Dave, I have been following your picks for a couple of months now and am very impressed. You pick strong fundamental companies and do thorough due diligence (unlike many other fly by nighters on SI) and it is just a matter of time with most of your companies. That is the same question here and I feel that, like SYCD and perhaps even more so, it is just a matter of getting the story out. This stock hardly trades, even on big news like the other day. I think a name change would help the company enormously, but even without that, I was wondering what Helmut might have said in terms of gaining exposure. For example, you hear and see CBS Sportsline (another stock I used to own and did quite well with) promoted constantly on every sporting event on CBS. The NCAA tournament will drive enormous traffic to that site as the Indy could do for the Global Sports Network. But I fear that the company won't even be mentioned tomorrow. What do you think?

It's not my call to make. The CEO has the inside story and he will know what is best for the company. This is a highly competitive area and I believe setting up a new sports network will be a very expensive proposition and met with a lot of opposition from established players. It would be an easier road to form an alliance or merge. On the other hand, if the vision is there to create a better mouse-trap and the necessary financial/power-broker forces are behind it perhaps they have a chance. But it will not be without a good deal of struggle. Anything brought new to the market is always up against the unknown factors that determine it's success; e.g. how the market perceives the product, how much revenue is needed to support it, sell it, etc. Time will tell. But I like the uniqueness of their telemetry and feel they have a fighting chance to become something special either way.
