354. Sports Business: Streaming Sports, Team Values, LIV Golf

This week on Sports With Friends:

This episode covers various sports business topics with Dan Kaplan, Senior Writer for Sports Business at the Athletic. Kaplan spent 21 years at SportsBusiness Journal, helping create before the magazine even launched the leading industry publication for sports business news. He left in May 2019 to join The Athletic’s sports business group.

Topics on this show include: 1) NESN recently announced a new standalone streaming app that fans can purchase without a cable subscription. Still, VPNs and other technologies can make the games available without needing to subscribe. (5:01)

2) Team valuations continue to skyrocket even when that team or sport is not thriving. (18:32)

3) LIV Golf launches this weekend. Will the PGA ban players who participate? Will Golfers and/or fans stay away because it is funded by Saudi Arabian interests? (25:49)
