"Going Off The Grid" is a weekly survey of sports execs and personalities offering their thoughts on a handful of pressing (and trivial) issues in sports and pop culture. This week, our panelists discuss whether MLB should make a deadline for signing free agents and what their best athletic achievement was.
- Vikings Exec Dir of Digital & Innovation Scott Kegley
-- If he had to listen to only one album for the rest of his life it would be "Garth Brooks: The Ultimate Hits."
- Turner Ignite Sports Senior VP/Partnerships Seth Cole
-- His next career move might be becoming a Bosun on Bravo's show "Below Deck."
- Sports Marketing Consultants Founder/CEO Andrew Campagnone
-- Has been told he looks like Tom Cruise and Richard Gere.
- USTA Dir of Business Operations Elizabeth Diaz
-- HBO's documentary "Defiant Ones" changed her loyalty from Bose to Beats.
