Message: [QUOTE="og in Omaha, post: 3193320, member: 9948"] Former Kingston, RI native and PC fan (sorry) but now living in Omaha. A couple of thoughts about BE Tv package vs AAC. The BE has games on Fox, FS1, CBS and CBSSN. The coverage was amazing in that all but 3 Creighton games were on TV. And they were all non conference games versus cupcakes. The numbers may not be equal to ESPN but there are plenty of advantages. First. I don't think anyone cares how many other people are watching the game as long as you can. I'd trade be able to watch 90 percent of my games on TV than what ESPN offered. A buddy of mine joked a few years ago he was glad his Huskers played us because then he can watch a game. And NE has their own network/ Second. Obviously CBS and Fox have NFL games during the season. Put a number besides your name and the football audiences (which dwarfs anything ESPN has except MNF) will see your program during in game promos. And there has been times when BE games led in to playoff games. Third. I know just a little about the future of TV and a lot of you are correct about digital and streaming. In the next five years you will see more content moving towards Amazon and Yahoo. See what the NFL is doing. It is still a few years away. Let ESPN work out the bugs. I guarantee you, everyone will be equal within a few years. Fourth. The money is pretty good considering it's for hoops, a little soccer and lacrosse [/QUOTE]
