Message: [QUOTE="kingottoiii, post: 294784"] What areas would ESPN really be missing in the NE? In the Boston area they have BC. In NYC they have SU, Duke, and UNC. They are missing Philly. And in Balt/DC they have MD. Also by passing on BE BBall ESPN dy default creates more interest for the ACC in those markets. IMO in three of those four NE markets the ACC is greater than the BE. So why dilute the market by taking on BE BBall as well? Philly really is the only issue, but is Philly worth the cost of obtaining BE FB and BBall rights? If NBC really wants to get into college sports they will want BBall too for content. Why would they or ESPN want to share a weak product? [/QUOTE]
