I'm a basketball junkie! Love the sport. At age 65, I still play 3x a week ---- slowly!In addition to competing, I serve as a Board Member for the annual Tampa Bay Masters, the largest senior hoops event in America, and for FIMBA (Federation International Masters Basketball), the world's biggest senior hoops federation with chapters in 57 countries.My roles are to recruit players and organize teams to participate in these masters basketball events in both the USA and internationally.Personally, since 2009, I have played on USA teams in 100+ senior hoops tournaments in 20+ countries.Even penned a book about my experiences titled Old School Hoops: Stories of an Aging Baller.In addition, I created the Trademarked MIKE sports cartoon character. The witty and ever talkative MIKE has been in my DNA since birth, and I birthed MIKE to become a global sports brand that both entertains and positively impacts culture. In time, I know MIKE will be seen on television, Jumbotrons and the web. Eventually, he'll rival the popularity of other timeless animated brands like Spongebob, Bart Simpson and Mickey Mouse. But in MIKE's case, he'll be the first ever animated sports brand that transcends all sports.For any interested advertisers, MIKE should be the next GEICO gecko or Aflac duck. He's the perfect intellectual property to be a sports brand's spokesman. For more info: call me at 727-460-8932 or email me at sweeney@fimba.net
