INNOVATION IN ACTION
BRINGING FOOTBALL TO INTERNATIONAL MARKETS
On the heels of the Super Bowl, the National Football League is already looking to get fans from all across the globe excited for next season. The NFL announced Munich, Germany will host the country's first-ever regular-season game next season. The Germany game will be one of five international games next season along with three in England and one in Mexico. Earlier this season the league announced numerous new marketing rights for teams across international markets. The league is constantly looking to develop new revenue streams and reach new audiences across the globe to grow the game of football. This game with host Bayern Munich could be the start of a dynamic partnership between the NFL and the Bundesliga.

RENEWING RIVALRIES AND SETTING RECORDS
US Women's Hockey star, Hilary Knight, joined an elite club alongside Team USA legends Jenny Potter and Angela Ruggiero as the only women to play in 21 Olympic hockey games for the United States. Knight will break the record Wednesday night (2/16) at 11:10pm ET when Team USA takes on Canada in the gold medal game in Beijing. The latest chapter in one of the biggest rivalries in sports will once again determine who stands atop the podium and hears their national anthem with gold around their necks.
