Now this Bloomberg sports update, it was kind of a mixed bag for the Giants on Christmas Eve. They went toe to toe with the Vikings on the field in Minnesota on Saturday in the end though, the Vikings made the big play late. How about a 61 yard field goal as time expired. A career best kick from Greg Joseph and that's enough to sink the G men final score 27 to 24.

The big showdown game on Christmas Eve was in Dallas. The cowboys end up beating the eagles 40 to 34 and that is a big win for the cowboys. They still have an opportunity to win the NFC east, but they trail the eagles still by two games. How about the commanders? We talked about them. They lost in San Francisco 37 to 20 San Francisco has rolled off 8 straight wins. The commanders are winless in their last three games. Jay glazer of Fox Sports says the jets are preparing to move on from quarterback Zach Wilson once they get to the off season. There's basketball at MSG on Christmas Day for the Knicks.

It's a $44 billion epic mystique by mosque. And I think right now it's really been a quick sense situation. One that I've thinks is pulling Tesla along with it. Tesla stock has been hammered this year and I've says investor patience is running thin still he thinks Tesla is placed in the EV market is solid. Our thing is the one of the most transformational companies along with Apple. But he says Musk's performance at Twitter is, quote, a category 5 storm that's Musk inflicted that needs to end. It's hurt the brand of Musk, which has hurt the brand of passive. Joan Donoghue Bloomberg radio.

I would say that the biggest theme that emerged is the tentacles really that the war in Ukraine had. So we have obviously volodymyr zelensky is on the list. But then when you start to look into other industries, you see people in the finance world, like Dolly Singh, there was the architect of the sanctions regime against Putin. He's on our list. And then I would say it was also sort of hard to avoid what's going on in crypto and the winter. So we had some familiar names like Serena Williams, who's raising money, including investing in some crypto stuff.
