Good Morning Crossfire,
Today I actually have something interesting for my morning journal. I am off to Boston in a few hours to chair a panel on eSports at event hosted by MIT! Here is the synopsis:
"How the next global superstar will come from 10,000+ hours in front of a computer… this year’s eSports panel will examine the growing world of professional gaming. Our panelists are pioneers and innovators in the industry who each have had a different role in the growth of this sport. Perspectives from the founder of the studio that has made one of the most popular video games of all time, the visionary behind the most established network of professional gaming leagues and competitions, all the way to one of the most recognizable faces in the sport to the owner of one of the most successful teams. These experts will dive into not only where this sport has come from, but where it is going and the incredible popularity it has built from both live and online audiences and the individuals who are now essentially turning pro out of high school and not looking back as they embark down a path of global fame."

Joining me on the panel will be the CEO of Blizzard, MLG, EG and Day9. Should be very interesting and hopefully quite successful for eSports as a whole because of the list of other panelists its obscene, so many major figures from the sporting world!
Wish me luck.
