Ferguson's Formula

The Harvard Business Review did a study on Sir Alex Ferguson and how he maintained his success at the very top level. The case study was developed by professor Anita Elberse in 2012, and she recently had Sir Alex comment on her observations. It's a very nice read, definitely worth the time.

Under the cut, a nice summary by /u/weddywhat posted to the /r/soccer thread.

Evolution of End Zone Dancing

This is hilarious. I can't decide if it bothers me or if it's actually better that Jimmy didn't do the "Bye Bye Bye" dance exactly right. Even better news:

It's official! For the rest of September, we'll be doing #TimberlakeTuesdays with brand new @JTimberlake sketches each week! #LNJF

The afterglow

That brief *NSYNC reunion that happened over a week ago? It still brings me joy to this day. I still watch their performance regularly. I watch it so often that I now expect "Gone" when I hear the intro to "Pusher Love Girl."

Not only was the performance itself amazing, the aftermath was a great part. The guys did a few radio interviews within the next few days, and it felt like they were doing a media tour for a new album.

A quick rundown on the guys' radio tour: Lance cleared things up on his own radio show, SiriusXM's Dirty Pop Live. Chris called in to his friend's show, XL1067 Johnny's House. JC did quite a few, to talk about the reunion and to promote his girl group Girl Radical. Justin went on a whole day (or two?) of radio interviews, answering pretty much the same questions.
