“I have a feeling, the Kelce’s are very good with social media, his brand is exploding and he’s on like six commercials now.”
“Los Angeles has always sold Hollywood and sunshine, there’s no question,” Cowherd added. “When you come to Los Angeles you’re gonna pay more taxes, the traffic is worse and they don’t always have the great team.
“LeBron [James] came here because of the brand, the entertainment. Teams sell what they sell. [New York] Yankees have to overpay you, but the Lakers have sold sunshine and potential revenue outside of basketball.
“Travis Kelce, a tight end, is on seven commercials. He’s on a vaccine commercial.”
