Along with Warner Bros. Discovery (huh? WHY?)

Fox and ESPN joining forces - must be another one of those signs of the apocalypse I suppose.

Could be a positive for Boise State and a rebuilt PAC/MTN conference in a year. I’m guessing a huge new streaming platform will need a lot of live content and a league that’s going to be looking for a new media rights deal soon might be pretty valuable to it.

Depending on what the price point will be I think if you watch nothing but sports this is a great alternative VS just buying a cable package. Or at the very least it will allow people to cut down on their cable packages and save a few bucks. For sports fans its hard to think of it anything other than a positive thing (again, the starting price point will be the ultimate decider on that and content). Being able to watch most, if not all sports under one app will be extremely convenient for people who like to complain about having to use multiple apps.
