Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 4703352, member: 833"] Looking at how this played out, it looks a lot like the ACC raids of the Big East. ESPN's fingerprints are all over this, in one final stupid, self-destructive, conference assassination by the worldwide leader. When the history is written on this era, ESPN will have been the worst thing to happen to college athletics in the first quarter of the 21st century. 5 years from now, when the MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL and all the soccer leagues plus much of college sports are streaming directly, ESPN will be able to look back to this kind of behavior when they wonder why they can only charge $2/month to 20,000 users because that is the market for people who will subscribe to stream lumberjack competitions.
