BOTTOM LINE: Nothing drove more attention to — and response from — the sports industry than Trump. The amount of media attention was overwhelming. Editors at SportsBusiness Journal and Daily can attest that no single individual had a constant thread throughout the sports business in 2017 like he did, resulting in massive coverage, press inches and points of view. Frankly, organizations were unprepared for how to handle Trump’s verbal spars, and most were downright uncomfortable and afraid to address it. The amount of times a top executive told me before a public interview, “Just don’t ask about Trump,” is too many to count and shows the delicate nature of how hot and polarizing Trump has become.

A controversial choice, but Trump?s influence is undeniable - SportsBusiness Daily | SportsBusiness Journal | SportsBusiness Daily Global

Trump not only deserves this award, he will win it next year. Especially after he tells the U.S. to boycott the Winter Olympics (probably a smart move for security concerns).
 
How does an overweight, out of shape guy get such an honor? I am sure Obama will match his Nobel Prize against Trumps honor lol
