About

People think it means “Black Sports” that actually isn’t the case. It has a secret triple meaning.

BLACK: I wanted people to know I was black; there was nothing to be ashamed of. I also saw the site as the opposite of the norm. The opposite of white is black. The villain wears the black hat. We didn’t have to be politically correct. We were going to tell the truth in a professional manner. We were going to force the mainstream media take us seriously even if they liked it or not. The way we were going to do that was to outwork them.

SPORTS: The problem I had seen on all the other black owned websites was that they didn’t cover all sports. I have a journalism degree from The Ohio State University. I always wanted to be a sports journalist, when I was a kid I would stay up to watch Indy 500 on tape delay. There was no sport I didn’t have some at least some knowledge of. We set out to be the first black owned site that was going to operate like a mainstream media site.

ONLINE: I had been building websites, studying online trends, using alternative ways of promotion as early as 1998. I was always going to stay on top of the game in regard to how to use internet to help me achieve my goals.
