Ya, that was it ...
I liked thier "SportCenter" better.

What is Fred Hickman doing now ?

Great! Another round of dilution that's going to cost subs a ton. Now FSN1 will over-bid for the NBA and pass the cost to the providers who will then jack up our rates ... again... When will it end?

 

[Jimbo]

Maybe they can get Hockey back on a network that people know and can find ...

I would love to see something that show nothing but highlights of the previous day.

I think some of the rights for college football comes up in 2015 and 2016 like C-USA, MAC. If I'm FOX, I jump on getting those rights. If I have to overpay, I would. You need inventory and programming to compete with ESPN.
