It's Just Business Ep 84 - Can we all just opt-out of 2020 now? - a podcast by The Hog Sty

With the full compliment of sports business gabbers intact for a second straight episode, we dove in got to the constant steam of societal problems that now accompany every show. First up was discussion of how NASCAR handled the noose/not a noose issue that roiled their sport (not a sport…) last week. Steve was critical of their PR bungling while John articulated the larger context. Chris was still confounded by NASCAR as a sport. Next up was the trend in COVID 19 related opt-out clauses for upcoming/ start/restart of pro sports leagues. The NBA already has this and now MLB has it as well. Hi Ryan Zimmerman. This crossed over into competitive balance issues, player safety, risk management and labor relations. It also allowed the gang to dunk on the Washington Wizards. All of this lead up to a closer examination of the NFL as they speed closer to real decisions about their season. One thing we all definitively learned was that John loves Omaha Steaks.
