Here are @Sportico's valuations of all 153 teams in the big five major U.S. leagues... Wild to see the @NHL (grey) mixing relatively evenly with @MLB (green) #1 🤠 @Cowboys $12.8B #153 ⚜️ @cfmontreal $450 million

SCOOP: @weareangelcity has new investors, including NBA star Chris Paul (@CP3) and Hong Kong billionaire Solina Chau. Details at @Sportico, w/ @soshnick : sportico.com/business/team-…

Electronic Arts is going private, meanwhile there may or may not be other deals afoot: sportico.com/leagues/colleg…

I'm increasingly feeling that private equity/credit style deals eventually become rampant, but they do so hidden within services or rights agreements. Deals that look like MMR agreements--upfront cash with rev-share on back end. Elevate can certainly offer those.

NEW: It's been 15 weeks since @OneElevate_ announced its PE-backed College Sports Investment Initiative, claiming two schools had already signed on and would be announced "soon." And yet, still no names. @novy_williams and I ponder why for @Sportico👇 sportico.com/leagues/colleg…

BREAKING: The @Patriots have reached an agreement to sell two small minority stakes at a $9+ billion valuation. Buyers are PE giant Sixth Street (3%) and Dean Metropoulos (5%). More w/ @kbadenhausen and @soshnick at @Sportico 👇 sportico.com/business/team-…

We've talked a lot on the @Sportico podcast about the rush of new human @NFL investors following the league's new PE rules. I thought this comment from Marc Ganis on today's show was interesting: PE may be helping on the back end, not the front end...
