I live far outside the SNY area, so I have already been getting the SNY games-only on ESPN3 - no pre/post-game, Geno Show or special progeamming.
But I’m pretty sure for you locals that if SNY or some other local media outfit is willing to produce the games that ESPN/CBS/FS don’t want, ESPN will be happy to allow this (for a fee), with the rights to stream that broadcast outside the local station’s area on ESPN+.
ESPN does not have the resources to produce all these games themselves, and for events like AAC WBB conference games it makes no financial sense for them to put additional resources in place. They will be greatful for the content provided by local stations throughout the conference.[/QUOTE
Grateful, you talkin about grateful? You talkin about ESPN bein grateful? You talkin about ESPN bein so grateful about all the tax breaks the state has given them that they might care about and help UConn, just a little! Some crumbs maybe.
