Message: [QUOTE="Stern, post: 294672, member: 527"] The BE has no leverage. ESPN will let them walk before overpaying. If ESPN let the NHL walk I am 99.9% sure they will let the BE walk. And with WV, SU, and Pitt basketball leaving losing the BE basketball rights is no big deal. They will just put on more ACC and Big 12 games. I believe Comcast and ESPN will come to the BE with their best offers and the BE will take the best one and that's that. This notion that the "NEW" Big East is so hot and "must see" that they can play the sides off each other to get a "good" or "great" deal is insane! And if anyone believes it I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell ya. [/QUOTE]
