Welcome to the impact podcast, Peter. Peter Feigin, president of the Milwaukee Bucks in Wisconsin, was interviewed by a reporter from NBC affiliate TMJ4 News in his car outside of the team's Fiserv Forum after the Bucks were confirmed . Ive never seen less arguing in a serious pickup game, said Adam Keefe, a former N.B.A. While previous owner Herb Kohl, the five-term U.S. senator from Wisconsin, stood in high regard in Milwaukee, the franchise had begun to slip. John: It looks amazing. The arena was, if the arena didnt happen, nothing happens, and that was a public-private. Peter Feigin: That's right. Unfortunately, I probably haven't changed mentally or emotionally since we met, but she's my teammate. power forward, who lives in Southern California but joins The Run whenever he travels to New York for his job in finance. Enjoy the chicken tenders. We've developed about 75% of it and people are living here, working here, and playing. While Feigin can watch Antetokounmpo and the Bucks any time he wants on NBA 2K or social media -- "The truth is our digital channels are ten times like what our local broadcasts are," he says -- he has the distinct pleasure in Milwaukee of actually getting to catch the action in person. These are special socks, so you bring me back a pair of socks. But if Woodhouse had any qualms about digging in on defense against various titans of industry, he quickly learned that everyone was competitive. The people part is always tough. I really think its kind of a cycle of selflessness and kind of best practices. Woodhouse had no idea what to expect. "I have a 14-year-old boy who can basically tell me every single player in the NBA, as well as G-League, what Europeans are playing all through NBA 2K," Feigin says. I know you love gear more than anybody. We were together in high school. By Gabe Friedman October 2, 2017 2:58 pm. Peter Feigin: I mean, just different ways, we started to think about doing this. Ive been really lucky. The most meaningful thing that you can never take for granted is we gave about 850 part-time workers rings to get done. So, we stopped having basketball games and we stopped having concerts and we stopped. But while it is nice to connect, Kearns described the calls as artificial sweetener. It is not the same. Whether it was in sports or somewhere else Id probably look to lead an opportunity for a turnaround or a startup. The Bucks are currently in position to make the playoffs for the second straight year and third time in four years since Feigin and friends took over. Defenders are responsible for calling fouls. That automatically and having him sign for the next five years, that gives you this springboard that we think. Its rotating cast includes bankers, lawyers and high-powered television executives. Talk about that. I think COVID, like everything, slowed us up for about a year, but we're back on it. Youve collected all this human capital, both starting and back up. We built an infrastructure, to our owners' credit on, they made it really simple. I think that was a necessity. The Run also often doubles as a day care. Giannis Antetokounmpo is the gift that keeps on giving for Bucks' management. And I really do think like so powerful and so great, because it really accelerated the chipping away of this systematic racism, if nothing else, brought it to the forefront and the top of discussion in mind. John: That is a big deal. You talked about the head of human capital, and obviously Im proud to say, and Im only saying this with love, youre a native New Yorker like I am and were people, people. Michael Red: Hey, everybody, this is Michael Red and welcome to the Betting on Yourself Podcast, where I interview successful entrepreneurs, athletes, and other top performers who rose to the top, took success into their own hands and bet on themselves. Whos got next? Lee said. I think engagement and investment in the community and social responsibility is like a big deal. He's not the smartest guy in the world, but he'll certainly know the business and he'll help you out beyond your hedge fund guys and your data guys.". And kudos to you guys for being cognizant of that. We were sitting brainstorming like, how do we keep people employed? Talk about the special, the specialness of how you were involved with designing the championship ring, because theres a lot of thought that you guys put into that ring. I think one of the big skills is, I definitely do not know the answer to everything and if youre able to Basically I do think I can solve anything. When Lee was shooting his film The Best Man, he brought the actors Taye Diggs and Morris Chestnut to the gym. And more importantly, kind of like building such a strong infrastructure with other people. It all starts with the answer, right? John: Like you said, the smartest people could take the most complex issues and just make them simple. John: He was gone. If you have a partner in life, they'd better be a teammate. Im like, we actually, might have a chance to get this done and to make a long story short, and unfortunately my twin brother thinks like I owe him a commission, for. How do you get people who care? I wander around the house, Feigin said in a recent telephone interview. Peter Feigin: And I think I kind of have this delusion that there's nothing that I can be a part of, that we can't accomplish. Peter Feigin: So, we saw this as the opportunity of, "Oh my goodness. The world is incredible. So, these guys are thrown into a world where they're responsible for everything, they assume they know everything, and what their experience is. Well, you got to be beyond on top of your game. "Can you imagine? How do you care about it, and Jon Horst is so great on the basketball side.

We're talking about localizing all of our social, so in every language you can imagine to absorb it from us, so we can tell the story. Before we get talking about all the amazing things you've done in basketball, and just coming off amazing championship. It's like how it affected the players because that almost helped accelerate the importance of it. But this is literally a business based on humans and psychology and emotion and how we feel every day. I literally said, "Hey, Giannis, do me a favor. And I think we find it like it's a responsibility where we can set the example and we can innovate and then we can shout it from the mountaintops. His is a story of grit, will, and great humor. You can imagine, yes, Id rather be in Miami for 180 days, no question. And one of the incredible things that Milwaukee did not have was kind of a meeting place. There is an honor system. Youve got Wes Edens who has probably started up dozens of companies in private equity and has an unbelievable kind of entrepreneurial spirit. Thats a good run. Social media has created an avenue to spread the Bucks' brand beyond Milwaukee and the United States. Peter: Yeah, it is a combination of both because you really, I had a real rare opportunity to get out of sports and work outside of the sports industry for wealth. Be sure and try our new SNOWCAST APP! Some guys I went to high school with some guys who played college, and I leaked it at the opportunity at that game on a Saturday morning and everybody went absolutely nuts because for better or worse, Im kind of being your average guy, you do not think Peter Fiegins going to have the opportunity to become an NBA president to do it and these jobs are so rare and so incredible. Peter: professionalized on a revenue basis, so yeah. Peter Feigin: Yeah, so those are two great questions. Weve had Giannis invest in the brewers, which is like. Now, you had private equity partners.

We have the DNA and the strength and this caliber of championship caliber team to really be attractive to the world. Peter Feigin: Well, I think, like you talked about the opportunity for a great historic organization like this to embrace a former Olympian, it's all-star, like a person who's current in the game and really is an asset. And because Blake was in our backyard, like literally in Kenosha, which as you know is so close, it became personal. Let me just throw this out there.

I think it starts with human capital, but it really starts with road mapping out each little thing. Do we want this guy to keep playing? Talk about that, Peter.

John: Your mom was part of the George Lois generation and Jerry Della Femina and then Donny Deutschs father David Deutsch. And I know you had a background in marketing and you worked with the Knicks at certain points in your career. Its not really in a place where I could tell you, like, hey, heres our growth potential.
