Episode 102 - All I Want For Xmas is a Game of Basketball

Is it sacrilegious to watch sport on Christmas Day? Or sacrilege not to? To figure it out, the team interview Sydney Kings Co-Owner, Paul Smith, who recently announced the NBL’s intention to break the taboo and own Christmas Day. Paul gives an off-the-cuff, sports business masterclass on potential benefits of first mover advantage, the risks that he and the NBL are taking and, most important of all, why it just might work. Also on the show: Has Ben Stokes signalled the end for 50 over cricket? Has Roachy had enough of LIV Golf? And is there anything Johnny can’t stomach about the Tom Brady of Hot Dog Eating? This one’s got everything - we hope you enjoy another great episode of For & Against.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
