The Colts head to Miami with a 16-2 record, barely ahead of the Saints, who are 15-3. It's the first time since 1993 that the top two seeds are meeting for the championship. “These guys have had incredible years, both teams deserve to be here, have earned it,” says former Miami Dolphins quarterback and CBS Sports analyst Dan Marino. “It’s an outstanding offensive football game. I think when you look at both teams their defenses don’t get as much credit as they should because they have played well all year, but at the same time, the draw is the points scored and A look back at the "King of Pop" Michael the quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Drew Brees.” Jackson's superstar career. While the star quarterbacks will certainly draw fans to the game on Sunday, the stories on either side of the match up are also expected to attract viewers.

  • Do the Upfronts Still Matter? by Steve Sternberg
    May 2021 #107 __________________________________________________________________________________________ _____ Do the Upfronts Still Matter? By Steve Sternberg For American television viewers, the start of the new primetime network television season is still four months away. For insiders at media agencies, networks, and advertisers (as well as television analysts like me), the upfront season has placed thoughts of September squarely into May and June. The major media companies just announced their respective fall TV schedules in a series of presentations to the advertising industry. This marks the start of the “upfront,” when advertisers spend upward of $20 billion buying commercial time on national television programs scheduled to air during the next broadcast year (September-August). The once highly anticipated “upfront week” has become a much more subdued affair. Because of the pandemic, this is the second year in a row of virtual presentations, which simply don’t have the same cachet as live events at Radio City, Carnegie Hall, or Lincoln Center, and the subsequent celebrity- filled after-parties. There also used to be a fair amount of anticipation among the general public. After the upfront schedule announcements, pundits would proliferate on syndicated entertainment magazine shows, and in print magazines, and newspapers, throughout the summer talking about the new fall TV shows. Online chatter and buzz would ensue. There used to be little else happening in A Sternberg Report Sponsored Message If you can see this, so can thousands of other advertising and media professionals and decision makers. To advertise here, contact [email protected] The Sternberg Report ©2021 __________________________________________________________________________________________ _____ the TV arena, and aside from the latest theatrical release, the upcoming new fall season was the only big entertainment news.
