rules in place to protect the owner class? where have i heard that one before

Oh boy a video about pro sports ownership! I hope he talks about Harold Ballard or Eugene Melnyk or Dollar Bill Wirtz!

Your videos are amazing dude!!

I have only one thing to say to you dude. Be confident. You are so fucking good at this. You are one of the best sports KZbinrs on the platform in my opinion. It just looks wonderful. Genuinely flawless videos coming out. Stay confident bro.

I call last year's game choke auburn choke

As a European going to Auburn, I bloody love it ❤️

I'm out after wasting two minutes listening to blather.

the failure to mention MLS and the US Open Cup will not be tolerated! lol

this is a great video the copyright issue is unfortunate but this should have no less than 250k views seriously

IU SUCKS

Hey man, I've been watching you for a while now. You might've seen my comments begging you to pass me in subs, and I'm glad you have. You are the next man up when it comes to sports content, and if you ever need a hand cooking the Chicago Bears (or any other Chicago team) shoot me a call. Sorry it's only 2 bucks, but it's what I got for you brother

2 other possibilities as to the discrepancy in name: Dolly could have used a different first name and nickname as an easy out, in case someone spotted him as a fake he could point out the difference in name and explain that it was a misunderstanding all along. It's also possible that he was going by a written or printed game report that had itself gotten Howdy Gray's name wrong. Typos like that weren't uncommon in newspapers of the era, see the box score at 7:13 that misspells Lambeau as "Gambeau". Researchers who try to compile the biographies of early baseball players sometimes conclude that an unidentified player never existed, and was a different guy who had his name recorded wrong one time.

Recovering from bronchitis and going through your catalog. You and Undertaker's podcast have kept me from going crazy the past few days. I hope you see a golden play button before next summer, and I hope one day I can help you make a video on how bad the Bears are.

This hits even harder while watched during a layover at the Dallas airport

Dude, your videos are so awesome. You deserve waaaaaay more views. I have literally no KZbin or creator experience but if there is anything I can do to help you out I’d be beyond thrilled. Don’t hesitate to reach out. Keep it up my man!!

I don't even like sports and this turned out to be one of my favourite videos of the year, that's impressive.

good vid

Great video as always, but I've noticed quite a bit of mispronounced words in the past 3 videos. One more quality pass on the audio should be enough to catch them

Love your channel but some of your criticisms were a reach, like did you actually care that Dolan fired that guy who had the job for 40 years or was it just another log for the pile? You say MSG is partially publicly funded but your table showed it at 0% and googling doesnt turn up any public funding, I guess you wouldnt have said it for no reason though. "Without the cartels all money would flow to the players". Oh those poor NBA players making $50m/year, they deserve so much more! I think there are trade offs to both systems, it's nice in Europe that bad ownership is punished with relegation rather than rewarded with the best draft picks. But the franchise model has advantages too, like smaller teams get a chance to win championships, and the teams are financially healthier.

3:28, YEP. The exact thing I said as you asked what the worst blowout is

why is James Dolan dressed like gru in the photo you used for him

I immediately began thinking about the "silly rabbit" clip when Sterling was brought up. LO AND BEHOLD, it's the SAME GUY

I love these videos man. You deserve so much more recognition for this amount of research and effort into editing. These are great

Opening with Pohlad was wild to me (a diehard Twins fan). He was/is incredibly hated here, but I feel like most non-Minnesotans barely know about him (and his kids).

13:20 You know I know to much about sports when this graph immediately makes sense to me lol

Watching a video this good for free feels like robbery. Amazing job dude

1:05:22 great video but you do not, under any circumstances, have to hand it to marsha blackburn

you sir are officially in the top tier of sports video essays man this has been some elite work

3 crazy goods videos bsck to back to back

you need to tighten up the script a little. you're not summoningsalt just get to the point

Fantastic video! Someone else in the comments called it bois-esque and I’m inclined to agree!

55:23 I thought you were gonna say rising rent prices😂

Underrated af holy

Good ass video

It's surreal to hear the _Premier League_ being held up as a positive model for sports club ownership. The soccer world usually idealizes the German "50%+1 Fan Ownership", where fans own almost all the clubs in Germany except for a select few that were grandfathered in (Wolfsburg) or hated (RB). The Prem's treated like a league where only money matters, so it's funny to hear it being used the "good" example.

I feel like you could probably do the same to the New Orleans Pelicans... or Charlotte Bobcats... or Charlotte Hornets.... that whole mis-mash of a 2 team timeline

Hydn you need to calm down and stop dropping bangers monthly

The reason that the Spanish Paralympic team actually committed the fraud was because they were trying to get more funding from the Spanish government for their normal disabled olympians by getting some wins for the country

This feels like a collection of interesting tidbits, which are enjoyable, but I don't think the overall 1+ hour narrative came together the best it could have

What a naive and uniquely American perspective on European sport club ownership

The ownership models in European clubs and their changes in their last 25-30 years is really a case on its own. The socios model, the 50+1 rule, the bankruptcy and disbandment of clubs, the ones "owned" by governments or armed forces, the corporate groups buying clubs all over, and in the last 5 years the conflict of interest when someone owns more than one club. And their attempt at a cartel league: The SUPERLEAGUE. It's a whole bag of marbles.

BobbyBroccoly version 2, 38 secs onto yhe video and i already think that

I was really hoping this would have been a video on ullamalitzli

17:47 with Blake Griffin's sunglasses sliding down exactly as his face melts in shocked horror is an all time video moment. It's like the "deal with it" glasses, but sad

keep cooking, you will get it.

Paying college players was a huge mistake.

For those wondering, relocations have happened in English football, but they are extremely rare and extremely unpopular. Look up the story of Wimbledon FC, their relocation to Milton Keynes and being renamed Milton Keynes Dons FC in 2003, and the Wimbledon fans effort to make their new team, AFC Wimbledon (who now play at the same level as Milton Keynes after many promotions within the English football league pyramid), which is similarly community-owned like the Green Bay Packers.

As someone who just finished their sport and recreation management degree, this is an outstanding piece of content that covers lessons learned from my sport economic, sport law, and venue management classes. Great work and keep up this kind of content!
