Somehow, the TikTokization of sports media has gone the exact opposite way I thought it would. I figured that SportsCenter would turn into a 5-minute FYP of slam dunks and smash zooms of pundits.

Putting the entire NBA on prime video would be fantastic and I'd definitely watch more games

If it's anything like MLS (which I doubt the NBA would do, either way), it would be its own subscription.

Based on what little I know, I think Oswald did it alone and got lucky relatively speaking. Not sure why getting their opinions on this matter.

Unless JFK was pulling out of Vietnam, I'm not sure what his assassination changes in the long run anyway and it's well outside this subforum's scope to guess.

We got INTO Vietnam under LBJ :ssh:

I applaud Around the Horn for not using the same talking heads they've used for 20 years, but the new folks don't have as big of personalities.

Everything is moving over to Netflix. Besides Smackdown which is going to go back to USA, and I guess NXT is on CW lol.

But all of the back catalog of Smackdown and NXT and everything else on the network is going to be put on Netflix, along with PPV's streaming there.

The WWE Network will be on Netflix outside of the US. Peacock's deal with WWE isn't up for another year, IIRC.

The WWE-Peacock deal lasts until 2026, according to wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer.

This is probably really bad news for the NBA's hoped for massive national broadcast deal since this is essentially a merger of the major sports broadcasters

It's not so much a merger as much as a relative of the original Hulu, where each company has equity in the streamer.

Bally Sports/DSG is not going away

tl,dr:

-Sinclair will no longer have any ownership of Bally Sports
-Bally Sports would not be available via Prime Video, but possibly via an Amazon Channel
-Carriage disputes should be resolved quickly
-Teams will not be paid as much as previously, though

It's hilarious how often these channels get rebranded or nudged into different programming ideas.

Hell, I'm for TruTV becoming a full-time sports channel - it's not like Impractical Jokers can't move to TBS and retain its audience.

This reminds me how, when the Longhorn Network launched in 2011, the University of Texas ended a longstanding relationship with Time Warner Cable in favor of smaller Grande Communications because they carried the channel at launch, unlike TWC.

Formula One’s ratings aren’t helped by the actual racing being uncompetitive, what with Max Verstappen more than doubling the point total of second place last year.
