Monday Night Football moving?
From Sports Business Daily...
The WALL STREET JOURNAL is citing sources as saying that "MNF" will leave ABC for its sister cable network ESPN in '06. NBC will reportedly pay $600M a year to replace ESPN as the league's broadcaster of Sunday night games. While ABC is paying the NFL $550M a year for "MNF," ESPN's new eight-year deal is expected to be much more expensive and could be in the neighborhood of $1[B] a year. ESPN will carry only regular-season games. ABC aired the Super Bowl in rotation with CBS and Fox under its deal with the league (WSJ.com, 4/18).
