Renewing CBSSN

Isn't the contract available via request? Would be interested to see if there is an escalator in case cbs decides to use their options

there’s a modest increase if CBSSN uses the two options but it’s basically the same as the current deal

Dream on. The NEWBIE will be lucky to get $7 million. And it will have to expand. Which A10 team do you want?
