  • Meadowlark Media CEO John Skipper and ‪@NPDS‬ David Samson are back with another episode with ‪@PabloTorreFindsOut‬ host... Pablo Torre to host! Welcome to the Sporting Class! We start today off with what’s going on within the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the business of it. Sports leagues are speaking out. Players are speaking out. Fans are speaking out. (13:30) Where do we stand on the global sports power rankings currently? The NFL wants Europe. The NBA has games in Abu Dhabi. Why are they doing this? (25:55) World Cup 2034 is right around the corner. And the nominations are in… it’s Saudi Arabia… and… who? (38:23) What is Warner Bros. Discovery up to? It could be a battle with ESPN and Fox. But what about the NBA? Could they be giving part of that pie up? (45:20) Rich Paul has come out and said the collapse of the Regional Sports Networks is actually good for the players. How true is this? Does he see something others don’t?

    Bottom line: Our biases guide our concerns. You could kill 100k Palestinians, and it will mean nothing because most people have never met anyone from Palestine, at least as far as they know. Just as with the Rohingya. But we live and work alongside Jewish Americans, we see them more than, say, your average Palestinian, and so it goes...
    The problem with our biases is that we are blind to the margins that exist within those belief systems. Because we believe, or should believe that Israel has a right to exist, the general public turns a blind eye to the dark realities of what is claimed under self-defense. We can demonize Palestinians by using Hamas much like right wingers here cover everything under ANTIFA. The truth is, if you want to maintain control, you support the opposition that makes you look the most justified in your actions. Hamas is a puppet of Israel, willing or otherwise, at a political level. As Netanyhu himself once said, he "controls the flames."
    If you don't see that as a betrayal of the PEOPLE of Israel, both arab and jew, then you will never see why nothing will ever be fixed in a way that all involved can live long and fruitful lives.

    I love these Sporting Class podcasts, because I'm really interested in the business of sports. I used to follow Darren Rovell when he was a sports business analyst for ESPN, but he did not provide regular content. I'm so glad that Meadowlark is providing regular sports business content provided by two former insiders.

    I appreciate the honesty David that You said you don’t take into consideration whether any Palestinian owners, but you clearly state that jewish businesses and sports leagues with jewish owners is relevant. And you mention having personal connections. So I guess not considering Palestinian owners is because you do not have a connection.

    Palestine has been forced off their own land and told where they can go for extremely long time, the whole world looks the other way. Israel is what we see as being attacked.. hard to attack an occupying force as it is for the Palestinians it stands to reason as people stopped caring about Palestinians there side of some of this seems to be lost , I’m not saying it’s anyone’s fault for the country being split like it was when it was but again shame we only see one sides suffering as they both suffer a great deal actually.

      Palestine doesn't exist to God=Lord Jesus Christ. He wants it to be Israel. It is all.of Canaan including Gaza, all of the Sinai Peninsula, part of Egypt by the Nile river, all of Jordan, all of Lebanon, part of southern Syria where Damascus is at, part of southern Iraq where Eden was and where Abraham is originally from and part of northern Saudi Arabia. No one can go against God=Lord Jesus Christ's own will.

John 8:24 Jesus(God) said Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I AM, you will die in your sins.” John 14: 6-7 Jesus (God) said to him, “I AM the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, then you will also know my Father. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”.

    Holy cow David Sampson lost all my respect today. Crying victim when your own people have been raping and pillaging palestine for half a century 😂. The cherry on top is seeing my tax dollars somehow end up in Israel and probably a small fraction of that went indirectly into his pocket. 😢
    The kicker is looking up jewish median household income and then comparing it to the rest of us 😢.

      We can't go against God=Lord Jesus Christ's will. He wants it to be Israel. Not Palestine. Israel is all of Canaan, all of the Sinai Peninsula, part of Egypt by the Nile river, all of Jordan, all of Lebanon, part of southern Syria where Damascus is at, part of southern Iraq where Eden was and where Abraham is from and part of northern Saudi Arabia. All of that is the Holy land of Israel. We all will acknowledge God being Lord Jesus Christ. He happens to be the King of Israel and of all. He will summon all of the living and the dead to the site of judgement in Israel. It is the next prophesy as stated in Revelation in the Holy Bible. If you don't believe me you can see for yourself. Unfortunately the unrepentant evildoers and the disbelievers will be judged of their wrongful doings by God=Lord Jesus Christ Himself and then His angels will throw the poor condemned into the lake of fire and brimstone. It is the second death. While those that have willingly accepted Lord Jesus Christ as their God and their Savior and have personally confessed their wrong doings to Him and have repented , those will be spared of His judgement. Those will have fellowship with Him. Those will be of His seed and of Abraham's seed. Those will be allowed by God=Lord Jesus Christ to go in and out of the Holy City of Israel's gates and will be allowed to eat of the fruit from the tree of eternal life. God=Lord Jesus Christ will rule Israel and all of the other nations on earth like in Heaven and His kingdom will never end. It is written.
