When I launched the Juice List nine years ago, the mission seemed easy: Rank the 25 most influential people in New Jersey sports. And yet, judging by the comments and questions each summer, it's complicated.
That's because juice can mean many things to many people. Is it the influence to change the direction of a Big Ten athletic department, which earned Patrick Hobbs the No. 1 spot last summer?
Is it the power that comes with owning two teams that matter to New Jersey fans, such as Josh Harris and David Blitzer, the men who held the top spot together in 2014?
