RIP NIL | EA Sports Paying Schools | Wild Marathon Runners

This week on Craft Brewed Sports:

EA Sports drops a bomb: schools will get paid based on how often fans play as them in College Football 26. We debate which small school deserves the love. Then, the NCAA settles the House lawsuit, officially letting schools pay athletes directly while putting the nail in the coffin for real NIL deals. We explain what this means for college sports and where it goes next.

Plus:

• The Daddy Ball spin-off is born 🍻

• Sip, Chug, Drainpour: Cereal milk edition 🥛

• Tennis was… actually watchable? 🎾

• New Mexico says peeing in water coolers isn’t a crime 🚫💦

• Darin Ruf sues the Reds ⚾️

• NBA Finals villain talk + Jason Kidd rumors 🏀

• Finland accidentally calls up a 51-year-old soccer player 🤯
