ABC & MNF

Post by Outdoorsfool » April 19th, 2005, 12:01 pm

Beginning the 2006 season Monday Night Football will no longer be on ABC. It moves to ESPN. Them mother ******* are gonna make me break down and get cable/satellite yet. Image

It gets worse ODF......the powers that be are trying to make ESPN a premium channel on cable (just like HBO, an extra cost per month). Since I get ESPN on my satellite package, it is included. It's all about ratings and money. Image

The other thing that came out in the announcement was that Sunday Night Football will now move to NBC in prime-time.

Here is a link to the entire story:

Yeah, I saw that about moving to NBC. That's cool though, the networks are still free....for now. I'll probably have to break down and go with a dish. TV is kind of like internet and such to me....if I can survive the 3 winter months without it, I won't miss it the rest of the year.
