Scott Soshnick and Eben Novy-Williams discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including Magic Johnson's decision to depart as president of basketball operations for the Los Angeles Lakers. Johnson, a former Lakers star, said he was happier prior to taking the job and that all he really cares about is his relationship with team owner Jeanie Buss, whom he considers a sister. Also discussed is the Premier Lacrosse League tapping Adidas as its official shoe and apparel partner in what co-founders Paul and Michael Rabil called the biggest apparel deal in pro lacrosse history. As part of the multiyear deal Adidas will also buy commercial time during NBC broadcasts and finance original programming.
