Accept whatever position is even remotely related to sports. You need to get your foot in the door and get experience. It's expected you will make vertical moves down the road. You bring no value at this point and are barely a step above the concession stand workers. Take a job that involves a desk and possibly a computer and grind it out and soak everything up until another opportunity arises.

This to the T..accept a position that is in the path of your goal or dream job, but don't expect someone you barely know to give you a great job and pay what you think you're worth just because.. The few people that I know that are doing well with this degree/career worked long hours answering to shitty people and began to make vertical moves after a 3-4 hard years. The other thousand gave up early because they expected to be the GM of the Saints and got a job setting up displays and lunch at spring training instead.
