Message: [QUOTE="ctchamps, post: 2172529, member: 37"] These firings are a second round of damage control. It won't stop the bleeding unless ESPN can come up with a way to provide content to keep subscribers. I don't see that happening. At some point in time I expect they won't get that $7 from carriers and between that and the loss of subscribers they will have a difficult time meeting all their contractual obligations. I'm with [USER=1414]@HuskyHawk[/USER] in that the sports bubble is about to pop or at the very least contract. UConn and the AAC will be hurt but it may very well hurt other conferences. I wonder if the ACC network will still be be a go and even if it is will it stay viable.? If Disney cuts ESPN loose, a prudent play imo, what happens to all the contracts? Things may get very interesting in the near future. [/QUOTE]
