Episode notes

College football has been the best thing to ever happen to the NFL for basically its whole existence. The biggest players getting paid in the NCAA right now with the sort of weird way that the booster stuff works is like $2 million. So I don't think they'll be competing directly or in the same order of magnitude. It'll be really interesting to see how it as players start to get paid more where it finds it's putting in the landscape.

The NFL — it’s almost synonymous with America today. And its history is a fascinating lens to explore the nation’s development over the last 100 years, from WWII to TV and suburbs to the Internet and social media. What began as a quasi-illicit league in small midwestern towns is now the single largest media property in the world today by revenue. And whether you watch football or not, this is one incredible business story. Acquired is ready for some football — let’s kick this Season off right!
