Not sure why you think that. Their bid five years ago was built around double headers w/ND home games and all AAC on away game weeks plus NBCsports (where weeknight bball and fball would go which has higher distribution than CBSSN). They've got the room for it. The only work around would be Olympic years. They may not be interested, but I haven't seen anything that conclusively rules them out.

BTW, they don't need nor do I think they'd want everything. Unless ESPN throws the kitchen sink, dollars will be maxed via a split contract. They could pick up whatever windows work in their schedule as could ESPN and CBS. FOX isn't getting a good return for what they paid for the Big East (ratings wise) and have enough B1G and Big 12 fball that I'd be surprised if they bid. NBC is the best chance for max OTA exposure, but has obvious limitations as well.

How so?

Politically espn promotes hate for our president while Fox is “fair and balanced”.

exactly. ESPN pushes the truth while Faux pushes propaganda. We already know this.

Agreed...

It amazes me how many people can be led to different viewpoints so far to either extreme and not realize they are being led.

I doubt Fox News going anywhere until Rupurt Murdock says so. Of course I thought I was wrong once but was mistaken.

Per CNet today:

? Were logos that I didn’t edit out.

Haha, good one.

SMH. I am no fan of Fox, but if you think ESPN pushes truth then you are mistaken. Both are biased to the hilt. ESPN maybe slightly less so only because they are in the sports world.
