Something missing in this piece is the ability to be both a Zionist and to be against the current leaders of the Israeli state. Believing in the idea of Israel and being pro-Palestine are far from mutually exclusive and I don’t see that represented here.

5. cram all the games into one five-hour window per week, which limits the ability of fans to watch teams aside from their own
6. Make the biggest investment in a show that is counterprogramming to those games

3. Kill longform written (The Word) and video (The Movement) series, which provided storytelling/culture building around teams/markets/players/owners/execs
4. Put the games on a streaming service nobody has, which limits fan interest
