Sure, @OregonFootball is undefeated and ranked No. 1, but the Ducks' most impressive unit IMO is its video team. Today Club Sportico is an ode to Pavlov's Dog, Gladiator, @CoachDanLanning, and the best sports video series currently on the internet 👇 club.sportico.com/p/the-perfect-…

Wait, so @GothamFC is owned by the granddaughter of the @Giants co-owner... but the *Jets* are now using "Gotham City Football"?
The Jets have unveiled a new locker room that features: • 230 sq. ft. 3D Jets logo • Sauna with sound system • Barbershop with refurbished chairs from the 1950s
It's been a rough few months for some of the major men's players unions. Here's one theory on why. And a possible explanation for why it feels like the women's unions (@TheWNBPA and @nwsl_players) are having more success...
NEW: Found public records showing Polymarket spent about $1 million on Meta last fall for ads targeting U.S. users—even though it couldn't actually offer its prediction markets in the states.
DII and DIII**
There are nine DIII schools that are choosing to share revenue with athletes, according to the CSC. It's a lot of hockey, but some others sprinkled in... Here's that list, via @Sportico and @LevAkabas.
Today's Club Sportico is written by @matt_p32. Should @MLB fans take a page out of the @NBA fan playbook? club.sportico.com/p/its-ok-to-bu…
We obviously haven't seen the Penn State x Elevate deal -- Penn State is a public school but doesn't always act like it--but this guy has. Here's what he has to say... w/ @DanielLibit sportico.com/leagues/colleg…
The CBA gives the @NFLPA (or the @NFL) a ten-day window to dismiss the non-injury grievance arbitrator. That 10-day window is July 10-20. So likely not related to this week's news cycle, but certainly could be related to the ruling itself...
SCOOP: The @NFLPA this week dismissed Sidney Moreland, the arbitrator that ruled in the @NFL's favor in the JC Tretter matter this is getting attention via @PabloTorre. More @Sportico via me and @McCannSportsLaw 👇 sportico.com/law/analysis/2…

He would get the full tax deduction immediately on assets in his hedge fund anyway (although have to pass an IRS litmus of not controlling the funds - if such rules apply to billionaires anymore)
I think my favorite part of this story is that Ackman's $10 million donation offer was actually a $10 million investment into his hedge fund, with 5% going to the Hall of Fame each year....

I'm told @TennisHalloFame board has declined the (sizable) donation Bill Ackman offered over the weekend...
.@NBA commissioner Adam Silver said yesterday that local TV uncertainty was still a hurdle to expansion. @crupicrupicrupi and I wrote about this exact shift in rhetoric back in March, when we first heard Silver say it. That @Sportico story 👇 sportico.com/leagues/basket…
This is wild, per @DanielLibit. Maryland's new AD gets a bonus equal to his base salary if the Terps revenue grows by $50 million. But that "revenue" is based off NCAA accounting, which includes student fees and institutional support as "revenue"... sportico.com/leagues/colleg…
