Meh, still not a fan. Swapping to whatever CHSN, aka Chosen per me, is almost assuredly going to result in an increase in cable bills with at least an initial reduction in quality as per the norm of new launches. And the teams all stink (okay, to be fair, the Bulls are mediocre), so it's not like there's any must watch talent on the teams other than Bedard.

I thought they were moving to Stadium?

They decided to not use that name. The president of Stadium is moving over.

So NBCS Chicago is dead.

I think that only leaves two NBC Sports RSNs left in the country, the Bay Area and Philly.

Washington DC?

Washington DC?

That one died a couple years ago. It's Monumental Sports Network or something like that.

Washington DC?

That is Monumental Sports Network now. I did forget about Boston and I'm surprised the Celtics aren't playing on NESN yet. They have their own local network already built in for years.

I also found out the Giants contract with NBCSBA goes until 2032. That's a long contract. I still think it won't go all the way, as even NBC has been contracting the last few years.
