Love him or hate him, you have to admire the drive and enthusiasm of Sydney Roosters supremo Nick Politis. Closing in on his 80th birthday, Politis flew to Los Angeles over the weekend to attend the Super Bowl. One of Australia's richest men with a net worth of over $2 billion, Politis will doubtless pick up marketing and promotional tips for his beloved Roosters at the world's biggest football event. Politis was the first man to sponsor a league team with the Roosters and his City Ford dealership in 1976 and his passion for the game has never waned. He and I have clashed more than once but I have to admire his love for football and his behind the scenes work in making the Roosters one of the NRL's glamour clubs.
