Re: SBC delivering for ESPN...
I guess they ARE thrilled. SBC is one of the few products upon which ESPN isn't overspending. The PAC-12 fell apart when Apple told them exactly what they are worth. Oregon and Washington to the Big 10 at half money is still a good deal for those universities. They're all probably getting paid more than their product is worth, but the networks are up against the wall. They need content that makes them relevant and they're leveraging their existence on it.

I meant the current markets we have today (Georgia State is in Atlanta, like I mean downtown Atlanta which has a metro population of almost 7 million people and the Va Beach/Norfolk/Newport News area (ODU) which as a population of roughly 2 million people, at one time and I am not sure if this is still the case, but the Chesapeake area (VB, Norfolk, Newport News and Chesapeake) was the largest market in the US not to have any major league sports teams. Not to mention San Marcos, Texas which is literally dead smack between Austin, Texas (the fastest growing city in the US - 42 minutes away) and San Antonio (51 minutes away), which are both huge markets.
