private equity needs the nfl more than the nfl needs private equity. the nfl does not need more capital. the nba, ma i superior league baseball, major league soccer, they were all in greater need of capital than the nfl. dial corp, the pe firm, does have a carry agreement with the nba, so this would be a little similar to that, but at the end of the day, if any of these pe firms object to what the nfl wants, i have no doubt the nfl could substitute a different pe firm. >> and, michael, the greater point as we were discussing with alex is that the nfl is holding all the cards here, and it's fleck flexing a degrey of muscle that it has that the other leagues that simply don't. >> absolutely. nfl is the most profitable sports league in the world. it's almost impossible to lose money. none of the teams lost money last year. the nfl is growing its revenues in the high single digits. it's going to continue to do so with with its massive tv contracts, which, oh, by the way, it can opt out of in six years. it's streamed, which is different. last year the nfl w

these nfl teams average -- the average valuation of nfl team is $5.93 billion.you open it up so everyone can buy into that, it can drive the valuation down. some of these firms may be wanting to buy and sell quickly the nfl wants to maintain its financial stability. how you do that is by pre-approving some of these firms were going to be able to buy in. maybe they sell. maybe they don't. . that is the strategy behind it thus far. scarlet:scarlet: what is the common thread between the different preapproved firms? randall: a good portion have a history in sports investment. our toes has a history. sixth street has a history. a good portion of them either have deep pockets or a deep history in sport investments. scarlet: new look at private equity, they are active in the npa -- the nba, european soccer. nfl is proposing a 10% stake to the firms. the nba allows 30%. why so low at 10%? randall: and a fellow owners are more conservative. it is that simple. they want to protect their investment. the firms that are in our people they trust. you don't want to allow to mu

talking about the nfl.e just learned the nfl will allow a small list of preapproved private equity firms to buy up to 10% of a given franchise, though the nfl itself may take a small cut of their gains. given how dominant the nfl is in ratings, there is a lot of interest in what it means for the league. luckily we have one of the best owners in the league with us tonight, clark hunt. he is the chairman and ceo of the kansas city chiefs. welcome back. >> thanks very much, jim. it's great to be on with you this afternoon. >> it is great to see you again, sir. you are on the special committee of owners looking into this possibility. you are a family person. i regard the league as family. why would you want an entity that is truly about money to maybe interrupt or be part of the family? >> well, you are exactly right in that our community has done a lot of work over the past year. this is something we've been considering as a league for five years. when some institutions started investing in other sports league

this has been happening in the nfl.ou'll see occasionally that we'll be a player that will be holding his hand to his ear with the helmet on and trying to listen to what the coaches saying to him. so that's going to now happen in the college game. and it is a direct result of the michigan cheating scandal where you had the signals being stolen. so it used to be hand signals or on they'll sideline the players. other players would hold up cards. and those certain cards that they would hold up would tell the offense what the next play is very rudimentary old school communication again, that's over. i think it's a reaction again to that michigan cheating scandal where they were stealing the signs. that's not good. it's not good. what's football? these are 18 to 22 three-year-olds, but yes. now, they will be able to communicate via 20 21st century, if not 20th century technology and there's also in the nfl, i new kickoff rule and a ban on what's called a hip drop tackle. what does that walk us through these changes? >> the o

it's been on the nfl side. the nfl hasn't needed the money. of teams has risen so much. for instance, if a team sells for, say, $6 billion, $1.4 billion is your debt max, right. so that means you need like $4.6 billion of equity. so, you know, that's a lot of equity to raise, particularly if you're talking about small stakes from limited partners who will have no stake in how the team is run. the nfl has hesitated because the nfl is very conservative. they want to make sure that the financing of teams is very secure. they don't want a situation where all of a sudden an investor has to pull their money out. they're very thorough on investigating where the money is coming from and how secure it is. >> yeah. they don't want competing interests with limited partners, versus the interests of the team. however, with 10% stake, as you point out, it would be more risk averse to some of those concerns. i read that there were some rules for the potential would-be buyers including no governance rights for the private equity firms, no preferred equity inv

i could see the nfl approaching that. >> the main way -- an nfl owner makes a lot of money is by buyinghise and then reselling it as a multiple of what they paid, right? i mean that's how sports owners generally make the most money. >> i think that for many years that was the case. but that's begun to change. these teams themselves now are very profitable businesses because ever since you put in this salary cap, you're limiting what the players can make. the players now get about 49% of revenue. so all of thesefu funfl teams a very profitable businesses. it's just a question of how profitable. >> here in this particular case, the point i was trying to drive at, the idea of allowing investments from private equity, you are opening up vast new reservoirs of capital to invest in these teams. >> absolutely. >> that's manna from heaven. >> it sure is. to your point, i think there's a very, very tiny chance this is not going to happen. >> mike, great to see you. thank you. >>> nfl season getting ready to kick off, teams are ramping up cybersecurity to protect themselves against growing cyber

the nfl is very conservative.ters when it come -- adopter, but i wouldn't bet against the pith just given their track record and, ultimately, makes financial success over time owners would see the same thing. stuart: but they're not likely to do this in the near future, are they? >> i don't think it's going to happen in the near-term horizon, but like i said, if you would have said 30 years ago they'd have ownership stake thes in tennis, golf, formula 1, you would have thought that was crazy. stuart: jake bewet, we appreciate it. thanks. mark tepper, you're in favor. >> i'm in favor for it bringing in money for my client, first and foremost. very selfishly, i absolutely love this because i and a handful of my clients already invest in a private equity the fund that owns professional sports franchises excluding the nfl. now, the issue is that fund is closed because they've already gotten all the money they need. now that the f if nfl is going to be a possibility, that fund will reopen, and i have a number of additi

we're going to look at the rise and the dangers of the drug that killed him and is an nfl return for colin kaepernick in the works, is former coach says it's possible, but it may not be in the position you'd expect welcome to laura coates live. >> i'm audie cornish in for laura tonight, and we're going to talk about this inflection point for the two presidential campaigns kamala harris shares the stage with the person she replaced at the top of the democratic ticket. gop nominee donald trump breaks out the binders as he tries to talk policy while behind the scenes tries to shake up his campaign is republican allies have been all but begging him to ditch the insults and go after harris on the issues. and at first glance, it looked like he may have gotten the message. there he was with his table full of grocery props and eggs and cheerios and forget a teleprompter. he had a binder and actually look down to read it pitching to voters is planned to double down on tariffs and eliminate taxes on social security benefits where it felt like vintage trump was when he veered into false claims

the nfl has voted 31-1.y the bengals being the lone dissenters to approve, then, private equity being allowed to invest then, in nfl franchises. up to 10%. they can own up to 10% then, of any franchise for passive ownership. that is very important. that will mean ultimately that they have no voting rights when it comes to the ownership structure here or have any ability to have any real decision-making ability then with regards to these teams. at present, you still have the franchises can be owned up to 3%. and if a firm buys into the team it must hold onto that vestment for quite some time. a maximum of six years or so. interesting to point out another story that you've been speaking about. that's lowe's changing some of its diversity, equity and inclusion practices. this comes among legal attacks. they actually have to scale back some of their dei measures as well in the company then. internal memo shared by lowe's saying that its executive leadership said the retailer had begun reviewing that program in j

do they talk about taylor or mainly nfl?— is it? do they talk about taylor or mainly nfl?e is a very small amount of taylor _ mainly nfl? there is a very small amount of taylor swift _ mainly nfl? there is a very small| amount of taylor swift information and it is mostly nfl and interviews as well. there is a very, very small amount of mentions of taylor swift. i would say it was the fourth biggest show in the first quarter of this year in the us. it's dropped in quarter two to 14, so in some senses it has perhaps already peaked. part of the plan by wondery is to make sure it is translated into a bunch of languages like german, spanish and portuguese, because that's where they see there being quite a lot of growth for this show. i they see there being quite a lot of growth for this show.— they see there being quite a lot of growth for this show. i suppose the more broad — growth for this show. i suppose the more broad point— growth for this show. i suppose the more broad point is— growth for this show. i suppose the more broad point is how _ growth for this show. i suppose

[ laughter ] [ cheering and applause ] >> adam, conservatives are kind of like -- they own the mma world, right? that seems like a conservative thing. do you think the democrats will be able to take football? >> no. at the dnc they kept saying they were the new vision of the future and their first speaker or first guest was stevie wonder.

next, the big change in the nfl. >> league owners have voted to allow private equity firms to buy upm. the firms won't have any real decision making power, but the new ownership rule was supported by 31 of the 32 teams. and speaking of the nfl, a big payday for the kelce brothers. >> jason and travis are proving talk is not cheap. the pair reportedly signed a podcast deal with amazon's wondery that's worth more than $100 million. the contract for their new heights podcast runs for three years. meanwhile, travis is now part owner of a racehorse named swift delivery. the co-owner insists the horse is not named after kelce's girlfriend. i beg to differ, though. all right. next. it's a good thing channing tatum is known for going shirtless because he apparently hates doing laundry. yes, he hates it so much. >> the magic mike star admits in a new interview he went a year without washing clothes, buying hundreds of new shirts instead. >> tatum says his simple style made it possible, saying the year 2000 your hair can grow 590 miles over your lifetime. it's in your nature to grow. nature's

more on this. >> people are confused a little bit in that the private equity model applied to the nfled to the nba is very different. it is more -- i would call it investment fund policy rather than private equity policy. classic private equity firms go in and buy companies and try to grow them and grow the revenues and earnings and globalize them. that's not the case with sports investments and will be done with specialized funds like arctos in existence today stand take limited partnership states and limited to 10%. and i think 30% in aggregate in the nba deal and would be passive stakes and really made to open up the market for folks that want to invest in sports properties and they've created and asette class. it's a little bit of a misnomer to say it's private equity buy-in. it's a passive partnership position so that more people can have access and capital in the booming sports business. vonnie: joining us for more is rhonda williams, u.s. news u.s. news and sports and was in minneapolis covering the report. who was there that might have anticipated being there in terms of poten

one question is, if the nfl is making the mandatory for the pros, why aren't they mandatory for kids? one potential drawback could be cost. each one of these rants about $70, $56 when bought in bulk for a team, many schools are already struggling with funding and the national athletic trainers association has said that such products come with little to no independent scientific evidence showing that they actually work the helmet head protection is really the last line of defense. the first thing to do is minimize number of head impacts that kids and other athletes are experiencing. >> one other potential drawback is the way it feels some nfl players saying it makes them feel top-heavy at times. all the research will continue to be done in the push to make the game safer, continues jessica, even if inventions like guardian caps make the game 1% safer, it's a step in the right direction while there's no question, it's still a violent game. all our reporting shows that the game is safer now than it's ever been coy, wire. >> thanks so much for that reporting over the next couple of months

we followed five nfl receivers and tight ends this year. and they did. they let us come behind the ropes. but we feel like we're not a distraction. we're just trying to show people how hard it is to play receiver in the nfl. how hard they practice, how much film they study, just as much as the quarterback. they get hit hard across the middle, and they pop right back up and go back and play the next play. so i think people will find it fascinating. i've always had a great appreciation for all the receivers that i play with. i'm not sure all the viewers know just how hard it is and what it takes. so we appreciate george and deebo and justin and devonte and amon-ra kind of letting us go behind the ropes. and it drops on netflix tonight, streams on netflix tonight so you can watch it tonight. and, we're excited about it. >> it's like like any good very moving sports documentary. you just get so invested in the players in a way that sometimes from a bird's eye advantage, you can't you don't. you know what i mean? you're just seeing. i used to laugh at my husb
