Well, I called this post.

Yeah. I called the post too. It’s called being blind to reality and ignoring facts & figures. But please go on. This is thoroughly entertaining. The fact that you may be the only person who thinks the ACCN is in any way shape or form going to generate the revenue to stay relevant with the SECN & B1GN in the next 2 years is priceless.

You know what else was profitable at one time? The P12N. How has that looked recently and going forward?

What an obnoxious straw man.

I feel like I was just asked to count to potato, and I’m not that bored right now to follow through on that.
 
On the bright side, if ESPN goes belly up then the ACC can void its GoR with ESPN and, therefore void the GoR agreements with all ACC schools which frees us up to hop on the B1G freight train of financial gain.
 
Add this in the mix: Chinese Real Estate giant Evergrande is delisted on the Chinese stock exchange along with 5 other Real Estate firms. That is 28% of the Chinese GDP. If US companies and financials invested in those companies, then the speculative bonds that they put on the books for a 10% Return on Investment are worthless.
It would not surprise me to see all of this (conference expansion) change tomorrow morning. Watch your money. Watch the market.

So 5 companies constitute 28% of China’s GDP? And all 5 are suddenly delisted from the Chinese stock exchange? So China just fired a financial torpedo at its own economy?

Pardon me while I double-check this.

I did it for you. Pretty incredible, but it verifies every word he said:

Sorry, would have joined in on the conversation, but have been working on a new project all day.
 
Has anybody been hit with the ESPN 43% increase yet? Suppose to happen in August. Just checking in on the issue. $6.99 to $9.99 or so.

I don't think people understand how this works. ESPN doesn't make college football popular. College football makes ESPN popular. As long as college football is the 2nd most watched TV product in America there will be someone willing to pay money to air it. And I think you can see where expansion is going. OU, Texas, USC, UCLA all programs with massive fan bases.

Neither USC nor UCLA comes even close to selling out their games. If their fan base is widespread (a big IF), it's thinner than a dime and more fickle than Taylor Swift. I used to live and work in LA. There are a lot better things to do there than get mugged near the Mausoleum.

There's a story that the BIG 10 NETWORK is looking at a deal with Fox, NBC and CBS.
But not ESPN.

Big Ten on verge of $1 billion in TV deals that will exclude ESPN

The Big Ten is on the cusp of television deals that are expected to pay it in excess of $1 billion and create a college football triple-header featuring Fox, CBS and NBC, The Post has confirmed.

Yes, I just saw t hat. Looks like a negative revenue impact for ESPN will loose showing any B1G games. So they could only show SEC games in a reduced media footprint.
