JRZY is extremely thrilled to have Angelo Messina as one of our athletes on our Athlete Advisory Board. By day he is a chemistry teacher for grades 6-12 and on nights and weekends he is a professional footgolf athlete from Long Island. Angelo works hard everyday to achieve his dream of becoming a paid and sponsored professional athlete. 

Why are coaches being such hypocrites? 

Institutions that exploit their power and human capital are now at great risk of their industries and business models being disrupted, and the people will benefit from it. Automated fractional ownership and decentralization is a win for society. This is why we’re building the Decentralized Athlete Playground. 

We believe that by providing a proper opportunity and foundation, any athlete can easily activate the global community and use their own likeness, story, and dreams to fundraise their journey.

The benefit of NIL isn’t just the deals and sponsorships, it also allows athletes to start their entrepreneurial journey much earlier in life at a time that often is a highlight of their career. When their opportunity comes they are already prepared to capitalize on it.

An athlete’s prime isn’t predetermined, and now athletes will be able to benefit from their efforts in the present instead of waiting for a window that may not align with their career trajectory.

The problem we initially set out to solve as a company was to find something that resonates globally and also serves the 99% of athletes who don’t have solutions, access, and opportunities knocking down their doors.

The NCAA wouldn't dare to leave billions on the table, neither should athletes.

By 2050 Africa’s combined GDP is expected to top USD $29 trillion!

Shoutout to the allies of women's sports who have used their voice for equality because one thing we all care about as athletes is competition and winning. When you pay attention, the difference is only in our minds.

As International Women's Day and Women’s History month passes look for opportunities to collaborate, listen, and elevate women in your workplace. Seek out the opinions of women and people of color because as history has shown us these voices won’t be heard without help from our Allies.

The sports media culture of today is not taking enough blame here. Let’s be real, it can be kind of fun to dream about where different players could move. Imagining these scenarios is part of the fun for basketball fans… but by 2022, it’s gone too far. We often forget the product that is actually on the floor. More specifically, we forget that championship teams don’t just happen immediately.

If there’s one thing to take away from this interview about Petra, it’s that she’s determined to use her own journey to help others. 

People working together are always more powerful than any individual or institution.

Baseball needs a culture change to adapt to the fast times we live in. And that’s why, unfortunately, the news that MLB might lose a handful of games in the beginning of one season isn’t all that newsworthy.

Sports legends only come once in a blue moon, which is why the probability of two unique talents coming from the same bloodline is slim. This, however, does not stop most from trying to live up to their lineage. 

These days, collegiate sports is a multi-million dollar business and it is no secret that the athletes have long been exploited commodities.

Kevin Durant does not deserve enough credit for how he’s handled himself over the past three years.

Why were the 2022 Olympic hosts allowed to mask genocide?

JRZY is the only network where athletes can find sponsors but still find other ways to generate revenue and PR about themselves. The umbrella of services that the JRZYverse provides is exactly what 99% of athletes are looking for. 

The owner of the Cincinnati Bengals, has been one of the cheapest owners in the league and now with Joe Burrow, JaMarr Chase, and a bazillion dollars in cap space the question remains, will Mike Brown make it count?

The NCAA stands to lose billions unless they stop athletes before they use the same lessons learned toppling NIL restrictions to force revenue sharing.

Inexperienced bettors might get into trouble if they don’t know what they’re doing. The Super Bowl is probably the biggest opportunity for this to happen, so here is a quick guide about the basics of gambling if you’re an inexperienced bettor looking to have a little fun this Sunday.

I’m rooting for the Rams, because there’s one thing that I love more than a team like the Bengals winning: A team pushing all their chips into the middle. 

In the NHL, the teams are allowed to eat up to half of the salary of a player whom they are trading. Why doesn’t the NBA do this?

Think about all the people you’ve met from playing pickup, gaming, tailgating, bowling, rec leagues, etc. Those connections were made by sport.

An online community for athletes around the world to own their brand across money, media, and marketplace technology. The three pillars of the JRZYverse are JRZYapp, JRZYmag, and a third pillar (JRZYxxxx) that will be launched in the near future.

Instead of allowing the riches they generate to be siphoned off, decentralization could pump billions of dollars back into the hands of athletes, their communities, and their causes. 

The system needs to be changed if we don’t want fans like myself rooting against game-winning field goals.

In the competitive world of professional and amateur sports where the rewards are profitable and victory is considered the only success, many collegiate athletes are under immense pressure to win by any means necessary.

Women athletes already struggle with decent pay and exposure compared to their male counterparts, the least we could do is let them talk their shit and celebrate as they please. 

According to 18 U.S. Code § 224 - Bribery in sporting contests, yes it is.

When JRZY passed the milestone of our first 1,000 users and 31 straight weeks of growth, it validated many ideas, inspired more, created a community of advocates, and let us know we were on to something special.

The NFL has a systemic problem that requires a systemic solution. “Better than nothing” doesn’t solve that. 

To offer a known former rival team MVP a spot on your team is not necessarily a rarity, but when that player played a significant role in a cheating scandal that shook the MLB and may have caused you one less ring on your finger, it’s pretty damn questionable. 

At JRZY, we’re having different writers tell you about why and how they find inspiration from Tommie Smith and John Carlos. As a refresher, these two sprinters raised their fists at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City on the winners’ podium to protest the racial unrest that was happening at the time.

No matter who wins the lottery to fight Alvarez next, it’s undeniable he’ll face criticism regardless, as boxing fans are one of the hardest fan bases to please.

Boxing purists must also acknowledge the problems within boxing were plenty before Youtubers began merging into the sport. Corruption, incompetent judging, promotional gatekeeping amongst other issues should be addressed first before blaming Youtube boxing for “ruining” the sport.

Early on, we knew we could help athletes by also supporting the teams and organizations they belonged to as well.

Are sponsorships still part of JRZY? YES!

The act of using PED’s in a league that didn’t care about PED’s at the time shouldn’t keep someone out of that very league’s Hall of Fame.

The L.A. area already lost the 2021 Rose Bowl last year to AT&T Stadium – let’s be happy that they didn’t lose Super Bowl LVI as well.

If athletes adopted affordable and clean energy objectives as a major campaign using their influence and platforms, it would immediately become mainstream

GenZ to us represents the future All Stars, MVPs and everyday athletes that will drive change on the court and in our communities.

JRZY; jersey, /ˈjərzē/ : noun - a distinctive shirt worn by a player or competitor in sports.

The CFB playoff schedule is set through 2026, but the NCAA would be smart to avoid NYE altogether after those dates. 

While the first ever Week 18 of the NFL season provided for some fantastic drama and an extra week of football for us fans, it also must be questioned whether or not the extra week of football was worth it to the players actually doing the work on the field.

Which teams will go all in in the next two-to-three years? If Mike Brown is serious about spending money and winning a Super Bowl, the Bengals will.

It’s already a league that has to lean heavily on revenue sharing because there’s a big divide between the Haves and the Have Nots. Let’s not create two more Have Nots just yet.

If this one-year experiment gets adopted, will more and more coaches have one eye on another job and one foot out the door before the regular season ends?

A name change, Web3, and all the exciting things we're tackling this year.

It hasn't always been a societal norm to show restraint when interpreting the actions of people with a history of abhorrent behavior which allows us to easily jump to conclusions. We're starting to see compassion and empathy for the mental state that almost undoubtedly is a contributing factor.

If just about everyone who is draft-eligible (and even some who aren’t) decide to skip these games due to pre-draft injury concerns or Covid concerns, will fans continue to tune in?

It’s no secret that sneaker wars dominate a large part of NBA culture, but Puma hasn’t been seen as a major player in the NBA just yet.

Remember, even top-level pro athletes have had lingering effects of covid even after they’ve beaten it, especially in terms of endurance. Don’t get mad at yourself. The most important part of being an athlete is your mindset, not the numbers you put up on any given day. Especially on a day just after your badass body has beaten a plague. 

We can clearly see the connection for sport to be a vehicle to provide the access to clean water and sanitation for the global community.

Next time that you think that it’s crazy how young kids are when they start to be treated as athletic commodities, remember that this is not limited to just AAU or America... It's Global.

Steph Curry is finding new ways to flex on the league. Is this going to be his best season yet?

By today’s standards we can see that too many schools and athletes didn’t just pay an unfair price for the NCAA’s archaic rules – they paid a price that they shouldn’t have paid at all. Give Reggie Bush his Heisman back.

While Jersey Sponsor grew by over 600% in Q3, bringing hope to those who are often overlooked and empowering them in the process is one of our greatest accomplishments. We hope to continue powering the trend of HBCU athletics & NIL rights being leveraged in new ways in the future.

It has become official that the NHL and the NHLPA have agreed not to go to China for the Winter Olympics. All over the internet, you’ll find an explanation of reasons as to why the players aren’t going. But here’s the bigger question: What does this mean for hockey at the Olympics going forward?

Has this year long transformation from Jake Paul been a completely fake stunt for money or has he unleashed his hidden talent?

Ask the Atlanta Falcons about their 28-3 lead at the Super Bowl or the Golden State Warriors about their 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals. As sweet as victory is, the pain of losing after being so close is excruciating. When victory is within our reach we push harder and finish the job. 

Last week, it was announced that the Arizona Coyotes were facing a lockout of their own arena by the local city government in Glendale, Arizona for not paying their bills to the city.

With a title run being a realistic objective for the Nets this season, is this just a business decision or is it more of a sign of the overall outlook of COVID-19 and its variants?

If people are going to connect with a player’s message – or care about any message that they see publicly enough to take an action – it helps them to see it more than once.

With countless ways for us to easily invest our money including startups, crypto, apps, we're starting to see athlete venture capitalist funds trending upwards.
