Can you actually believe someone wants to watch the big 11 football games??? (see above post) If I want to watch that, I'd go to the local Pop Warner fileds....same thing. Play good against each other and lose to the BIG BOYS of college football

A couple hundred million here, a couple hundred million there. Sooner or later it will add up to, WHAT? 2.5 BILLIONS of one dollar bills? Mind boggling.

Good one Tiger. How about BAMA games on the WE channel. Tampax could be the sponsor. The crimson tide does take place once a month in most women.

Bama games should be on a porn channel...

they expose an "A-Hole" every time their coach takes the field

Looks like the SEC Network will no longer be necessary. Why build your own if someone will let you use their stuff, plus pay you a king's ransom? The situation is akin to me wanting to start my own lawn care business and International Harvester will give me use their fleet of tractors.

The recruiting advantage this deal will give the SEC in time is incredible, too. Avoiding SEC games on television across the country will be like trying to avoid those damn GEICO commercials...

They already did. A couple months back and NBC went along with it. Still scratching my head on that one.

The players need to get paid or get some type of stipend

All I can say is, 15 million bucks a year/school, and living in the heart of the nations recruiting hot-bed, I'd say the SEC has gotten more than just a great deal over the next FIFTEEN YEARS. In how many languages can U say DYNASTY? (Kinda looks like Die Nasty, doesn't it.)

Biggest wins from the deal....

A new ESPNU PrimeTime Slot.
ESPNU goes HD this season
The SEC only agreed to TWO Thursday night games per year.

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.

Thanks for the HT
