Can someone explain to me how copyright, something meant for creative works, is allowed to be applied to athletes playing a fucking game? Like the athletes themselves holding the copyrights would be one thing, but the fact that they’re held by some crusty old English dudes who can’t kick a ball without throwing their back out is crazy

Isn't the copyright specifically for the recordings/streams the league produces? I don't actually know if it's illegal to offer a stream using your own camera. Almost certainly against stadium rules, but as you said, they shouldn't be able to claim copyright in that case.

Ah yes, the production of the broadcasts is creative work
