How do you feel about the Pat McAfee and Stephen A. Smith games that I’m sure are coming soon?
Related, well, from a media aspect anyways
Yep same here. The same sites I’ve been using for what feels like decades now have been shut down and I had to dive deep to find a new one last year. Brutal
No one should be happy about this
NFL & NCAA football (P4) are the only 2 sports your guaranteed to make money no matter what TV market your in.
Every other sport, even NBA, NHL MLB etc. local TV deals rarely make money unless your in a top 3 market.
ESPN buying NFLN just means that we will NEVER get a single team TV out of market package.
Which are likely to get out MLB, NHL & NBA after this RSN collapse
I wonder if this deal comes with any kind of clause that ESPN can’t put Red zone behind an ESPN plus subscription paywall and that it must continue to be a part of the cable package
Until the contract ends yes. But once the TV contract is done. It will likely merge into some new ESPN+ deal
Is that part of fox still non- Disney? I know Disney got a big chunk of fox a few years back, they also own espn iirc.
Somebody go dig up Teddy Roosevelt.
No. When Disney bought out Fox. It was virtually only 20th/21st Century fox entertainment aka the TV shows and Movies/ FX and Nat Geo
FOX Corp still is separate and owns the Fox News and Sports channels
Thanks to the Supreme courts actually enforcing Monopoly laws for once
