This will be interesting leverage when any agreements come up, given Comcast has multiple Comcast SportsNet markets. This could also play into negotations with networks like Versus (comcast owned).

While leverage may bring more to their negotations, my theory is that customers will lose. The more local networks owned by providers we have, the more contract disputes and "exclusive" situations (like CSN Philly) we will end up seeing.
