The Day My Boss Met Marissa
In 2013, my pals at Yahoo Sports, NBC Sports HQ and the team at CSN Bay Area launched "Yahoo SportsTalk Live", the first ever socially driven television program.
We held a big ole' launch party at Yahoo headquarters in Sunnyvale, and invited their entire staff who watched the first ever live show. 49ers great Vernon Davis and former Warriors player Harrison Barnes were just two of the superstars who joined the party. The partnership was lauded as first of its' kind, an-hour long television show featuring the search portal's array of writers and CSN"s portfolio of personalities, celebrities and athletes.
I've never seen Ted so professional. I think he was holding his breath in this picture.
