Pablo Torre Finds Out

Just because Steve Ballmer, Mark Walter and Vivek Ramaswamy are rich... doesn't mean they're always that smart. And just because investigating them is hard... doesn't mean the truth can't still prevail.

First, they came for the conspiracist Alex Jones — and won. Now, "America's Finest News Source" is trying to make The Onion Sports Bowl a real thing, on ESPN, in the name of (satirical) journalism. CEO Ben Collins takes Pablo behind the scenes of an uphill battle, a ridiculous writers' room and a last-ditch effort... with some demanding star power.

As Major League Baseball heads for a lockout, peacemaker John Skipper and capitalist David Samson reunite on the new rules of engagement: What are the dealbreakers? How long can both sides fight before broadcasters intervene? And are the Brewers and Rays evidence that the Dodgers don't need to get reined-in after all? Plus: what baseball owners and A.I. CEOs have in common, why more playoffs are good for everyone, how Elon Musk getting into sports could save America… and whether Pablo ever washes that cardigan.
