Episode Title: The Sports Girls LLC Present The
Inside Score Featuring Alonzo Mourning, Leigh Steinberg, and Mario Chalmers!
Episode Description
The Sports Girls LLC Presents The
Inside Score debut, and we promise not to let sports-fans down. There is a saying that goes “go big or go
home” as we have decided to go over the top!
Our first edition features two elite Miami Heat athletes, Alonzo
Mourning and Mario Chalmers, along with the NFL agent credited as the real-life
inspiration for the Sports Agent Character from the film “Jerry Maguire – Lee
Steinberg.” Lee Steinberg’s wealth of
resources and experiences ensure he is frequently sought out to act as a
consultant on a variety of entertainment projects, most notably “For Love of
the Game,” “Any Given Sunday,'' and the TV series “Arliss.” The Miami Heat are currently 2X NBA World
champions chasing after that golden 3-peat. We are going to let these elite
athletes talk about their foundations, passions, and goals. Alonzo Mouring and Mario Chalmers both do so
much for their community. It’s time to hear about some of the positive stories
within the NBA.
Guest Bio Information:
Leigh Steinberg
Leigh Steinberg is widely recognized as the country’s leading sports
agent and one of the most noteworthy sports attorneys in the nation. Leigh has
represented the Number 1 pick in the NFL draft a record eight times, in
addition to representing over 60 other first round draft picks just in the NFL,
feats unheard of in today's marketplace. He may be best known as the
inspiration for the lead character in Jerry Maguire who was a sports agent. In
fact, Leigh made a cameo appearance at the end of the film. During his nearly 40
years in the industry, Steinberg has negotiated well over two billion dollars
in deals for his clients. His firm, Steinberg Sports and Entertainment,
maintains a client roster that is highlighted by some of the most high profile
names in sports, including the likes of Steve Young, Troy Aikman, Ben
Roethlisberger, Lennox Lewis, and Oscar de la Hoya. Leigh’s media appearances
include CNN, ESPN and all four major networks, as well as numerous print media
coverage.
Alonzo Mourning
Alonzo Mourning, a seven time NBA
All-Star lives by the mantra that “to whom is given, much will be required.” He
and his wife, Tracy, believe that by giving back to their community, they will
set an unshakeable foundation for generations to come. Nicknamed "Zo", Mourning played at center, and his
tenacity on defense twice earned him NBA Defensive
Player of the Year Award, and perennially placed him on the NBA
All-Defensive Team. He later won the 2006 NBA Championship with the
Miami Heat, and in 2009, Mourning became the first Heat player to have his
number retired. Alonzo Mourning carries that same tenacity over to other parts
of his life, including the development of the Mourning Family Foundation. Since
1997, the Foundation has raised
nearly 10 million dollars, with the goal to inspire others through advocacy,
education, and enrichment services to enable donors with varied interests in
children’s issues, the benefit of giving to several charities from their one
contribution.
Mario Chalmers acquired a love for
basketball at the age of 3 and quickly advanced to the real court by age 5,
playing his first organized basketball game with the Elmendorf Youth League in
Alaska. By age 12, Mario brought home is first championship trophy. With more
awards to come, Mario earned a place on the Defensive First Team for the
University of Kansas, and hitting the "Miracle Shot" solidified his
place in KU history. Shortly after the NCAA Championship win, Mario decided to
enter the NBA draft. Known for steals on the court Mario was labeled "the
steal of the draft” and was ecstatic when he became part of the Miami Heat.
Mario will be remembered for many basketball heroics, but he's reaching beyond
this by helping cancer patients. "Mario's Closet" offers low cost
accessories like wigs, cosmetics, bras and prosthetics. For men and women
fighting cancer, Mario's Closet is a comforting place that restores confidence,
dignity and hope through personalized image renewal.
