Keep paying attention kid 😉 Maybe don’t make a broad call like that after one game. Plenty of windows left
If you had Fox going for full-screen commercials at the first opportunity, even if you count Austin and @AlexMSilverman as friends and trust them, you may cash out your Bingo cards immediately...

Fox Sports will have a hybrid approach for hydration breaks during FIFA World Cup games, sources tell SBJ.
When picture-in-picture, expect an "editorial" approach, with camera on the field and with booth.
But there will be some full-screen ads/promos

If a U.S. World Cup run somehow gets turned into a Hollywood movie, at least we know Callum Turner can easily play JT Batson
New at @SBJ: @USSoccer has signed CEO JT Batson to a “long-term” contract extension. sportsbusinessjournal.com/Ar…

For the @FIFAWorldCup, @FOXSports is teaming with @YouTube to create an "Always On" stream during the event.
Content will include studio clips from the likes of @Jaboowins and even free, live match teases (5 minutes of 1st half, 5 minutes of 2nd half)

FWIW: heard that McAfee's 2-hour special on ESPN with league commissioners did just 278,000 viewers (doesnt include any YouTube).
That episode was good, but studio shows are limited in what they can bring vs. live sports.
🚨NEWS: Pat McAfee, ESPN negotiating $60M per year deal, The Athletic has learned.

Plenty of media elements with these MMR deals, too. This deal, for example, will see Sooner Sports Properties add another supervising producer for content, as well as multiple content creators

Oklahoma is set to announce a five-year extension of its deal with Learfield through 2037, the parties tell @SBJ.
The extension centers on the creation of the Sooner Evolution Center, an on-campus facility geared toward helping OU athletes activate on NIL deals.

Honestly this is a joke already.
Not incredibly surprised with this lower court decision given the legal venue and state politics of it all, but this screams for overturn on appeal.
