[K-Apps]

FOX is going to try to get a slice of the NBA

Dont count out NBC either, I bet Peacock with some NBC OTA games will be what they will sell to the league

There was a sense that ESPN paid too much for the last contract

They are not going to triple it

I think Premier League or MLB gon do it first.

MLB is downsizing now


However, I think one of the oil clubs in soccer will do it

messi used to make 100 million a year

Mbappe was offered a 2 year contract worth 50 million a year with a 200 million signing bonus

 

[Wargames]

Who’s going to the first $100 mil a season player.

Tatum….

 

[Wolfpac]

They'll get a 100 billion.

That “sense” was wrong...which is why they're going to get what they're asking for

 

[Loose]

If they get 75 we will be able to field a superteam.

Alot of traditional network television has been abandoned now in favor of streaming shows and movies that are free of commercials. The easiest way for networks to get money these days is by selling ad space through live sports. That's one reason why these asking prices have shot up for the sports leagues. Live sports sells thirty second ad spots

Lol, i understand negotiations but 75 bil for a marginal product when you can take that money and get better rating with college football or bidding on the nfl. Lol

College football will never command that kind of money because an entire section of the country really doesn't care much for it (the Northeast)

 

[Remote]

This money will come from the fans.

I love sports as a game. I hate it as a business. It feels unsustainable.
