Message: [QUOTE="FASTEDDY, post: 2172147, member: 2086"] How is it possible to overpay so much for the NFL and NBA. I can see overpaying a bit in order to secure the rights fees but to be soooo much higher than the others is just crazy. Isn't is logical that if Fox paid $1.1 billions and has great inventory of games and Super Bowls, then ESPN should be paying A LOT LESS for what they are getting. They have to have some of this competitive information when making bids. The people who have so grossly overpaid for these rights fees are the ones who need to get the axe. Dana O'neil, I won't shed any tears about her getting canned. She did UCONN absolutely no favors at any time. [/QUOTE]
