Eben Novy-Williams and Michael Barr are joined by Bloomberg’s New York City bureau chief Jason Kelly to discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including an NFL memo to all 32 teams laying out its refund policy should the 2020 season be disrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic. The league will allow fans a full refund, or future credit, for any game that is cancelled or held without spectators because of public health concerns. Alongside the cancellation of this season's international games, and pay cuts at the league office, the refund policy shows increased contingency planning by the country's richest sports league. Also discussed is the Premier Lacrosse League's plan to hold a 15-day, fully-quarantined event at the end of July, and the Walt Disney Co.'s much-anticipated earnings report, which provided the first glimpse of how ESPN is handling this period without live sports.
