Eric Fawcett (Gator Country, Basket Under Florida) and Neil W. Blackmon (Saturday Down South, Basket Under Review) discuss all things Florida and SEC basketball. On this episode, FBH is joined by Florida assistant coach and, for all intents and purposes, general manager Jonathan Safir, one of the brightest young minds in college basketball.Coach Safir discusses roster construction, why it's special to be a Gator, the incredible legacies of Alex Condon, Rueben Chinyelu, and Thomas Haugh, what's special about Todd Golden and much, much more. Thanks to the Stadium and Gale Network and our friends at Gametime Sidekicks for sponsoring the show.

We start with Three Things: the Lindsay Clancy murder trial jury is now on its sixth day of deliberations after telling the judge twice they're deadlocked — the defense is even seeking the removal of one juror, and mistrial chances are growing — plus France just recorded its hottest summer since measurements began. We break down your Labor Day travel, including UDOT tips on when to hit the road and when to stay put, and the TSA expects over 17 million passengers through checkpoints this weekend. Salt Lake City International Airport just launched "Gateside by TSA PreCheck," a new program that lets approved non-travelers go past security to meet people at the gate — and it could completely change how LDS missionary homecomings work. Plans are being discussed in Salt Lake City to build a concert venue in the Fairpark neighborhood right next door to the proposed MLB stadium, and the Miller family reportedly wants the ballpark to be a "national park". In News for the 1%, we dig into where there's a "mansion shortage." We talk travel tips, including the number-one mistake American tourists make abroad according to a former FBI agent, what actually happens if you don't put your phone in airplane mode, and U.S. destinations that feel international without needing a passport. And we wrap up with the AI Question of the Day.

Another frustrating night at Angel Stadium as the Angels fall to the New York Yankees 6-3 in 10 innings, despite a terrific performance from Reid Detmers. Detmers did everything the Angels could have asked for, holding New York to one run through seven innings, but once again the offense gave its starting pitcher almost nothing to work with. The Angels managed only four hits in the game, tied it late, and forced extra innings before the Yankees exploded for five runs in the 10th. The Angels answered with two, but by then the damage was done. And adding to the atmosphere: it certainly felt like Yankee Stadium West at times with all the Yankees support in the building. ToddFox talks about what it's like watching the Angels play at home with such a strong visiting-fan presence. But the game is only PART of tonight's show because the biggest Angels story continues to be Stan Kroenke's agreement to purchase controlling ownership of the franchise from Arte Moreno. The transaction is expected to become official in the first quarter of 2027, pending MLB approval. And now everybody wants to know: WHAT HAPPENS TO ANGEL STADIUM? There has already been plenty of speculation about a potential new ballpark, but there's an important distinction between rumors and confirmed plans. Anaheim owns Angel Stadium and the surrounding land, and the current Angels lease runs through 2032, with extension options potentially taking it through 2038. MLB reports that it remains unclear whether Kroenke would ultimately pursue a brand-new stadium or a major renovation accompanied by a larger sports-and-entertainment development. A report claiming Kroenke planned a $2.5 billion replacement stadium was subsequently taken down, and Anaheim officials said no such proposal had been presented to them. So ToddFox breaks down what we actually know, what remains speculation, and why Kroenke's track record developing SoFi Stadium and Hollywood Park makes the future of the Big A property one of the biggest stories to follow. Angels lose 6-3. Detmers deserved better. But with new ownership on the horizon, the future of Angels baseball suddenly feels a whole lot more interesting. Sound off in the comments: Would you rather Kroenke completely renovate the Big A or build a brand-new stadium in Anaheim? Subscribe to the ToddFox Postgame Show and HITI Network as we continue following the Kroenke ownership transition, stadium developments and everything happening with your Halos.

While the showdown between the All Blacks and the Springboks has led to lots of great sporting moments .. it's also created a whole lot of chat about fly overs. Last weekend two jets flew over Cape Town's Stadium ahead of the match, and many thought they were way too low. Now South Africa's aviation regulator is analyzing black box data from the planes .. and the planned flyover for this weekend's game has been binned. Vaughn Davis is a former Royal New Zealand Air Force pilot as well as an experienced commercial and display pilot, is with Jesse to discuss.

The Los Angeles Lakers have just been sold for $12.5 billion, the highest price ever paid for any sports franchise in history. This blockbuster deal has sent shockwaves through the worlds of finance, technology, and sports culture alike. What does it mean when the most iconic basketball team on the planet changes hands under these circumstances? To understand the full picture, we need to look at who is buying, why they are buying, and what happens to a legendary franchise when its new owners are not fans of the game. Mark Walter had purchased the Los Angeles Lakers roughly a year ago at a $10 billion valuation, which was itself a record at the time. Josh Kushner, who runs Thrive Capital, one of OpenAI’s largest shareholders, called Walter out of the blue and made an offer. Within 72 hours, a deal was struck. The team was never officially on the market. Walter, facing regulatory scrutiny from both the US attorney in Manhattan and the SEC over billions in loans tied to his conglomerate, needed liquidity fast. The sale was as much about financial pressure as it was about opportunity. This is just some of the topics that Pirates Christopher Lochhead, Eddie Yoon and Bri Clark discuss on this episode of The Pirate Street Journal. Each week, the Category Pirates pick three headlines worth paying attention to and break down the category underneath. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   The Financial Risks Behind the Los Angeles Lakers Deal Kushner is placing the Los Angeles Lakers inside a vehicle called Thrive Eternal, a fund designed specifically for assets he believes are immune to technological disruption. This is a fascinating strategic bet. The Lakers sit alongside a portfolio stuffed with AI winners, and buyers of sports franchises can write off the entire purchase price over 15 years, generating roughly $830 million per year in paper losses. That tax advantage alone makes the acquisition a compelling financial instrument, not just a trophy asset. However, the financial engineering behind this deal raises serious concerns. The NBA limits how much institutional investors can contribute and caps team debt at $475 million. This is the inverse of the traditional private equity playbook, where firms minimize their own capital and maximize leverage. Kushner and his partners do not have $12.5 billion sitting in cash. They are taking on enormous concentrated risk, and the question of who their exit liquidity will eventually be points uncomfortably toward retail investors when their AI holdings eventually go public.   What Happens When Non-Fans Own Iconic Teams The Bus family owned the Los Angeles Lakers since 1979. That is nearly five decades of stewardship rooted in a genuine connection to the team and the city. When passionate fans own teams, good things tend to happen. Mark Cuban sat courtside and screamed at referees because he cared. Ryan Smith bought the Utah Jazz and poured money into player facilities, hired legends like Danny Ainge, and helped transform Salt Lake City into a genuine entertainment destination. These are owners who think about championships and community, not just cashflow. When financial engineers own teams, the calculus changes entirely. Ticket prices rise. Star players get traded to cut costs. Stadium deals extract money from cities and municipalities that can barely afford it. The priority stack becomes clear: owners first, players second, cities third, and fans last. The Los Angeles Lakers are now a hedge against technological disruption inside a portfolio built by people whose primary expertise is in venture capital and artificial intelligence, not basketball. Whether that leads to winning or just profitable mediocrity remains to be seen.   The Broader Warning Signs for the Sports Economy The Los Angeles Lakers sale does not exist in a vacuum. Across the NBA, a pattern is emerging that looks uncomfortably familiar. Team valuations have skyrocketed from hundreds of millions to tens of billions in a remarkably short period of time. Owners who bought at peak valuations are already showing signs of financial strain. Matt Ishbia bought the Phoenix Suns for around $4 billion by pledging his mortgage company as collateral and betting that interest rates would fall. They did not. He may now be facing pressure to sell stakes in the team. The S&P500 is up nearly 75 percent over the past three years, making wealthy investors feel flush and willing to take on risks they would normally avoid. But market runs do not last forever, and when the tide goes out, we find out who has been swimming without protection. The concentration of risk among sports franchise owners, combined with NBA rules that prevent traditional leverage strategies, creates a fragile ecosystem. The Los Angeles Lakers may be the most visible example of a much larger systemic stress building quietly beneath the surface of professional sports.

Somebody in California just stole 40,000 pounds of Pabst Blue Ribbon in what may be the largest beer heist ever, and somehow that isn't even the strangest story of the week. Villanova blew a 10-point lead in under a minute, USC opened against Fresno State in front of a painfully empty Coliseum, Eastern Michigan and UNLV delivered two very different entrances, and Brent Venables gave a great answer on why he still coaches. Then we get into the real college football chaos: Lane Kiffin says his players support bringing former NFL players back, while the SEC is reportedly considering extreme measures against LSU as the eligibility fight keeps escalating.

Galen Clavio sits down with Jeremy Gray, Indiana Athletics' Senior Associate Athletic Director for Marketing and Fan Experience, for CrimsonCast's annual look at what fans should expect around Memorial Stadium as Indiana football gets ready to open the 2026 season against North Texas.The context is still hard to believe. Two years ago, a successful Indiana football build might have meant bowl eligibility, then seven or eight wins, then maybe a special nine-win season. Instead, IU went from hoping for progress to an 11-win season, then to an undefeated Big Ten championship and national championship season. Now the program is not just managing football operations — it is managing attention, demand, promotion, and a fan base that expects Memorial Stadium to feel like the home of a national power.Jeremy talks through what that change looks like from the athletic department side. The conversation touches on Curt Cignetti's rise as a national figure, the promotional opportunities that came with the championship, stadium use for outside projects, the college football video-game process, commercial shoots, and how IU tries to say yes to the right opportunities without turning the football program into a distraction machine.A major theme is scale. Memorial Stadium has improved dramatically as a fan experience over the last several years, but the job is different when the stadium is expected to be full every week. Galen and Jeremy discuss what changed after the 2024 Nebraska game, how the department has had to adapt quickly, and why marketing, ticketing, game operations, and fan services all have to operate differently when football becomes a true campus-wide event.They also get into the details fans care about most: student-section logistics, ticket demand, stadium flow, tailgating, outside-the-stadium activity, traditions, sponsor activations, crowd expectations, and the pressure that bigger crowds put on facilities. The goal is not just to celebrate that Indiana football is good now — it is to make sure the entire gameday operation grows with the program.
