In an effort to combat tanking, some people have suggested abolishing the draft entirely. Is it plausible or just a half-baked idea. We get into this and more tanking discussion on the latest episode of Deep Cover.

Nike has been in the news for not resonating with its customer base like it used to. A big part of that is the way the reseller market has warped the perception of the company.

Has NIL shifted the calculus for a lot of potential draft picks deciding on when to enter the draft? Francis Carlota joins me on the podcast this week to discuss.

Coverage of the NBA often seems to lack in schematic breakdowns, while that sort of commentary is praised in the NFL. Discussed why the Madden video game might have something to do with that this week on Deep Cover with Adam Taylor.

We all love our fan gear, but how does sustainability fit into that picture? I talked with Lauren Teague, founder of FanWagn, to discuss how her company approaches making sustainability a core goal in an industry filled with fast fashion and textile waste.

Live sports broadcasting has opened up to more and more tech companies. It has led to more rights holders but also to some innovation in presentation. Sophia Prieto joins me to discuss if tech companies in sports rights is a good or a bad thing.

The issue of tanking has come up again, but is the outrage a function of timing in the sports calendar more than anything? Went long on NBA ranking in this week's episode of Deep Cover with Tone from the BME Pod.

There were no Black head coaches hired in this NFL this off-season. Matt Lombardo and I discussed why that is and why it's a problem for the NFL on the latest episode of Deep Cover.

The NBA and other leagues have further aligned themselves with big tech for broadcasting rights. But are they leaving themselves exposed by aligning themselves with companies so all in on relatively unpopular AI products?

March Madness brackets are a social ritual at this point, more so than any other picking mechanism in other sports. They create a sense of joy, despair, and strangely connectivity in a world that has stripped so much of that away.

ya know, every now and then when we are working, we may find ourselves having made one or two that just didnt fit. its easy to see these as complete flops, and be hard on ourselves... or, we can take them as an opportunity to experiment and play. #pottery #opportunity #play #process #creativity

Silencing free speech kills democracy. They’re trying! We cannot allow conservative media companies with a disinformation agenda like Sinclair and Nexstar to dominate our public discourse. #EndSinclair #EndNexstar #BrendanCarr #FCC #MediaConsolidation #Sinclair #Nexstar #FirstAmendment #USPol

I was reminded of the Cherokee legend of two wolves. One embodies ego and lies, the other kindness and truth. It's a reminder of our internal conflict. Stress often feeds the negative wolf, but nurturing joy transforms our lives. Which wolf are you feeding today? 🌕🐺

Joctyė gets her right back, stonewalling the Salaün drive late in the shot clock... with Laeticia Amihere, switching into the low defender role, getting in on the help as well.

This could be a good moment for someone to say, "Okay, everyone who pushed for this guy needs to have their influence cut away" but it's more likely this will be misconstrued as, "Democrats won't do what it takes to win" Anyway time to forget about this guy and focus on dumb Canada stuff.
