You're listening to Draft King's Network. Hey there, boys and girls, welcome to another edition of the business of sports with Andrew Brand.

I'm your host, Andrew Brand. That music you hear is from my son, Sam Brand, our orchestrator and musical producer.

We're produced by Jack Connell, and we're presented, as always, by Draft Kings.

Happy New Year. Welcome to 2025, as I say to my family all the time, let's make it the best

consistent. I know it's hard, but the best people seem to just show up. Even if they're a writer

and they only write for 10 minutes a day, they show up. If they're a lifter and they only

lift 10 minutes away a day, they show up. If they're a lifter and they only lift

10 minutes away a day, they show up. Okay, enough lecture. I'm going to get to the business of

sports this week. I am coming to you from Miami. University of Miami hires me a week every year to

do a mini class, a full class on sports law and business within a week. So I'm in Miami.
