quote:

"Designed to serve the busy morning schedule of sports fans, The ‘Lights will be produced as a 20-minute sports report, and will not feature an on-camera anchor or set. The show will use a unique presentation of simultaneous video clips, graphics and voiceovers to deliver the scores and information. The ‘Lights will repeat every 20 minutes, from 7-9 a.m. ET, and will be updated as necessary. “We are very excited to launch NBC Sports Network’s new programming schedule,” said Jon Miller, president of programming for NBC Sports and NBC Sports Network. “The ‘Lights will serve as a catalyst for our new programming lineup, and will quickly provide sports fans all of the scores and highlights they crave as they start their day.”

So Sportscenter might have some competition. We will see if it's any good.

sounds like they want to avoid dealing with ESPN wanna be celebrity hosts and are going for a more Headline News sports update format.

I remember this thread from last week, thanks for bumping it and reminding me to check this out. I like that they are offering a distinct option to the Sportscenter model. I'm interested to see if it catches on at all.

It's going to take a lot of interest from the internet (message board/twitter) community to promote the show into success.

Way better then sportscenter imo
