom market than a recession.
NYSJ: Have you seen any push-back from the core group of fantasy players who see what had been their private domain now going mainstream, where ESPN, USA Today and other media devote significant time and manpower to covering it?
Russo: The growth in numbers is certainly why marketers began to embrace it. Back in 2005 marketers began to see it not just as a niche group but one with mainstream growth. What fantasy sports are today are fundamentally for groups of people to interact: College buddies who stay in touch by being in a league or people at work who do something together outside of the office. People talk about social networking and the integration of social networking into sports. I would argue that the original social networking in sports was fantasy sports. A community of millions is really a lot of communities of 12 cobbled together. It's a way for people to connect and stay in touch.

As children
Babies who are victims of shaken baby syndrome can suffer bleeding in the eye or brain; damage to the spinal cord and neck; rib and bone fractures. These injuries can be fatal.
Child physical abuse can result in the malformation of the brain, resulting in impaired mental development and lack of growth in vital areas.
Child abuse victims as young as three years of age have shown signs of depression and withdrawal symptoms.
Child abuse victims are more likely to exhibit anti-social behaviors, including borderline personality disorders and violent behavior.
Child abuse victims placed in foster or kinship care because of abuse or neglect were found to score lower than other students in tests of cognitive capacity, language development, and academic achievement.
As teenagers
In a study of young adults who suffered child abuse or neglect, 80% met criteria for at least one psychiatric disorder by age 21, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and suicide attempts.
In a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services study of homeless youth, it found that 46% of those surveyed had escaped a home where they suffered physical abuse, and 17% left because of sexual abuse.
Young people who were victims of child abuse and neglect are 25% more likely to experience teen pregnancies, delinquencies, and to suffer mental health problems. They are more likely to perform lower in school, to engage in high-risk sexual behavior, and to use alcohol and illicit drugs.
According to a National Institute of Justice study, abused and neglected children were 11 times more likely to engage in criminal behavior as teens, are 2.7 times more likely to be arrested for violent and criminal behavior as an adult, and are 3.1 times more likely to be arrested for one of many forms of violent crime.
As adults
Adults who suffered child abuse and neglect can develop allergies, arthritis, asthma, bronchitis, high blood pressure, and ulcers, in addition to other physical disabilities because of poor health caused by the abuse.
Child abuse and neglect have been associated with panic and dissociative disorders, attention deficit and/or hyperactivity disorder, depression, anger, and post-traumatic stress disorder in children and in adults who suffered abuse.
Adults who were abused or neglected as children are more likely to abuse alcohol or drugs during their lifetimes. A study found that as many as two-thirds of individuals in drug treatment programs reported being abused as children.
Continuing the cycle of abuse
Researchers estimate that one-third of abused and neglected children will grow up to abuse their own children when they become parents.
How much can child abuse cost?
$124 billion: Estimated minimum annual cost of child abuse to U.S. communities to provide
- Healthcare to treat mental illnesses, substance abuse, mental and physical disabilities, and other health-related issues

- Special education costs
- Unemployment and underemployment services and benefits
Low-end estimated cost per case of child abuse: $210,012
Total cost of public education for 50 million children in the United States (2007-2008): $596.6 billion
Cost per pupil for a public education: $10,441

The Physician Assistant Program is a two year (24 months) educational program consisting of 88 semester credits. During the first year at Miami Dade College, students will complete course work in basic sciences, general studies, clinical medicine, history, and physical examination techniques, and surgical and technical clinical skills. Many of these courses have both a lecture and a laboratory component. During the second year, students are provided with opportunities to develop clinical skills and to expand their knowledge by participating in structured clinical experiences under the supervision of physician assistants, physicians in a variety of specialities. In order to provide students with a broad range of clinical experience, the program utilizes numerous hospitals, primary care centers, and free standing clinical settings within the State of Florida.
Who are Physician Assistants? Physician assistants are health care professionals licensed to practice medicine with physician supervision. As part of their comprehensive responsibilities, the PA conducts physical exams, diagnoses and treats illnesses, orders and interprets tests, counsels on preventive health care, assists in surgery, and in virtually all states can write prescriptions. Within the physician-PA relationship, physician assistants exercise autonomy in medical decision making and provide a broad range of diagnostic and therapeutic services. A PA's practice may also include education, research, and administrative services.
Because of the close working relationship the PAs have with physicians, they are educated in the medical model designed to complement physician training. Upon graduation, physician assistants take a national certification examination developed by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants in conjunction with the National Board of Medical Examiners. To maintain their national certification, PAs must complete 100 hours of continuing medical education every two years and sit for a recertification exam every six years. Graduation from an accredited physician assistant program and successful completion of the national certifying exam are required for state licensure.

Video transcript provided by Newsy.com
Karaoke is fun, but how fun would it be if a couple of superstars did a surprise performance while you were at the bar? Yeah, that happened.
As some women were singing one of Beyonce's songs at a karaoke bar in Miami, they were pretty shocked when Beyonce took the mic and had her BFF and Destiny's Child bandmate Kelly Rowland sing backup. (Via NBC)
Sadly, no video of the performance has shown up online, but there are several good photos of the impromptu singalong.
The Miami bar Sing Sing Karaoke posted pics of the two superstars posing with the lucky women, who were in the middle of singing Beyonce's hit "Party" when Queen B herself and Ms. Rowland joined them. (Via BuzzFeed)
The owner of the bar told the Miami New Times at first the women had no clue who had walked in the room: "And all of a sudden one of the girls looks at Kelly and says, 'Oh, you look like Kelly Rowland,' and then she looks at Beyonce and goes, 'Oh my god!'"
As soon as karaoke patrons realized who was actually in there with them, they quickly busted out the cameras.
But the anchors on KCBS point out they didn't bother to wake up the friend asleep on the couch.
"Yeah, I wonder if she's still talking to them."
Well, obviously fans are curious to know all the deets! Here's what we've heard so far:
"Did they have a big entourage?"
"There was just a few of them, I guess." (Via WLNY)
A few, yes, but they were reportedly a few really big names.
ABC reports Timbaland, Beyonce's hubby, Jay-Z, and her other former bandmate, Michelle Williams were also at the bar with them that night. The group reportedly hung out in the VIP room most of the time.
Guess Blue Ivy stayed with the babysitter. Beyonce and Jay-Z's daughter had actually just turned 2 the night before. (Via E!)

De novo lipogenesis, the production of fats from simple precursors, is often dismissed as irrelevant to the pathobiology of obesity caused by positive energy balance due to typical high fat diets. However, emerging data implicate de novo lipogenesis in the generation of metabolic signals that alter disease risk. Exploiting this signaling pathway represents lipoexpediency. Lipoexpediency is the concept of directing fats toward benefit even in the setting of lipid overload, and represents a strategy to complement efforts aimed at improving energy balance. Optimizing lipid signals initiated by key lipogenic enzymes such as fatty acid synthase might limit morbidity in people who are unlikely to abandon the lifestyle of the sedentary gourmand.

This may be a small convenience feature, but I noticed that I can't preview a file in Ps CS6 in the Open window
Ps CS5 is below:
I can select a PSD file and preview it whereas I cannot in CS6:
Same thing with "Save As" and "Place" windows
Not a big deal, but after all it's the little things that count
The preview was causing problems on MacOS and Windows, and duplicates functionality that is supposed to be provided by MacOS and Windows.
So it became a matter of "how much work do we want to invest in duplicated effort and working around OS issues where they obviously don't want us doing that in the first place?"
Thanks for that -Agfaclack-, I'll take a look at what they have.
SageThumbs (free) adds back PSD previews:
Insanity is hereditary, you get it from your children
I've had it installed for quite a while - it is rather neat (it does RAW as well):
But note that, as installed, it only create previews for files up to 20MB so if you want psd or raw you need to up that in options. You can see this above - I have my options set to 80MB but the file 05B_End.psd is 98.4MB, hence no preview. Also note that initially, when you first enter a folder containing images, it takes a little while to create thumbnail previews (but you can still work with the file while it does that in background).
Insanity is hereditary, you get it from your children
I like the new, cleaner Photoshop CS6 File - Open dialog, though I would have liked it better if they'd have provided a 2-pane Explorer window (with Navigation and Files panes) instead of the old stile with the Favorites Bar along the left side.
Another product for augmenting Windows and showing you thumbnails and previews of your files is the FastPictureViewer Codec Pack.
It's commercial software and last I looked carefully it did some things quite a bit better than SageThumbs. Well worth the price.
I'm showing it here working with Photoshop CS6 and in Windows 8.
Ok I had posed this question in another thread; and was directed to take a look here. Personally, I do not think we should have to install or pay for another program or application to get what we already had with CS5... if it worked in Windows 7 OS in CS5 why can it not work in CS6???? Obviously I am no tech wizzard, but I do know what I need when I work with photoshop! I design clothing using photoshop, and when I am looking for a material file that will work with my design; I may have hundreds of files to select from all very similar unless I can see them. I do not want to open the darn bridge and risk crashing, nor do I want to have to open every single file to see what the heck it is when I should be able to just click on it and see the image below like in CS5.. I may be a minority here but that function saved me one heck of a lot of time; and no I don't think we should have to install another program to get that function! Sorry to me it is more important than it might be to someone else.. I also don't want to add a program that is going to open yet another window to show me the file I want to see; I want the file and the preview in the same place right where I can just click, see, and open .. simple.
I'm with you, Tazz222. I won't be forced to use Bridge. Have never liked it. Never will. If Adobe doesn't think it's worthwhile to make this option work, then I guess they don't think my business is worthwhile. I'm happy with CS5. Wow, now what to do with all that money I won't be giving to Adobe? Hhmmm...
"Forced" to use Bridge?
I'm not saying you should have to pay for a codec pack (I happen to agree that Adobe should provide a good codec for their formats), BUT...
Note these screen grabs of Windows Explorer and Photoshop's File-Open dialog... Note especially the raw file thumbnails. Unseen here is that you can view all of these formats seamlessly in the Windows Photo Viewer.
A good, complete codec pack may just be worth paying for, REGARDLESS of whether you're planning to get Photoshop CS6.
Noel I see your examples above, but that looks like it is in a seperate open window from photoshop; and that is exactly what I am trying to not have to do. Sure you can see the files in what you are showing but can you just click on one you want and have it come up on your workspace in photoshop? I am thinking you would have to get the name of the file then go into photoshop and open find the fille by it's name and then open it.. Too many steps. Or perhaps I am not understanding it correctly. What I want to be able to do is have only photoshop CS6 open, be able to click open, find the folder I need, open the folder, search the files, click on ones that I might want to open and see below a pic of what each file is and then when I find the one I want just click open an have it right there on my workspace. I don't want to have to be switching back and forth from a photo viewer window.. Does anyone understand what I mean?
The second image above IS the dialog you get when you choose File - Open in Photoshop. Just click one and hit [Open] and it's open in Photoshop. I chose Extra Large Icons view to illustrate the point clearly.
Other options, from Explorer, include just drag a file to a Photoshop icon on the desktop, or set it to open on double-click, or right-click and choose Open With...
Does anyone understand what I mean?
Everyone understands what you mean. The preview at the bottom of the File - Open dialog is gone and apparently it's not coming back.
I'm just trying to help you see other ways to accomplish what you want, and you don't seem to be getting it.
Go download the free trial of the FastPictureViewer Codec Pack, install it, then see how it works for yourself!

Would it work for you to browse and open files using the MiniBridge panel inside Photoshop? Yes, it requires having Bridge open in the background, but at least you get to navigate folders with file previews without leaving Photoshop.
Ok Noel I think I have got it now.. I am good at creating my art but sometimes the technology I use to create it makes me a tadd confused. I did as you suggested and downloaded and installed the codec thing you suggested (trial version) and yes you are correct it does show the pics where I need them to. there are even pics on my desktop now that used to be just a big E.. So thank you and all the others who attempted to assist me with this delema.. very grateful.

3Back Scrum Consulting & Training
Doug Shimp
3Back Scrum Management Consulting
Date: 30-31 March, 2009 Location: Minneapolis, MN, United States
Regular Price: 1260
This intense interactive training workshop focuses on Scrum's Product Owner role, which focuses on visioning, roadmapping, and user stories.
Scrum is a proven lean and agile approach to delivering results, a simple "inspect and adapt" framework used to organize work for maximum efficiency and effectiveness using three roles, three ceremonies, and three artifacts wherein stories express requirements and tasks express work.
While the Product Owner role is conceptually simple and involves a few guidelines, the role emphasizes a particular mindset. Many product owners enact the role, but don't readily internalize the mindset, and thus don't experience the benefits of the role.
This workshop not only provides participants with the skills for creating compelling visions, actionable roadmaps, and useful requirements using agile techniques, but it also gives participants practical hands-on experience applying these techniques throughout the workshop. Participants will be introduced to agility and create a vision, roadmap, and work with user roles, user stories, and acceptance tests.
This is not mere presentation-based training but a workshop using experiential learning (learning by doing, including robust simulations and discussions). It is facilitated by active practitioners with decades of real-world industry experience, which is used to highlight and expose participants to many common pitfalls. Experiential learning techniques are used to illustrate key concepts in a comprehensive manner that is interactively tailored to the participants' particular needs. Participants will not only gain a foundational understanding, but will also gain practical insight around the nuances of putting the techniques into practice to maximize results.
Overview Agility: Values and Principles Agile Framework: Roles, Artifacts, and Ceremonies
Agile Visioning: Crafting a Vision Problems and Solutions Stakeholders and Users Needs and Features Assumptions, Dependencies, and Constraints Other Requirements
Agile Roadmapping: Crafting a Roadmap Layers Releases and Milestones Elements and Dependencies
Working with User Roles, User Stories, and Acceptance Tests Understanding Context and Users User Stories and Gathering Techniques INVEST in Good Stories Acceptance Tests and Detailing User Stories
The Product Owner in the Enterprise
Though each CSPO course varies depending on the instructor, all Certified Scrum Product Owner courses focus on Scrum from a product owner's perspective. Graduates will receive the CSPO designation. All CSPO course are taught by Certified Scrum Trainers.
Venue:Hyatt Deerfield7700 France Ave SMinneapolis, MN 55435 United StatesGet Directions
This course is suited for people who have experience being on development teams or are faced with complex product/project development efforts. Individuals from all levels of the corporate structure who deal with rapidly changing demands and complex efforts. Managers, Testers, PM, Analysts, Developers, directors, C-level functions
Participants should have some practical work experience working with agile methods or framework of PMBOK or similar exposure. This is not suitable for people with little to no work history.

We are a bunch of volunteers developing Perl 6 and Perl 6 applications, and try real hard to be nice to each other.
Get in touch with us! Here is how:
Much discussion happens on #perl6, our IRC channel.
A great way to stay tuned is reading blog posts about Perl 6. Planetsix assembles many important and interesting blogs on the topic. Perl 6 and Parrot links is a comprehensive link collection about everything Perl 6.
You can easily immerse yourself into Perl 6 with these great introductory screencasts by Gabor Szabo. Gabor also frequents our IRC channel.
Perl 6 is well represented on Rosetta Code, where you can see Perl 6 (and a great many other languages) applied to numerous programming tasks.
The wiki has a page of categorized links to Perl 6-related videos.
Many wikis collect facts and opinions about Perl 6, the implementations and infrastructure. Though currently we can only recommend the nascent Perl 6 Wiki.
For more persistent discussions (and for the poor folks who can't use IRC) we have several mailing lists.
You can subscribe to each list by sending an email to email@example.com.
Moderated lists for announcements and news. Fairly low traffic (a few mails per month).
Discussions on the Perl 6 language
Discussions on various Perl 6 compilers
User questions about the Perl 6 language and compilers
Coordination of events related to Perl 6 (often together with other Perl or open source events).

MLB Opens Its Vault to Destroy Your Productivity
Major League Baseball, which has hoarded its old archives and clips like Scrooge Freaking McDuck, suddenly released a treasure trove of amazing old highlights. You can find the main archive here.
Some of my favorites:
Jheri-curled, young Pedro Martinez hitting Reggie Sanders with a pitch, causing Sanders to charge the mound. In related news, Pedro was working on a perfect game at the time and clearly had zero intention of hitting anybody. Hate you, Reggie Sanders.
… Tim Raines hitting a game-winning, grand-slam home run at Shea, thus completing an absolutely insane performance in which he homered, tripled, singled twice, walked, stole a base, scored three runs, and knocked in four … after sitting out the first month of the season following collusion by the Expos and every other team. Oh, and Vin Scully was on the mic. The best.
Wait, you want non-Expos highlights, too? FINE. Here's Tony Gwynn's 3,000th hit (at Olympic Stadium, suckers):
… Cecil Fielder parking a monster home run on the roof of old Tiger Stadium:
… Manny Ramirez blasting a shot into the fifth deck at SkyDome:
… Ken Griffey Jr.'s first major league hit:
… Bo Jackson running up an outfield wall:
… and a zillion more classics.
Seriously, just quit your job and leave your spouse now, save yourself the trouble later.

Wesleyan Home → Admission →
This year I directed three 16mm short films and worked on two senior thesis films. I have been a writer for Method Magazine for two years and contributed more than 120 posts to Wesleying as a staff writer since my freshman year. I recently joined Wesleyan's Concert Committee, balancing an $82,000 budget to work with student bookers to bring performers to campus. I'm in two bands, Lioness and Treasure Island, and I compose electronic music under the moniker, Bamenda.
I'd like to pursue a career in film or television. In a few years, I'd like to work with a commercial or music video production house making short and feature length films. I'd like to keep making music and live somewhere where I can continue performing live.
