Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@SportsLawLust)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠and Mike Kravchenko (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Find him on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) bring you the latest updates in sports law as we find ourselves with yet another a jam-packed week across the board.

Dan and Mike kick off the episode by diving into the ongoing Olympic gymnastics controversy involving Jordan Chiles. The dispute centers on Chiles' bronze medal, which is now under review by the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The duo dissects the legal complexities surrounding the appeal process, including the new video evidence that could overturn the initial decision, and the broader implications for Olympic scoring disputes.

Next, they discuss Haason Reddick's shocking trade request saga with the New York Jets. Despite being recently traded to the Jets from the Eagles, Reddick is now requesting another trade due to ongoing contract disputes. Dan and Mike explore the unprecedented nature of this situation, comparing it to past NFL player holdouts and the potential fallout for both Reddick and the Jets.

The conversation then shifts to Marvin Harrison Jr.'s legal battle with Fanatics. Fanatics has sued Harrison Jr. for breach of contract, claiming he is bound by a term sheet that Harrison Jr. asserts was never properly executed. Dan breaks down the possible legal defenses and what this case could mean for athlete endorsement deals and contract law in sports.

Mike leads the discussion on Dearica Hamby's federal lawsuit against the Las Vegas Aces and the WNBA. Hamby alleges discrimination and retaliation after revealing her pregnancy, leading to her trade from the Aces to the Sparks. The guys analyze the WNBA's prior investigation into the Aces' conduct, which resulted in significant penalties, and the potential legal outcomes of Hamby's lawsuit.

Finally, the episode closes on a somber note as Dan and Mike discuss the tragic drowning of CrossFit athlete Lazar Dukic during a competition. They examine the safety protocols—or lack thereof—that led to the incident, and the broader legal implications for event organizers in extreme sports.

Throughout the episode, Dan and Mike also share updates on their latest sports law bets and offer a special giveaway for listeners. This episode is packed with some unprecedented stories and information for the people! Let us know your thoughts.
