It's the same thing that Adam Silver has been trying to do with the NBA.

Now they're trying to do with the W's.

It will be very important.

I do believe it's coming.

I do not believe anything is going to happen until they can get this new CBA ratified, because that's ridiculous to have someone in high level conversations and then to bail ratified.

right when we're actually reaching like critical time in the space, I think is asinine.

So I don't anticipate any change happening before then, but I do anticipate a change coming.

And I talked to an executive in the NBA just about sort of the precarious situation that she's found herself in.

And, you know, I think the issue that they raised for me is that, like, Roger Goodell gets called a lot of names.

He's maligned, like, by fans.

He gets booed everywhere he goes.

And most of that is because everyone believes that he only works for the owners and he's got the owner's interest in mind only, right?

So he's in with the owners and he's not in with the players.

That's the idea, at least, the narrative that swirls.

When it comes to Kathy, she doesn't necessarily have great relationships with the teams or the players.

So if you're not...

If you're not like currying favor with either side, I just don't know how you survive it.

And I watched her, y'all, get booed mercilessly at the WNBA finals when we were in Phoenix.

And I think it shocked her.

I think it was really off-putting to her to see how she has become the villain in this story.
