"The NBA has been very unfair to the Miami Heat. That Terry Rozier deal, nasty business, I told them 'watch out for the gambling,' but those leagues, they love it, they can't get enough parlays. It's very unfair what they did to Miami, the most unfair. Great team, the best." - Trump after meeting me

Two things:

1) unfortunately soccer rights especially are super geolocked, lots that I can’t get because I’m not in the UK, so I have to go basically with the only US ones. It’s very annoying and I am not sure of a solution for this. I’m sorry I don’t have a better answer.

2) who tf is Parmar? 🀣
