Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin joins Colin to discuss his strategy to take the world’s leading licensed sports merchandiser into gambling and NFT’s, why he got out of his ownership stakes in the Sixers, why he hasn’t sold the company, what sells in Europe that doesn’t work in the U.S., if he’s ever regretted selling a company, why he doesn’t want “yes” men around, and how he stays on the front end of cultural trends as he gets older.

Colin reacts to the news that LeBron James has chosen the Philadelphia 76ers as his landing spot for the 2026 NBA season. He argues that choosing a championship ready team makes sense for LeBron at this stage of his career and there’s nothing wrong with LeBron ring chasing. He compares the move to Tom Brady going to Tampa, rather than KD joining a title winning Warriors team.

Colin’s top takes of the week.

First, he’s joined by Danny Parkins, host of “First Things First” on FS1

They start with Spain upsetting France in the World Cup semifinal in a game where they dominated defensively and smothered France’s vaunted attack and has the potential to turn in the greatest defensive performance ever in a World Cup (3:30).

They make their predictions for the impact of this World Cup on the future of soccer’s popularity in America (12:00) and agree that the passion and consumption of the World Cup shown by American fans has been absolutely remarkable (22:30). 

Then, he’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight” on the Volume.

They discuss the Jaylen Brown trade and Colin argues Brown’s presence was problematic for the Celtics when Jayson Tatum is on the floor (30:00).

They move to the World Cup and compare the artistry of both soccer and basketball, and discuss what went wrong for the USMNT against Belgium (38:00).

Finally, they discuss LeBron’s free agency and entertain the idea of LeBron joining the star-studded Sixers (53:30).
