Later, sports business analyst Rick Horrow, known as "The Sports Professor," joins the show to discuss the extensive logistics behind hosting the NFL Draft in Green Bay, viewership trends in the NBA Playoffs, expected revenue from the upcoming Kentucky Derby, and the global reach of the F1 Grand Prix in Miami.
