Two-hour documentary.

”Jeremy Bloom investigates the NCAA, the billion-dollar industry facing a seismic rules shift allowing athletes to make endorsement money.”

They just said the ncaa is a Fortune 500 company in terms of revenue except that they don’t pay their employees. Obviously a misunderstanding.
