Description

Welcome to THE Sports Law Podcast! We keep you informed on everything at the intersection of sports and the law. Dan Lust (⁠@SportsLawLust⁠), Justin Mader (@MaderLaw), and John Nucci (@JNucci23) to discuss the latest in the world of Sports Law.

The PGA has announced today the merger between itself, LIV, and DP making a new golfing organization. (0:26) This newly merged group will be funded by the Public Interest Fund which was the financial backbone of the LIV Golf Tour. Given this new merger, this could spell the end of the anti-competitive litigation that is currently ongoing between the PGA and LIV. However, as John Nucci points out, this could open a new can of worms as they may have created a giant monopoly that could be challenged in court or by the federal government.

Colts player Isaiah Rodgers has been identified as the player accused of placing over 100 bets on sports including Colt's games. (21:35) This is another in a plethora of suspensions that have occurred in the NFL regarding their sports betting policy. Earlier this spring multiple players were suspended either 6 games or a full year, yet none seem to stack up to the alleged facts surrounding Rodgers. It is possible that this could be the biggest suspension for betting we have seen in the NFL to date.

Ja Morant may soon learn his fate on the length of suspension that will be handed down by the NBA following the second Instagram live video of Morant brandishing a gun. (30:52) Recently, rumors have circulated that the number of games will be in the 30-40 game range. A small rumor has also been circulating that Ja Mornat’s team is alleging that the gun Morant had in the latest video was a toy gun. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has expressed that he will be waiting until after the NBA Finals to hand down the suspension.
