Knicks Owner Boots Fan for `Sell the Team' Comment

Scott Soshnick, Michael Barr and Eben Novy-Williams discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including New York Knicks owner James Dolan removing a fan from Madison Square Garden for shouting at him to sell the basketball team. The fan asked why he would be removed for making the comment, prompting Dolan to say that it was rude. MSG in a statement said its policy states that anyone being disrespectful will be asked not to return. Also talked about is the U.S. women's soccer team's equal pay lawsuit against the U.S. Soccer Federation, and the landmark antitrust college sports case in which a judge opened the door for universities to offer student-athletes more in terms of education-related compensation. Also touched on is the money side of the trade of wide receiver Antonio Brown to the Raiders from Pittsburgh Steelers.
