509. Sports Business Summer 2025 Edition w/Scott Rosner

This week on Sports With Friends:

In the sports business, there are a slew of headlines that get covered in this episode. The Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics were recently sold. Is this a trend where other legacy sports owners will try to get out of owning franchises? In baseball, the Rays and A’s have untenable stadium situations. How big an issue is this for baseball?

Baseball is also trying to do new media deals and has a collective bargaining agreement expiring. Is NBA expansion on the horizon? Will Seattle get the Supersonics back?

Scott Rosner rejoins the podcast.
