On today’s episode, co-hosts Ellen and Steph are back with more on the latest of COVID-19 in sports, but today they’re zooming out to discuss some bigger picture impacts of this latest surge. From teams essentially grabbing players off the street to leagues putting profits over people *eye roll* El and Steph get into all of it.
Thank you to FanDuel for sponsoring today’s episode! Somehow there’s only one (!!!) NFL Sunday remaining in 2021, but it’s not too late to get in the game thanks to our GIST-exclusive fantasy contest. Visit fanduel.com/gist to play now and submit your picks before Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. You got this.
And a big shoutout to Jane’s for also supporting today’s pod! The World Juniors begin on Sunday, and we can’t wait to see Team Canada in action, especially because the goalies will be wearing masks repping some of our favorite Canadian women hockey players. You know we love it. To learn more about how Janes is leveling the playing field, visit hockeycanada.ca/ALLIN.
