Tom Brady improves, Fox Sports lawsuit blowout, NBC and Amazon's NBA announcers coming into focus

Hello once again. I apologize for the delay in columns. My last post was my sports media predictions column and already, one prediction seems to be in the tank has Tom Brady’s agent, Don Yee, has told Sports Business Journal’s Ben Fischer that the Fox Sports analyst has no plans in leaving his job before his 10-year contract is up. It came while Brady was in Detroit for the Washington Commanders-Lions Divisional Playoff game and there were comments that while Brady was heavily involved in the Las Vegas Raiders coaching search (Brady is a limited partner of the team), he was also calling the game for Fox which is a walking, talking conflict of interest.

However, Fox laughed it off the conflict of interest and noted that Brady can still do his job.

This likely will not be the last time we’ll hear of this as the 72-year-old Pete Carroll was hired by the Raiders and he probably won’t be going past the three years that he’s signed for with the team.
