But the good news is the network would have some serious spending money it hasn’t had in years. Take the $2 billion that it is now giving the NFL, subtract say $350 million for (NFL) rights to highlights, and that still leaves a billion and a half dollars for ESPN to play. ESPN could go on a spending spree targeting CBS’ college football deal with the SEC, a Big 12 deal, baseball post-season, rights to NHL hockey, EPL soccer and a whole buffet table of other properties that would prove beneficial in its negotiations with distributors who would want to lower their sub fees.
If true this would be the most ESPN thing ever.
You're having expense issues due to your large live tv contracts so you dump the most popular sport in America so that you can sign other less popular sports to live tv contracts?
Lol that company will go bankrupt in 10 years. Guaranteed.
