Georgie56 2972 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 3 minutes ago, JTT said: ESPN has the major 4 sports leagues - NFL, NBA, MLB, & NHL, plus college sports. Is this the first time that one network has all of the major sports in recent years? ESPN/ABC has all four leagues for a time in the early 2000s.

I imagine they're using this as a bluff tactic to get more money from cable/satellite providers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCAUTVNBC10 407 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I don't think this service is replacing the linear cable/satellite service, just running along side it. That makes more sense if the goal is to capture the cord cutters that ran away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 5125 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I know Doris Burke is polarizing, but I like her enough. But listening to Doc Rivers 3 hours a night, up to 3 or 4 nights a week, during the postseason? Goodness. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
