Getting a position is professional sports is like trying to get a straight answer from a scandal ridden politician…next to impossible.
Well, there are a few ways to get in to the industry…
1) Be related to someone who works in it
2) Have some compromising pictures of someone in a hierarchy
3) Start as an internor:
