Hey there, boys and girls.

Welcome to another edition of the Business of Sports with Andrew Brand.

I saw a Vanity Fair article in the past week by an old friend of mine from ASPN Days, Bimani Jones. I've

always enjoyed his commentary on social issues, on all kinds of issues revolving around players and

sports. He wrote about college football and the paradigm of power between college football players

and those who they work for and administrations.

And sort of the house of cards that college football is built on as everything is dependent

on this free labor that they provide.

Just an always interesting conversation with Momani.

And I thought I'd have them on, somebody I wanted

to have on for quite some time to really sort of engage in intellectual and open and honest

conversation about the issues of today in pro sports and college sports, social justice issues,

etc. So without further ado, my guest this week on the Business of Sports podcast, the one and only,

B'amani Jones.

I always enjoyed talking to smart people that bring a different perspective.
