We knew it wasn't a matter of if it was going to rain, but when.
I think at the outset there are a lot of games that would have to be broadcast so it's difficult to look at it at this point as a network play at that time of year. But I'd like to believe down the road once this tournament evolves that our interest will grow.
[For me, this was great television. For the kid who wants to get to the majors, it's a $100 lesson. For Goren, it's the reason he made the hire. But what about the hitter in Atlanta or New York or Miami?] I don't think there's anything that Al describes in a broadcast that would give opposing batters an advantage against him, ... but if I were a young pitcher coming up, I'd take notes.
[If no one wants to seriously take my theory that working in the booth maybe hurting his career on the mound, so be it. But if there's a major league hitter out there who might be scouting Leiter off what he says on tube,] let us know, ... We'd like to interview him.
You just hope for volume. If we get a six- or seven-game World Series, this thing will build naturally.
The fans who have paid for the Sunday Ticket are really upset ... and so am I.
They're still forming a form of a flexible schedule. But we really do believe that it will not be damaging. It will be positive for all parties.
It's not a case of who's in the booth increasing ratings, ... But unless you present your best face, you stand a chance of losing ratings. We feel it (the cost of a third member of the team) is a wash.
