Of note, this is phone and tablet only. No tv app, no streaming to TVs.

So...I work for DSG and nobody is telling us anything! We'll see what happens in mid-February I guess.

FWIW, the Fox RSNs were kicked off Dish before Sinclair bought them.

What gets lost in the "why doesn't the league just start its own network" is that the leagues will then have to produce the games, which they don't want to do.

MLS’ deal with Apple is an interesting testing ground for this. I wonder if any of the other leagues (well I guess just MLB and the NBA) will look at that over the next couple years and think they could also take it on with a single production partner.

MLS is set up differently because most of the teams were already doing their own production. Soccer is a relative low cost production vs MLB/NBA/NHL. The MLS game quantity is way less too.

Everyone is saying in the NBA about how the new broadcast deal is going to inject a ton of money into the league but I'm wondering if it actually will, the only place I think of that might be desperate enough to pay huge would be NBC as they don't have a weekly crown jewel thing. If NBC Sports still existed, I'd be more inclined to think so.

Sunday Night Football is a weekly crown jewel thing NBC has.

I'm still not sure why someone like Byron Allen hasn't bought the broadcast rights to HBCU athletics and tried to roll a bunch of stuff up into a Black Culture type streamer

This is exactly what the Grio is.
