A PASSION PLAY, NOT A SPORTS PLAY

Engaged Targeted Live

Regional sports networks are the single

biggest change [in sports TV] over the past 25

years. They put out the entire slate of games

of the local team, and that feeds the beast.

Big time live sports is more important

than anything else on American

television, and it certainly is the savior of

classic American network television.

- Dick Ebersol, Former Chairman of NBC Sports

Probably the biggest disappointment

(was) I was never able to get ESPN

into the regional business. I like that

business. It’s very loyal, has big

ratings and would have been great.

But I could never convince (former ABC

Chair & CEO) Tom Murphy or (former Cap

Cities President & COO) Dan Burke to

actually invest.

- Steve Bornstein, Former President of ESPN
