LeBron and Liverpool Win as Reds Oust Barcelona

Scott Soshnick, Michael Barr and Eben Novy-Williams discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including Liverpool Football Club's stunning victory to oust Barcelona from the Champions League. Liverpool's 4-0 victory (4-3 on aggregate) pushes the Reds to the final, where they'll meet either fellow Premier League club Tottenham or Dutch team Ajax. Liverpool is controlled by Boston Red Sox owner John Henry, and its investors include basketball star LeBron James. Also discussed is the Los Angeles Rams desire to have St. Louis taxpayers pay a portion of a previous settlement that stemmed from the football team's relocation, and the steps female hockey players are taking to ensure a viable league.
