The Games Have Just Begun

In partnership with

Later Diary today, I am very very sorry. I got about 160 texts asking for it. I know this Diary has become a major staple of people’s weeks.

Jokes aside, I am going to keep this evening’s read short for you and share some exciting news with you all.

Fox Sports just announced an investment in Shadow Lion, taking an equity stake and teaming up with us to create original shows, films, and digital content that lives at the intersection of sports and culture. Pretty incredible…

Read the full press release here.

We’re even opening a new office on the Fox lot in L.A. One of the first projects will be a Michigan football docuseries. There is so much more to come.

I’ve been at Shadow Lion for over a year and a half now, and man… I am very happy to see this close for the co-founders Gilad Haas, Ben Rawitz, Jeff Fine and none other than the GOAT Tom Brady.

See, even Tom is excited:

I am lucky to be a small part of this content creating machine.

I’ve seen this team grind day in and day out.

Of course there’s the late nights, ridiculous content ideas, scrappy shoots, the team does it all.

It’s a day to celebrate today but also now the work really starts!

It’s go time.

If you have any questions about Shadow Lion, want to get involved, brand collabs, whatever it may be, give me a ring! Would be excited to chat.

For now, Shadow Lion to the moon. Proud of this team.
