Message: [QUOTE="packwrap, post: 5202094, member: 13341"] Usually, rights to 'special shows' go along with the regular broadcast rights. We will all miss SNY. To me it was like old school local baseball. SNY were unabashedly homers for UConn (like Harry Caray for the Cubs. Bob Uecker, Vin Skully, Susan Waldman etc ), but they respected opponents and recognized outstanding opponent plays and results. The high quality and consistency of the production was great too. UConn was unique in having this type of coverage available due Huskies level of play. The TV made UConn not only a CT thing, but an entire metro NYC team. In new contract, UConn as league flagship, should get most games covered. I'm curious what will happen with 'low interest' OOC games, and with worst BE opponents. Also will new provider give any local flavor, or just focus on the league. End of an era.:( [/QUOTE]
