00:03 Sports special Rick Harowitz of the $1.3 trillion business of sports.
00:07 We're Sports News Minute.
00:09 All the talk about the Saudi soccer and Messi in Miami, it's big.
00:14 But the Premier League still the king and
00:15 we don't need any reminders about week one viewership.
00:18 A 40% from the year before according to Sky Sports, 2.5 million fans and
00:24 an average minute audience streaming wise for Peacock,
00:28 nearly a million which is unheard of.
00:30 Bottom line is continued excitement about the Premier League,
00:34 relegation, promotion, all of those issues in the beginning of the season on August
00:38 11, all combined to make the Premier League really exciting.
00:42 Especially with the idea of the Olympics only a year and
00:46 a half away and the World Cup shortly thereafter.
00:49 The player movement, PSG, La Liga, other leagues and teams around the globe,
00:54 important but nothing, nothing as far as television is concerned,
00:59 like the Premier League.
