NBR plans weekly segment on business of sports

Nightly Business Report today (Nov. 4) announced a new weekly feature, “Beyond the $coreboard,” that “gives viewers in-depth analysis of the biggest sports stories of the day and what they mean for Wall Street.” NBR is partnering with Rick Horrow, author of “Beyond the Box Score: An Insider’s Guide to the $750 Billion Business of Sports” and is a visiting expert on sports law at Harvard Law School. His Miama-based Horrow Sports Ventures is a facility development advisor to teams, leagues, universities, government agencies, and nonprofits. Horrow has been a contributor to NBR since the 1980s, the announcement said.

CLARIFICATION: A spokeswoman for Harvard Law School said Horrow last participated in the Sports Law program at the university in 2006, and is not currently active there.
