With my social media column officially launched and generating some buzz, the goal was to further build on the initial column’s success. Considering that the NBA playoffs are underway and the league has been dominant among professional sports organizations in the social space, profiling the NBA seemed a perfect fit. See: The NBA’s social media […]

A few months ago, I wrote a piece for Fox News Latino on the lack of an emerging fighter with superstar potential. On Saturday night, I witnessed what could very well be the career-launching fight of a legend. It most certainly was a candidate for the 2011 fight of the year Victor Ortiz upset Andre […]

I’ve technically been the ESPN.com social media columnist for a little over a month, but now it’s official. Named @Page2, my first column ran on Monday. It’s a notebook format with a large top item and some shorter notes. I spoke with White Sox general manager Ozzie Guillen for the first piece, and he was […]

Wow. That was my reaction to the reaction I got from my latest Fox News Latino column. I know people read my stories, but it surprised me to see my piece go viral. I didn’t expect such a response when I wrote the piece on MLS being in position to surpass the NHL as the […]

I had the opportunity to attend the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference, which is conveniently held annually in my backyard. If not the premiere sports business event, it is certainly one of them. However, during one of the sessions, I noticed a colleague (who was not there) tweeted about the lack of Latino representation on […]

Without a doubt, the biggest story of the week was the blockbuster three-team, 12-player trade the enabled to the New York Knicks to acquire Carmelo Anthony from the Denver Nuggets. Given that Carmelo is undoubtedly the most high-profile Latino player in the NBA, the plan was to pen a column on the star forward pegged […]

Boxing stories tend to do well for Fox News Latino, so I try to focus on the sport more than I have for other outlets. I really enjoy boxing, but it’s been a bit of a challenge as I strive to write stories that appeal to both the dedicated and more casual fan bases. With […]

I try to have my Fox News Latino stories budgeted out in advance, but some weeks, the subject (please forgive the sports pun) becomes a game-time decision. There’s definitely somewhat of a lull post-Super Bowl before we get into the NBA trade deadline, March Madness and MLB Opening Day, and this week, I was looking […]

As I’ve said before, there are moments when the uniqueness of my professional situation dawns on me. Saturday morning, NFL Network was on in the background as I cleaned the house and got my daughter breakfast. (A very glamorous life, I know.) It was an NFL Films piece on Super Bowl IV. An hour later, […]
