Manage episode 305570646 series 2911713
Chris's wild MLB Playoff run came to an end this past week as the Red Sox fell to the Houston Astros. We touch on how Fenway has never been more electric and was all made possible by a much younger audience. Rob gets HUGE news that his basketball games are coming back and Chris starts the countdown to Rob's inevitable ACL tear. We take a deep dive into the world of sports and TV viewership. The NFL dominates on an annual basis as they own roughly 95% of the top 100 watched shows on TV throughout the year. MLB has had a major issue with the majority of cord cutters unable to watch their games due to the fact the YouTube's and Hulu's don't carry the Regional Sports Networks. Chris breakdown the future of MLB TV and how in the near future you'll likely be able to purchase your local RSN no different than you do HBO Max. Lastly, we explore the MASSIVE reach of Liverpool FC around the Globe and how their number or fans and viewers dwarfs all US Sports.
