3x Super Bowl Champion, Analyst for the Fox Sports NFL, UFL EVP Pro Football Executive Daryl "Moose" Johnston 3x Super Bowl Champion, Analyst for the Fox Sports NFL, UFL EVP Pro Football Executive Daryl "Moose" Johnston is a seasoned football analyst, three-time Super Bowl champion, and two-time Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl fullback. Currently, he serves as an analyst in the FOX NFL broadcast booth, partnering with play-by-play announcer Joe Davis and veteran reporter Pam Oliver. Johnston's insights and commentary bring depth and expertise to the NFL coverage, blending his years of experience as a player with his sharp broadcasting skills. In addition to his broadcasting career, Johnston continues to make significant contributions to the football world. In 2021, he was named Executive Vice President of Football Operations for the USFL, playing a key role in the league’s successful launch. Following the USFL’s merger with the XFL to form the UFL, Johnston continues in his leadership role as EVP of Football Operations for the newly formed league, overseeing its growth and development. A Storied Football Career Johnston’s broadcasting career began in 2001 when he joined the FOX NFL booth full-time after spending a year as a game analyst for NFL on CBS. Over the years, he has worked with various play-by-play announcers, including Dick Stockton, Kenny Albert, and Kevin Burkhardt, and has teamed up with legendary personalities like Tony Siragusa. In 2008, he had the opportunity to call the BCS Orange Bowl, and in 2009, he was in the booth for the BCS Sugar Bowl between Alabama and Utah. Johnston’s football analysis and deep knowledge of the game have made him a respected voice on both NFL Network’s "Total Access" and his various media appearances, including his radio show, "The Moose Call" , and hosting duties on local TV shows like “Inside the Huddle” . Johnston’s nickname, “Moose,” was given to him by former teammate Babe Laufenberg, and it became a fitting moniker for the durable, powerhouse fullback. His NFL career began in 1989 when he was drafted in the second round by the Dallas Cowboys after a standout college career at Syracuse University. There, he was named an All-American and earned All-Big East honors in 1988 while earning a degree in economics. Johnston was a key contributor to the Cowboys' dominant Super Bowl victories in 1993, 1994, and 1996, cementing his legacy as one of the most dependable and versatile players in franchise history. A two-time Pro Bowl selection, Johnston was known for his ability to block, catch, and rush the ball, finishing his career with 294 receptions for 2,227 yards and 14 touchdowns, as well as 232 rushes for 753 yards and 8 touchdowns. His career-high of 50 receptions in 1993 remains a testament to his all-around skill set. Despite a career-threatening neck injury in 1997, Johnston played in 149 consecutive games, including the postseason. He made an impressive recovery and continued to play through the 1999 season, but injuries ultimately ended his playing career. Leadership Beyond the Field In 2018, Johnston was named the General Manager of the San Antonio Commanders in the Alliance of American Football League, further showcasing his leadership and football acumen. His role in shaping the team’s roster and operations reflected his vast understanding of the game and his ability to transition into the management side of football. Johnston's legacy is not only defined by his athletic achievements but also by his tireless commitment to giving back to the community. He has dedicated much of his time to charity work, supporting causes such as the Special Olympics, Children's Cancer Fund, Cystic Fibrosis, Muscular Dystrophy Association's Aisles for Smiles, and Literacy Instruction for Texas (LIFT). His philanthropic efforts led to his nomination for the prestigious Whizzer White Humanitarian Award in 1999. A resident of Dallas with his wife Diane, and their children Aidan and Evan, Johnston continues to inspire both on and off the field, proving that his influence in the football world extends far beyond his playing career.

Workplace Expert, Author, Humorist Joel Zeff Workplace Expert, Author, Humorist Joel Zeff creates energy. As a dynamic speaker, improvisational humorist, and author, he brings his audiences to life with interactive performances that encourage participation in hilarious improvisational exercises. These exercises illustrate his central message: organizations and individuals should CELEBRATE everyday successes to boost collaboration, productivity, passion, and innovation. Since 1997, Joel has inspired audiences at companies such as Wells Fargo, Samsung, KPMG, and even the IRS—yes, the IRS. Joel is a masterful public speaker and a nationally renowned motivator, lifelong humorist, and improvisational actor. His career is a pursuit of fun and passion. He first discovered the importance of both in his early jobs delivering newspapers and cleaning up trash at a suburban movie theater. Joel’s professional career began in journalism and public relations. In 1994, he transitioned to corporate communications, helping clients with employee communications, media relations, strategy, and customer marketing. Over time, he realized that his clients—many from high-level technology and telecommunications firms—needed more than just marketing strategies. They were hungry for fun, passion, and fresh perspectives on finding success. At the same time, Joel was pursuing comedy on the weekends. Through friends, he discovered improvisational comedy. One of his clients, a large technology company, knew about his weekend comedy gigs and asked him to perform some improvisational games for a group of high-level executives. He brought a fellow comedian along, and thus began his corporate speaking career. Joel connects with his audiences using humor so powerful that it leaves them laughing until their mascara runs, cheeks hurt, and bellies ache. He invites volunteers from the audience to join him on stage and play improvisation games—something many have never done before. He expects nothing less than their success, challenging them to focus, collaborate as a team, communicate effectively, and take responsibility. His presentation, Make the Right Choice, is a mix of humor, inspiration, and practical business insights. Joel’s goal is not just to make you laugh, but also to make you think. The talk provides significant ideas to help audience members reconnect with their passion and drive for success. As outlined in his book, Make the Right Choice , Joel believes that we all face choices in our careers and lives. Every day offers an opportunity to make the right choice to live a more creative, passionate, and productive life. How do you make the right choice? By choosing to provide opportunity, offer positive support, and most importantly, by choosing to have fun. It’s that simple—and Joel shows us how. Outside of speaking, Joel channels his creativity as an actor, writer, and comedian. He began performing professionally in 1992 and was co-host of The Movie Zone on UPN 21 in Dallas. He has appeared in dozens of commercials for clients such as Dallas Cowboys, Harrah’s Casino, Time Warner Cable, Pizza Hut, McDonald’s, and many others.

American Speedskater, 1994 Winter Olympics Gold Medalist Dan Jansen American Speedskater, 1994 Winter Olympics Gold Medalist Dan Jansen is an iconic figure in the world of speed skating, known not only for his incredible athleticism but also for his resilience and determination in the face of adversity. By the time of the 1994 Olympic Winter Games in Lillehammer, Jansen had already established himself as one of the sport's greatest competitors, with seven overall World Cup titles and seven world records to his name. However, his Olympic journey had been marked by heartbreak and disappointment. Jansen’s first Olympic appearance came in 1984, where he finished a heartbreaking fourth place in the 500m. He returned in 1988 as one of the favorites, but tragedy struck on the morning of the 500m event when his sister, Jane, passed away from leukemia. Despite the personal loss, Jansen attempted to race but fell in both the 500m and the 1,000m, leaving him empty-handed. In 1992, Jansen once again entered the Olympics as a favorite, but despite his skill, he could do no better than fourth place in the 500m and 26th in the 1,000m, further deepening his Olympic frustration. As he entered the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Jansen was the overwhelming favorite in the 500m event. However, in a cruel twist of fate, he slipped during his race and finished eighth, yet again falling short of an Olympic medal. At that point, Jansen had competed in seven Olympic events over the span of a decade without securing a single medal. But Jansen's story was far from over. His final chance for Olympic glory came in the 1,000m event, where six of his opponents had better times. Despite the odds, Jansen skated with remarkable focus and determination. He was on world-record pace when he stumbled during the penultimate turn. With incredible composure, he steadied himself and surged forward, ultimately crossing the finish line in 1:12.43, setting a new world record and winning his first-ever Olympic gold medal. Jansen’s triumph in Lillehammer was not just a victory in speed skating but a testament to the power of perseverance, turning years of heartbreak into an unforgettable moment of redemption.
