I recall the Hawks having a fricking national TV deal with TBS back in the day. It's unbelievable to think about that now.



when the T in TBS owns the team, why is that so unbelievable?

just the nature of TV contracts nowadays. TBS was a basic cable standard by that point, but for a more recent example you didn't see Bob Johnson having BobCats games on BET.

More to the point, you'd never see big cable station (i.e. non local affiliate) put one team on exclusively.
