SBD/SBJ Reader Survey: The Results Are In

SportsBusiness Daily/SportsBusiness Journal this week roll out the results of our third annual reader survey. Participation reached an all-time high this year, and you - our readers - see some challenges for the industry but generally believe it is heading in the right direction. In today's issue, we focus on media and sponsorship, with ABC/ESPN's George Bodenheimer reclaiming his status as the most effective TV network sports exec, and Nike repeating as the corporate partner you would most want to partner with.  More categories will be presented each day this week, and full results run in this week's issue of SBJ.
