Hype, Not Guilt Needed To Push Women's Sports to Next Level
Earlier this month we looked into how football clubs struggle running men's and women's teams. This week, we have a frank interview about where the women's sports boom goes from here, and we bring you a case study in how to structure a takeover of a team on the up (or down). This week's Odd Lots newsletter also hosted Michael Caley, writer of the Expecting Goals, to chat about football financing, and in The Deal, A-Rod and Jason Kelly sat down with Gotham FC owner Carolyn Tisch Blodgett.

How Football Has Become a Hotbed of Financial Engineering
Hello and welcome to the newsletter, a grab bag of daily content from the Odd Lots universe. Sometimes it's us, Joe Weisenthal and Tracy Alloway, bringing you our thoughts on the most recent developments in markets, finance and the economy. And sometimes it's contributions from our network of expert guests and sources. Whatever it is, we promise it will always be interesting. If you like chatting with us, check out the Odd Lots Discord, where you can hang out and talk with us and with other listeners 24/7. Today, we're excited to bring you the thoughts of Michael Caley, writer of the Expecting Goals newsletter and co-host of the Double Pivot podcast, plus his co-host Mike Goodman. Both Mike and Michael have worked in soccer analytics and media for over a decade and you may remember them from their appearance on the podcast last year discussing why Saudi Arabia is spending millions on soccer stars.
