Show Notes

Scott Soshnick, Michael Barr and Eben Novy-Williams discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including the rising valuations of Major League Soccer teams. Atlanta United is, according to Forbes, worth a league-leading $330 million, followed by the LA Galaxy and Seattle Sounders. Also discussed is the NCAA's reversal of its decision regarding an athlete whose parents disowned her, prompting friends to start a GoFundMe page that has amassed more than $100,000 in donations. The trio also discusses Amazon's interest in the regional sports networks being sold by Disney as part of its $71 billion asset purchase from Fox.
