I write about the business and economics of sports with a background that most sports writers do not have. Before I started Beyond the Box Score I spent years in accounting and finance doing due diligence work, family office accounting, and private equity analysis. That training shapes how I approach every story.
When I cover a stadium deal I know how to read the financing structure. When I cover a labor negotiation I understand the cap mechanics. When I write about franchise valuations I have actually worked inside that kind of financial analysis. That combination of sports knowledge and financial literacy is the angle I bring to every piece.
I cover the NFL, NBA, MLB, College Football, College Basketball, Minor League Baseball, and Pickleball. My strongest categories are sports labor and economics, franchise business models, and historical narratives that connect the past to the present financial structure of a sport.
Franchise Economics
Valuations, ownership structures, stadium financing, media rights deals, and private equity entry into professional sports.
Labor and Players Rights
CBA negotiations, salary cap mechanics, NIL policy, minor league wages, and the history of how players got the rights they have.
Media and Broadcast
Streaming wars, broadcast rights deals, the scarcity economics of live sports, and what the next media cycle looks like for each league.
Sports History
Historical narratives with a financial or economic lens. The business decisions and labor fights that shaped what the sports landscape looks like today.
What I Do Not Write
Game recaps, play-by-play analysis, fantasy sports content, or takes designed for clicks over substance. I write reported pieces with a clear argument and real research behind them. If you need volume content I am probably not the right fit. If you need a finance-trained voice that can make sports economics readable for a general audience I am exactly the right fit.
