      Now, then. Is that for television rights in India? If so, that's about 1.5 billion potential people to watch. That may or may not be justifiable.

        World wide - big bucks are for India, but it's not chump change for the rest of the world - even the US where I am a faithful watcher and fan of the Royal Challengers Bangalore.

                Cut the cord, and free of ESPN. Good riddance.

                      I'll go to a bar to watch the games I want to see. I'd rather give them money for beer than Dish money for ESPN.

                          If you ask a question, or make an assertion, that doesn't feed one side or another's argument, you're either triggered or pout-raging. Because you can't just be curious or not share the group's opinions these days.

                            • So, there was a Big Fight last night that ended in a draw; one of the judges scored it 118-110 in favor of Canelo (?).

                              1. Teddy Atlas and Stephen A had a shouting match on ESPN after the fight.

                              2. Misogynists are saying women shouldn't be allowed as judges.

                                Screamin A has more shouting matches before 9AM than most people do all day.

                                Men are just as incompetent/corrupt as women.
