Video and Transcript for The NFL Collusion Scandal Includes Antitrust, Strip Clubs, And A Whole Lot Of Drama.
Below you can find a YouTube post of the recording for Episode #44, The NFL Collusion Scandal Includes Antitrust, Strip Clubs, And A Whole Lot Of Drama.
This week David and Matt hit the sled to push the latest sports scandal you’re not hearing about over the yard marker of awareness. They’re joined by fellow figurative heavyweights Doha Mekki and Pablo Torre. The team huddles up to break down the insane story behind possible collusion between NFL owners and the NFL Players Association to suppress player wages. Specifically, guaranteed contracts, and even more specific, for high value players like quarterbacks.
Other major sports leagues, no matter which ones you choose to fit the description, have some guaranteed contracts, yet incredibly one of the oldest, most profitable, and supremely popular leagues in America has managed to avoid them for decades. We discuss how this ever could possibly have happened (wink, wink). They also discuss how this is but a single data point in the rampant infection of corruption throughout US society.
This is not as heavily edited as the podcast, it’s closer to the raw video of our taping session. We also have a rough transcript for you.
We have set up a YouTube channel that you can subscribe to for all future episodes.
Thanks for watching the show! We’ll have another one for you soon.
