Play by Play - the latest sports headlines and sports stock news

Point Roberts, WA - February 11, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering gaming and eSports stocks issues a special edition of Play By Play looking at the explosive growth of the sector and how battles are playing out; eSports versus traditional sports and the U.S. versus China bid for leadership.
Total eSports revenues reached US $869 million in 2018 and are expected to surpass US$6 billion by 2028, according to Fact.MR.
NewZoo estimated the global eSports audience at 380 million for 2018, made up of 165 million Esports enthusiasts and 215 million occasional viewers. Meanwhile, Activate projects that by 2021 eSports will have more US viewers than all other professional sports leagues, with the exception of the NFL.
With all this money and viewership at stake, you can expect the big boys to enter the playing field; and yes they certainly have. On July 2018, ESPN, Disney XD and Blizzard Entertainment, a division of Activision Blizzard (Nasdaq: ATVI), announced an exclusive multiyear agreement for live television coverage of the Overwatch League™, the world's first major global city-based eSports league.
Seeing the future shift in sports and eSports, Robert Kraft of the New England Patriots, Jeff Wilpon of the New York Mets and the LA Rams' Stan Kroenke invested heavily into their own franchises within Activision-Blizzard's Overwatch eSports league.
Overwatch franchise valuations are $60 million to $80 million, depending on country and city according to a Forbes article. Adding to its value, news hit on Friday that Coca-Cola signed a deal with Activision Blizzard Esports Leagues to become the official non-alcoholic beverage of Overwatch League and all other Overwatch properties.
With North America as the largest eSports market in 2018, Enthusiast Gaming (TSXV:EGLX.V) (OTCQB:EGHIF), a gaming company building the world's largest community of authentic gamers. strategically announced yesterday that it opened a US-based office and hired a sales team to drive advertising sales and increase annual revenue.
According to the news, "The US-based sales team is based in San Francisco and will be responsible for leading North American sales. This expands the company's current reach with a sales team in San Francisco, London, UK, and the corporate head office in Toronto. The company kicked off the opening of the sales office with a West Coast advertising roadshow, meeting with top gaming publishers, global brands, and media agencies."
Undaunted by the fact that they are a smaller company, Enthusiast Gaming is building their network and has positioned themselves at the forefront of the market, led by Menashe Kestenbaum, Founder and CEO. The numbers speak for themselves, with a platform of more than 80 owned and affiliated websites reaching 75 million monthly visitors and 900 YouTube channels with an additional 50 million monthly visitors.
Other major deal flow in the US; Take-Two Interactive Software's deal with the NBA and Electronic Arts Inc.'s partnerships with the NFL and ESPN. The massive streaming player growth on YouTube and Amazon is yet another indication this industry is not going away anytime soon.
The China eSports market is second to the United States and according to Dragon Social "Live streaming, combined with video games has become one of the most popular forms of entertainment for people in China."
China-based Tencent Holdings Ltd (OTCMKTS:TCEHY,HKG:0700) is the biggest gaming company in the world, spending $150 million a year to maintain that dominance. Bloomberg noted, "Along with Activision Blizzard Inc., Tencent's become one of the most aggressive promoters of pro-gaming. It's hard to overstate the mania that's gripped China in particular: at least 10,000 teams exist across the country despite just 12 spots in this year's marquee King Pro League tournament."
Streaming video player Huya (NYSE:HUYA) provides a live-streaming platform for gamers to share their experiences and has been dubbed, the ‘Twitch of China' and says they are the largest in China. Reporting on its NYSE IPO, Forbes said, "HUYA is known for its sticky gaming community who engage in interactive social media features such as gifting and adding commentary during online streaming sessions."
US company Twitch is a live streaming video platform bought by Amazon in 2014 for $970 million. Twitch viewers between Wednesday, 30th January and Tuesday, 5th February: lowest viewers 625,376 (Monday, 4th 09:00) and peak viewers 2,240,001 (Saturday, 2nd 19:00).
It's game on for the US versus China and eSports versus traditional sports. Let the games begin.

Investorideas.com - The Future of #CBD for Pain Treatment and Sports Medicine: Orion Nutraceuticals (CSE: $ORI.C), Aurora Cannabis (TSX: $ACB.TO), CannTrust Holdings (TSX: $TRST.TO), Kalytera Therapeutics (TSXV: $KALY.V)

Investorideas.com - The Future of #CBD for Pain Treatment and Sports Medicine: Orion Nutraceuticals (CSE: $ORI.C), Aurora Cannabis (TSX: $ACB.TO), CannTrust Holdings (TSX: $TRST.TO), Kalytera Therapeutics (TSXV: $KALY.V)



The Future of #CBD for Pain Treatment and Sports Medicine: Orion Nutraceuticals (CSE: $ORI.C), Aurora Cannabis (TSX: $ACB.TO), CannTrust Holdings (TSX: $TRST.TO), Kalytera Therapeutics (TSXV: $KALY.V)


Point Roberts, WA and Kelowna, BC - November 20, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource for cannabis stocks releases a snapshot looking at CBD and its future role as a pain treatment in healthcare, and how it is being advocated and embraced by professional athletes.
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) officially removed cannabidiol (CBD) from its Prohibited Substances List effective January 1, 2018 and that has opened up a lot of opportunity for athletes looking for more natural pain treatment solutions and companies in the space.
In June of this year, The BIG3 basketball league announced they will allow players to use cannabidiol (CBD) as a pain treatment and for recovery. "The BIG3 is uniquely positioned in professional sports as a player-powered league that looks at our players as partners not property," BIG3 co-founder and co-CEO Jeff Kwatinetz said in a statement. "As a testament to our relationship with our players, we listened to their feedback on CBD, as well as feedback from professionals in the regulatory and CBD industry, and decided to take this major step to support their health."
NFL Players are some of the biggest advocates of the use of CBD for pain and sports injuries and as a Washington Post article explains, "No professional sport has so many outspoken proponents of marijuana's medicinal qualities, but then again, no sport is as closely associated with pain and injury."
Looking at capitalizing on the CBD market opportunity, cannabis life science company Orion Nutraceuticals Inc. (CSE: ORI), just announce today it is entering the sports medicine CBD market with the addition of Shannon Ford-Smith, sports healthcare and CBD product expert to its advisory board.
From the news: Shannon Ford-Smith has a uniquely diverse background that includes education, construction, consumer goods as well as experience building and leading companies in the sports healthcare sector. She has over a decade of experience building, leading and establishing business direction.
Continued: Throughout her career she has developed deep market insight into the healthcare field. Her recent executive role at Floydʼs of Leadville as Director of Business Development includes the development of Aeliza (a medical grade CBD product line) and oversight of the Companyʼs expansion and growth into the Canadian market, hiring and leading the execution of a common vision of success while mitigating risk. She spearheaded development of the Aeliza line and personally oversaw every detail, from product development and formulation, manufacturing, business development, marketing, strategy, as well as bridging the gap between the medical world and cannabis.
Continued: "We are extremely pleased to add Shannon Ford-Smith to Orion Nutraceutical's advisory board", said Jonathan Fiteni, CEO of Orion. "Her impressive resume includes a strong background in both healthcare and business development. Shannon's experience in creating the CBD product line Aeliza will prove instrumental in the creation of Orion's own sports medicine CBD product lines."
Also looking at CBD for pain treatment, Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB) and McGill University announced in August, the launch of an international collaborative medical research project that will comprehensively examine the therapeutic impact and human health outcomes of cannabidiol (CBD) oil as a therapy for chronic pain and related anxiety and depression.
From the news: "Based on our extensive experience with more than 60,000 registered Canadian patients, we believe CBD to be one of the most impactful medical compounds to become legally available to people in need of non-addictive therapies to treat pain," stated Terry Booth, CEO. "Our support for and involvement with this project underlines Aurora's leadership in the medical cannabis space, as well as our long-term commitment to a science-based approach to deepen understanding of this amazing substance."
Taking a similar path and partnering with a major University, CannTrust Holdings Inc. (TSX: TRST), partnered with McMaster University on medicinal cannabis research for chronic pain and for designing more effective, safer treatment protocols in public health policies.
The race is on for companies in the sector and new advancements are being made. In late September, Kalytera Therapeutics, Inc. (TSX V: KALY ) (OTCQB: KALTFannounced a major step forward in its program to develop the first cannabinoid-derived pain treatment targeting activation of alpha3 glycine receptors.
"When activated, the alpha3 glycine receptor strongly blocks pain signals from being sent to the brain. Kalytera, and its research partner, Beetlebung Pharma Ltd. ("BPL"), have carried out a medicinal chemistry program to identify a novel analogue of cannabidiol ("CBD") that will block such pain signals via the activation of the alpha3 glycine receptor channel in the spinal cord. To date, no company has introduced into the market an agent specifically targeting this receptor."
As far as CBD's role in sports, it is really just the beginning. According to an article in SportsNet ,   "Former star NFL running back Ricky Williams thinks cannabis legalization in Canada is "a huge step forward" towards professional sports leagues like the NFL softening their stances on athletes using marijuana therapeutically."
For investors following cannabis stocks, Investor Ideas has created a stock directory of publicly traded CSE, TSX, TSXV, OTC, NASDAQ, NYSE, ASX Marijuana/Hemp Stocks

Super Bowl Champion Junior Bryant, Who Lived in Severe Pain After a Career-Ending Neck Injury, Endorses Phytoceutical Medicine from the Peak Health Center

"It's important for me to spread the message of healing using all-natural, plant-based products. I have never been one to take pharmaceuticals, but I was forced to because the pain I was living in was unbearable -- until I found Peak Health Center." - Junior Bryant
Junior Bryant played six seasons for the San Francisco 49ers as a defensive lineman before he suffered a career-ending neck injury in 2000 during a game in St. Louis. Bryant, just 29 years old at the time, subsequently found living with the injury very challenging as there was no surgical solution and conventional meds were ineffective.
"Physically it was difficult because of the nature of my injury," he said. "We couldn't do surgery so there was nothing to really fix. When it came time to take pain pills and try to mitigate some of the injuries...it was harder to manage that. I just had to kind of deal with it because I wasn't really getting the benefit."
Bryant's experience changed, however, when he met Dr. Bomi Joseph, FDA health advisor and founder of California-based nutrition and fitness company Peak Health.
"I was introduced to Dr. Joseph through a friend and met with him," Bryant said. "I think our first meeting was about four or five hours. It was just fascinating."
Peak Health develops phytoceutical (medicine derived from plants or herbs) products distributed through the Phyto Farmacy. This includes the recently patented ImmunAG™, the first non-cannabis cannabidiol (CBD) derived medicine from the Kriya Humulus plant. Bryant has been taking the product since first being introduced to Dr. Joseph and Peak Health.
"I started using ImmunAG™ the first day when I met Dr. Joseph and I've been on it ever since," he said.
Bryant's former teammate from the 49ers, Bart Oates, who also suffered a career-ending injury, advocates Cannabinoid derived treatment for concussions, as he told Investorideas.com last year. Dr. Bomi Joseph commented on why athletes may be more receptive to new and different types of medicine.
"I love working with elite athletes for one simple reason: They're much more in tune," Dr. Joseph said. "Their mind-body connection is so far greater than a normal person. Even injured athletes or athletes [who are] out of shape...they're very much in tune with their body."
