SportsDogs™ was launched in 2010 by a bunch of guys who liked the idea of saving money, but weren't crazy about being bombarded with emails for nail salons, ceramic painting classes and cupcakes. Not that we don't like cupcakes, but let's get real, the chances of any of us ever buying a dozen cupcakes, lacking a threat of bodily harm or withholding of affections by our significant others, is slim to none.
That's where the idea of Deals for Dudes™ was born. We're guys - we don't spent a lot of time talking about our mission – we just look for deals on stuff we think is cool – and try to help other guys save money too. Because the more we save, the more we have left over for beer. Just kidding. Not really.
The SportsDogs Pledge
Give you stuff you want.
If you're looking for deals on aromatherapy, photo albums or body wraps, more power to you bro, but don't look here. If you're looking for awesome deals on tickets to games, golf, pub deals, paintball, sporting goods, electronics and other stuff for dudes, you're at the right place.
Keep it simple.
Here's the deal. Buy it. Share it. Use it. That's it dude.
Have fun.
Go to a game. Shoot someone with a paintball. Get out of the house and have some fun.
The SportsDogs
That Guy (as in "hey, it's That Guy") & CEO
John Irvine who is often mistaken for Al Gore and sadly has never been able to capitalize on the resemblance for anything more than getting seated fast at Planet Hollywood, is an avid Formula One fan, fantasy football addict and paintball maniac (it's all about the finger roll). John was into Econ at Cal State Long Beach, in Finance at Flying Tigers airlines and was the CEO of a national industrial maintenance franchise corporation before deciding the big corporate world wasn't his groove. Loathe to call himself an entrepreneur, he's nonetheless started and sold several businesses including a publishing company, an advertising agency and an internet development company. Try and stump him with any car question - go ahead - we keep trying and can't do it - at jirvine@sportsdogs.com.
Deal Guy & VP of Sales
Kevin Higgins "Kev" is never mistaken for Al Gore although he has tried to fake his way into an early tee time by using his last name as a sad reference to Magnum P.I. Kevin will go to any sports event, anywhere, anytime (who-wah) although like any true-red Beantowner it's particulary hard to drag him away from a Sox game. Before becoming a SportsDog, Kev did Poli-Sci at U Mass and honed his suave sales techniques (hello ladies) rising to Executive Management at a global high-end consumer goods company before launching his own successful companies in the consumer goods and telecommunications industries. Kev has a world-renowned collection of golf jokes – wanna hear one? Email kev at khiggins@sportsdogs.com.
