Thought for the Week

This week we looked at the value of framing messages, the opportunity for non-traditional team sports and the capitalization on a legacy of experience in the WNBA.

Sports Cause of the Week – by @sportsandchange
The Coach Knapp Memorial Fund, named in honor of veteran NFL assistant coach Greg Knapp, dedicated to educating drivers on the dangers of distracted driving, reducing the number of distracted driving-related deaths and promoting distracted driving awareness reform, was planning its busiest weekend of the year. Thursday night at MetLife Stadium, the New York Jets and Houston Texans were planning to hold this season's first joint stair climb. Before their game at Nissan Stadium against the New England Patriots, the Tennessee Titans were to join this year's participants on Sunday. The week will end on Monday, with the Boston College Eagles running the steps of Alumni Stadium in Newton when they face another Knapp Stair Climb participant, Syracuse University. Nearly half of the NFL and over a dozen NCAA teams are participating in this fall's "Coach Knapp Stair Climb," the largest number in the brief three-year history of the event. The fund, which has raised over $250,000 to date already, was created by Greg's wife, Charlotte, and close friend and agent, Jeff Sperbeck, to honor the legacy of Greg Knapp, who tragically passed away in July 2021 after being hit by a distracted driver while he was bicycling. Coach Knapp was known for climbing the stadium stairs before every NFL game he coached over his 25-season career. All will be tagged #knappstairclimb on social platforms. To learn more about getting involved, see the details here.
