With all the things that have been going on with ESPN, the firings of so many broadcasters, Disney which owns ESPN is also facing financial issues. Whether or not they will rebound remains to be seen. I am just guessing and voicing my viewpoint. So many people have cut the cord with these providers and have gone to other forms to watch their televison viewing. The economy of the U.S.A. is really not good at with all the social issues and political issues. Lastly on my provider I got billing update and my monthly bill had gone up to $278. I said enough so I went to my provider and canceled my subscription with them and subscribed to Hulu. The explanation given to me about my bill being so high was that providers ABC, NBC, CBS, and Fox had a monthly fee of over $100 for broadcast fees. So when I canceled my subscription those fees went away. I still have to have internet and wifi so even with that I am saving over $100 a month. Other providers like NetFlix took a hit as well. At one time they had over one hundred million subscribers. People also got fed up with them as they kept on with increases. Before I cancelled Net Flix they had gone up to $20 a month. This also affected the writers in California who wanted part of the subscription fees. Net Flix told them that they had lost over 50 millions subscribers. So the writers like Target, Disney and Bud Light had gone down the path of woke. This was another reason people cancelled with Net Flix quit shopping at Target and quit buying Bud Light. Budweiser just announced a massive corporate layoff. With all this being said I understand that ESPN is going to sell part of their business to Trade King. Trade King has told them that the SEC must remain part of their broadcast package. This was mentioned on the Paul Finebaum show last week and Paul Finebaum did not comment. ESPN, Trade King and possibly another gambling business will be part of the business moving forward. ESPN also has told the SEC that even with Oklahoma and Texas being added to the conference that they were not going to make a substantial payout because of all the money they had lost. So as I see it the SEC will stay at a 8 game conference schedule. One final comment as I was talking a friend in the media industry he mentioned that Greg Sankey has made it perfectly clear that the SEC is content and happy at 16 teams. The conference members from my understanding do not want to add anymore teams. That is why you see so much talk about Clemson going to the BIG10. Who knows where this ends up. Finally I think sooner or later the PAC12 will get APPLE, maybe another gambling company to get to a final tv deal. Only time will tell.
