Welcome to the Business of Sports newsletter. Some of us are still in Paris. We’ve enjoyed the Olympics — especially the Americans among us who watched Team USA pull away in the medal count. And there’s still Saturday’s men’s basketball final matching host France against the US. (Wembanyama vs. Embiid anyone?)

And if you aren’t yet signed up to receive this newsletter, you can do so here. Send your feedback here.

Happy Friday, folks. It’s Randall. I hope summer 2024 has been marvelous for you all. If you’re reading this, I’m assuming you’ve been enjoying the Paris Olympics just as much as I have. They have been spectacular.
