With all of the griping going on regarding ESPN-U carrying the upcoming game, it is painfully obvious that this is a one-week preview of the season-long firestorm that will occur next year when the above mentioned network begins televising Big 10 games.
This post is to remind everyone that we already have a thread about this. We are certain to have a few dozen new threads started about this network as next season approaches. Those threads will all be merged with this one.
My thoughts on the issue:
Fully One hour and Seventeen minutes into the Spielman on Sports Show; they finally mentioned the word "economics" in their interminable discussion about this. Make no mistake folks; economics is what this debate is about.
Some of you think that you should be able to influence a businesses decisions by some means other than spending money with that business or choosing to not spend money with them. The only way I have ever seen this work is by filing frivolous lawsuits and having a judge agree with you. It is a common practice these days. Give it a shot.
As for further discussion on this; I have said my peace. I have no intention of debating this issue with anyone. This is a football board.
