I completely agree about the postgame thing. And that's why the late SportsCenter with SVP is often better because he's got the guy on who just won the game. He's doing the breakdown of the game, whether it's football or basketball. I felt some of the angst from the TNT thing is about moving to ESPN, too. I mean, that was clearly part of it, right? Hey, we got this great show over here.

It felt to me like going from place A to place B was part of the subtext of that. You know, we created this. We won. Right. For 20 years, we won the studio show war over ESPN. Now they're paying us to come over there. Some of us got new contracts, which we heard a ton about the last year and change to go over there. But it also felt like that was a little bit of what Barkley was saying.

Those bozos over there, whatever word he used. And now we're going over there. That was interesting to me.

Yeah, and it's not apples to apples. Because if Charles Barkley was hosting a show every weekday morning, the A block would not be Thunder and Cats. Exactly. The show would not lead with it.

I think every decision, or just about every decision they've made over the last couple of years, goes to two things. Get ready for the first ever ESPN Super Bowl in two years. That's Joe and Troy, that's SVP to Monday Night Countdown, that's changing the producer of Monday Night Football, etc., Number two, get ready for the launch of Flagship this fall, their streaming service.
