I graduate with a bachelor’s degree next week    You give the same exact advice I’d give to anyone else in communications, entertainment, or management.

Awesome! Good luck! I'm two years into my degree (halfway done). I've had a blast so far. I've been able to cover some cool events like the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament (sat front row). My tip: do

That's a fair point. I think it's something I would love to do once or twice, but after that, I'll sit on the couch for 16 straight days and watch all the events, so I don't miss anything.

Does anyone here plan on attending the LA 2028 games?

Ideally, I’d like to work them if I’m in the LA Metro Area. I made it to the last round of interviews for an internship position, but I wasn’t choosen.

Sorry to hear that. What kind of internship position was it for?

Gotcha. I'm sure there will be other positions as 2028 gets closer. I was actually scrolling through their careers page on the LA28 website the other day. My dream scenario would be to cover to cover LA28 for a news outlet. I am pursuing a Journalism degree right now. If I can't cover it, I would ideally be there as a fan.

I’m happy working either side of the communications industry. I think I prefer journalism a little more to marketing/PR, but my field of study (and soon to be degree) is in public relations.

I've never really looked into the marketing/PR side of the industry. I think marketing would be really interesting, especially after the poor marketing that FIFA displayed last night for the 2026 World Cup logo.

Wow we are similar. I am pursuing a degree in Mass Communications (Journalism focus) starting in the fall and would absolutely love working at LA28.

 

I am more interested in the broadcasting side but also do work with newspaper (online and print) reporting.

      Of the top teams the world with traditions, only Portugal didn`t play in 3 World Cups in a row: 1986-2002 (1990, 1994 and 1998), but then fewer teams played in the World Cup than now. I don't really remember what caused the crisis in Portuguese football in the 1990s or how it was done with this later? Perhaps we should follow their example?

      Well... If not qualifying for the World Cup for the third consecutive time isn't enough to bring about change in Italy, I can't imagine what will be.

      Gravina is simply stupid and probably has some kind of hold over other important key figures in Italian football, since he was elected in 2024 with a majority of over 90% of the votes... I have a hard time imagining it any other way. Compared to him, even Carraro, Berlusconi and Moggi seem like nice and kind gentlemens   Some people believe that Calciopoli in 2006 began the decline of Italian football and that may be true. It only got worse from there, not counting a single accidental Euro 2021 win- something similar to Greece in 2004. In 2009 Roberto Baggio prepared a 900-page report on necessary reforms in Italian football, but the then-FIGC board tossed it into the trash bin. Now we see the consequences...

      I thought our former football President was greedy, selfish, power hungry and delusional, but apparently he has an equal counterpart in Gravina. Some people just lack common decency.

      Well, it's possible that Italians may be more bitter towards short track officials after the robbery they perpetrated against Sighel at the Olympics and therefore more willing to comment and criticize them, but it doesn't make the decision any less ridiculous.   Also, the fact we are Italians, and therefore used to the low standards of football refereeing, makes us especially qualified and trained to identify biased/crooked/incompetent judging

      I think it was never in the history of our sport has there been anyone as brazen and stupid as Gravina. Before presidents would resign, or at least hide for a while, rather than go into a full-blow scandalous attitude with full larrogance and pride. I hope this idiot gets fired anyway, even if he doesn't resign.
