Unser heutiger Gast hatte in seinem Leben schon mehrfach ein gutes Timing. Nach seinem Studium an der WAK Köln war er Marketingleiter bei “Eastpack”. Er war danach bei der Hamburger Werbeagentur “Jung von Matt” und hat damals in einem sehr coolen Team, die wiederbelebte Marke Mini kommunikativ in die Köpfe der Menschen zurück geholt. Mit “ALKR” hatte er auch mal eine eigene Smoothie Marke, als die meisten Menschen in Deutschland noch nicht einmal wussten, was das ist. Er war danach Brand Director Europe bei “Dickies” einer Marke für Arbeitskleidung, auch die war nach seiner Zeit cooler, als vorher. Mit der Gründung von Swipe im Jahr 2010, einer sehr kreativen Boutique Agentur für Apps, bewies er zusammen mit einem Partner wieder einmal seinen guten Instinkt für den Zeitgeist. Diese Agentur brachte er dann bei SinnerSchrader ein und er begleitete dort als Managing Director das Wachstum einer der besten Digital Agenturen in Deutschland und deren Integration in die Accenture Gruppe. Heute gehört er als Berater, als Podcaster mit dem Format “Unwordy” und als Leiter des NFT Studios bei “Highsnobiety” wieder einmal zu den Vordenkern seiner Generation und genau deswegen wollen wir von ihm heute hören, wie es weitergeht bei den vielen spannenden Themen, die gerade vor uns liegen. Vor allem ganz egoistisch als Content Creator die Frage: welche Möglichkeiten haben wir mit dem Dezentralen internet und NFTs in Zukunft?! Seit 5 Jahren beschäftigen wir uns nun schon mit der Frage, wie Arbeit den Menschen stärkt - statt ihn zu schwächen. Wie kann ein Thema, das einen so wesentlichen Anteil in unserem Alltag einnimmt, wieder mehr Sinn in unserem Leben stiften? Wie können wir die bahnbrechenden Technologien, die derzeit entwickelt werden nutzen, um unsere Art zu arbeiten, neu zu erfinden und welche Möglichkeiten kann dabei die Idee eines dezentralisierten Web3 spielen. Wir suchen nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näher bringen! Und darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns auch diese Woche wieder die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich, wirklich wollen.

Golf – Champions – Alker shoots 63 and rallies to win Senior PGA for 1st major Steven Alker is on a roll and now has his first senior major. Alker rallied from four shots behind with a 63 to win the Senior PGA Championship. That’s his third victory this year on the PGA Tour Champions and his first major. The 50-year-old from New Zealand was part of a three-way tie involving Stephen Ames and Bernhard Langer. They all made bogeys at some point on the back nine. Alker made a pair of key birdies that allowed him to take control. The win gets Alker into his first PGA Championship next year at Oak Hill. MLB – Major League Baseball Last Night Detroit Tigers 7, Minnesota Twins 5 Milwaukee Brewers 7, Chicago Cubs 6 – Game 1 Milwaukee Brewers 3, Chicago Cubs 1 – Game 2 White Sox were off Tigers 7, Twins 5 – Schoop 3rd from Curaçao with 1,000 hits, Tigers top Twins Jonathan Schoop became the third player from Curaçao with 1,000 major league hits and finished a home run shy of the cycle, helping the Detroit Tigers beat the Minnesota Twins 7-5 in the opener of a five-game series. Schoop, a 30-year-old infielder in his 10th big league season, singled in the third inning, doubled in the fifth for his 1,000th hit and tripled leading off the seventh as part of a 3-for-5 afternoon that lifted his average from .173 to .185.

A third round pick in the 2018 amateur draft, Clemens was hitting .283 at Toledo with eight homers and 31 RBIs in 45 games.

The Office of Inspector General found that two former agents likely provided “inaccurate or incomplete information” when investigators subsequently tried to understand what happened.

The Office of Inspector General found that two former agents likely provided “inaccurate or incomplete information” when investigators subsequently tried to understand what happened.

Golf – Senior PGA – Steven Alker, Bob Estes share Senior PGA lead at 64 On a day when birdies were flying around Harbor Shores in the first round of the Senior PGA Championship, Steven Alker began soaring with an eagle. The 50-year-old New Zealander, who already has won twice and leads the PGA Tour Champions money list with almost $1.2 million, started his round with a 25-foot downhill eagle putt on the 539-yard, par-5 10th hole after a 240-yard approach with a 5-wood. He then finished his afternoon round with his sixth birdie of the day to shoot a 7-under 64, which was tied late in the day by 56-year-old Bob Estes. Alker and Estes were a stroke ahead of Paul Claxton and Mike Weir after the first round at the Jack Nicklaus-design course on Lake Michigan.

Hill told teams to comply with MLB regulations “as soon as possible.” San Francisco Giants assistant coach Alyssa Nakken this year became the first woman to work as an on-field coach for a big league team.

MLB – Major League Baseball Last Night Los Angeles Dodgers 6, Detroit Tigers 3 Los Angeles Angels 6, Chicago White Sox 5 Chicago Cubs 2, Milwaukee Brewers 0 Dodgers 6, Tigers 3 – Dodgers beat Tigers 6-3; Cabrera hits 503rd homer Walker Buehler pitched five scoreless innings and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Detroit Tigers 6-3 and overcame Miguel Cabrera’s 503rd career home run and his first this season. Cabrera hit a two-run homer off reliever Phil Bickford in the eighth inning to help the Tigers avoid the shutout. Cabrera got his 3,000th career hit last week and on Sunday tied George Brett for 18th in major league history with 1,119 extra-base hits. Buehler scattered six hits and struck out five and walked one. Tigers starter Eduardo Rodriguez allowed eight hits and gave up six runs, four earned, in 5 2/3 innings. Angels 6, White Sox 5 – Trout HR, Lorenzen, Angels hold off Chisox; DH Ohtani exits Mike Trout homered, doubled and scored three runs, Michael Lorenzen pitched into the ninth inning and the Los Angeles Angels held off the Chicago White Sox 6-5 for their seventh win in eight games. Shohei Ohtani had an RBI as the Angels’ designated hitter. The two-way AL MVP went 0 for 3 and exited in the ninth inning because of tightness in his right groin. Lorenzen took a 6-0 lead and a bid for his first career complete game into the ninth before the White Sox scored five times in a wild finish. Ryan Tepera, the Angels’ third pitcher of the inning, retired Gavin Sheets on a bases-loaded grounder for the final out. Chicago has lost 11 of 13. Cubs 2, Brewers 0 – Stroman outpitches Burnes, Cubs beat Brewers to avoid sweep Marcus Stroman threw two-hit ball for seven innings, outpitching Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes and leading the Chicago Cubs over the Milwaukee Brewers 2-0. Patrick Wisdom homered as the Cubs ended a four-game losing streak. They had been outscored 20-2 in dropping the first two games of the series at Milwaukee. Stroman earned his first win for his new team in his fifth start. Pitching on his 31st birthday, he struck out five and walked one. Burnes struck out 10 in seven innings, giving up four hits. He retired the first 13 batters before Wisdom homered in the fifth. Today L.A. Angels (Sandoval 1-0) at Chicago White Sox (Cease 2-1), 2:10 p.m. Tigers and Cubs are off MLB – Batting average dips slightly, power way down across MLB The Major League Baseball batting average this April was a lousy .231, once again on pace to fall under the record low of .237 set in The Year of the Pitcher in 1968. After several years of surging home run totals, batters are slugging a measly .369 and averaging 4.03 runs per game, both lows for baseball since the strike-altered 1981 season. Ripple effects from labor strife are a suspect in this year’s offensive downturn. So, too, is the baseball, of course, along with caveats about cold weather and small samples. There’s one area of universal agreement, and it’s that pitching has become exceptionally good.

Detroit missed the playoffs in each of the past six seasons. General manager Steve Yzerman said the team was not renewing the contracts of Blashill, assistant Doug Houda and goaltending coach Jeff Salajko. The Red Wings have not made the playoffs since Blashill’s first season in 2015-16 when they lost in the first round. Blashill was the head coach at Western Michigan and had been with the Red Wings for 11 years with a stint as head coach in Grand Rapids, where he led the Griffins to the 2013 Calder Cup Championship. He was also an assistant on Mike Babcock’s staff. He had been tabbed by Detroit’s previous regime to guide the storied organization through a rebuild. NFL – St. Joe’s French signs with Colts Former St. Joe Bear and Western Michigan University Bronco Wesley French has signed as an undrafted free agent with the Indianapolis Colts. French played and started at center for Western Michigan University, where the Broncos finished the 2021 regular season at 8-5, 4-4 in the Mid American Conference. Before that the 6’5’ 310 pound offensive lineman played under the Friday Night Lights of Dickinson Stadium in St. Joe for then head coach Gandalf Church. French graduated from St. Joe in 2015. He sat out the Broncos 2015 season earning a red shirt. He suited up for 4 games in the 2016 season, including the Cotton Bowl. He missed the 2019 season after being injured in fall camp. NFL – Former Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles gets released by Bears The Chicago Bears have released veteran quarterback Nick Foles two years after acquiring the former Super Bowl MVP to compete with Mitchell Trubisky. New general manager Ryan Poles had told reporters he hoped to trade Foles after signing Trevor Siemian to back up Justin Fields. He had one year left on his contract. Foles took Super Bowl 52 honors for Philadelphia. The Bears acquired him from Jacksonville in March 2020. Foles was third string last year behind Fields and Andy Dalton. He started one game with the other two quarterbacks injured, and threw for 250 yards in a win at Seattle in late December. Golf – PGA – Rahm hangs on to win Mexico Open for 1st win since US Open Jon Rahm is a winner again and it wasn’t easy. Rahm has won the Mexico Open with a 69 in the final round at Vidanta Vallarta. The Spaniard now has 14 wins worldwide and seven on the PGA Tour. He says he could have done without the stress. Rahm never fell behind. But after he missed an easy birdie conversion on the par-5 12th, he suddenly found himself in a four-way tie for the lead. Brandon Wu shot 63. So did Tony Finau. Kurt Kitayama joined them. But then Rahm birdied the 14th, and he held on with pars. Golf – Champions – Alker emerges from rain for 4-shot win on Champions Tour Steven Alker is now the man to beat on the PGA Tour Champions. One week after he threw away a chance to win, Alker shot 66 on Sunday for a four-shot victory in the Insperity Invitational. The final round was delayed two hours by rain. Alker was leading by one shot over Steve Stricker. After the rain, Alker played a six-hole stretch in 6-under par to build a four-shot lead. It was Alker’s second win this year and he now leads the Charles Schwab Cup. Golf – LPGA – Marina Alex wins LPGA Tour’s Palos Verdes Championship Marina Alex won the Palos Verdes Championship on Sunday for her second LPGA Tour title. Alex broke a tie with a two-putt birdie on the par-5 16th and parred the final two holes for a one-stroke victory over Jin Young Ko. Three strokes behind Hannah Green entering the round, Alex closed with a 5-under 66 to finish at 10-under 274 at hilly and windy Palos Verdes Golf Club. The top-ranked Ko also shot a 66. USFL – United States Football League Last Night Michigan Panthers 24, Pittsburgh Maulers 0 (1st shutout in USFL History) Tennis – Wimbledon – Nadal, Djokovic slam Wimbledon ban on Russian players Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic say Wimbledon acted unfairly in barring Russian and Belarus players from this year’s tournament following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Prominent players affected include reigning U.S. Open champion Daniil Medvedev, Andrey Rublev and French Open runner-up Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, who are all from Russia. Nadal says the war is “not their fault.” Horse Racing – Kentucky Derby leads off Triple Crown without Bob Baffert The Kentucky Derby leads off the first Triple Crown season in decades without the chance of Bob Baffert officially winning one or more of the three races. Baffert’s absence while suspended shadows over the race particularly because two horses he trained for a significant period of time are among the top contenders. Former assistant Tim Yakteen would get the credit if Taiba or Messier wins after taking over training duties. Taiba could become the first horse since 1883 to win the Derby with two or fewer previous starts. And Taiba’s jockey, Mike Smith, is looking to become the oldest jockey to win the Derby. Olympics – Salt Lake, Sapporo head race to 2030 Olympics, and maybe ’34 The Beijing Winter Olympics closed just over two months ago and the focus now turns to awarding a host city for the 2030 Winter Games. There appears to be four candidates with Sapporo, Japan, Salt Late City, and Vancouver leading the list. Interest has also been shown by Barcelona with snow events proposed for regions in the Pyrenees. An IOC technical team was in Salt Lake last week and travels this week to Vancouver. Japanese officials are planning an “All Japan” conference next week in Sapporo led by a former prime minister. Salt Lake City hosted the winter Olympics in 2002, Vancouver hosted the Winter games in 2010. Sapporo last hosted in 1972. The Winter Games in 2026 will be Milan and Cortina, Italy.

Baffert’s absence while suspended shadows over the race particularly because two horses he trained for a significant period of time are among the top contenders. Former assistant Tim Yakteen would get the credit if Taiba or Messier wins after taking over training duties. Taiba could become the first horse since 1883 to win the Derby with two or fewer previous starts. And Taiba’s jockey, Mike Smith, is looking to become the oldest jockey to win the Derby. Olympics – Salt Lake, Sapporo head race to 2030 Olympics, and maybe ’34 The Beijing Winter Olympics closed just over two months ago and the focus now turns to awarding a host city for the 2030 Winter Games. There appears to be four candidates with Sapporo, Japan, Salt Late City, and Vancouver leading the list. Interest has also been shown by Barcelona with snow events proposed for regions in the Pyrenees. An IOC technical team was in Salt Lake last week and travels this week to Vancouver. Japanese officials are planning an “All Japan” conference next week in Sapporo led by a former prime minister. Salt Lake City hosted the winter Olympics in 2002, Vancouver hosted the Winter games in 2010. Sapporo last hosted in 1972. The Winter Games in 2026 will be Milan and Cortina, Italy.
