Bayou Classic Moves to NBC Sports

[Statboy]

What are you talking about? You obviously still don't understand the difference between network TV and cable TV.

You visit our message board to start an irrelevant thread boasting about your classic game with Grambling because you fell for the SWAC spin that it's some sort of great deal with great viewership when the game is actually being removed from network TV due to very poor viewership over the last decade. Then you with your senseless attitude try to turn it into smack against us. I disagree with ITdrummer because you've tried to insult Tech at every opportunity, and I think you've overstayed your welcome on our board.

I see you're one of them. When you can't take the heat or confirm the load of crap you're dumping, you tuck tail by playing victim.

Nobody asked you to address my post, you could have just kept it moving like the various others did. Instead you decided to TRY and be coy with your smack and than took it further with insulting smack but like every bully that's walk the face of this earth.

You can't handle it when you're smack right back in the face, so now you're looking for your buddies to help you fight.

Word of advice. Stay in the 12-17 lane until you're actually ready to drive with the big boys or you'll end up like this.

And I'm definitely not playing victim. I'm just sick of trolls like you and the ULL fans taking over our board. You would've been banned long ago if I were an admin.

This should be fun!

Bottom line: Like LaLaff fans, Statboy ain't very smart.

Example: Internet > Cable > Network/National

If the deal is so great for the Bayou Classic, then you would think an offer would have been made to move Notre Dame to NBC Sports instead of the main network channel. Maybe Notre Dame isn't quite as big of a draw though.

Expect a comeback from the SWAC lover saying that they offered ND the same deal.

We can make it simpler.......

Who on this board has a tv in their house with a wire connected to the wall????

That TV is capable of receiving a signal to provide you with NBC, CBS, and ABC without a major TV subscription and probably without any subscription at all.

Now, who has a TV package that provides Fox Sports, Fox Sports SW, CBS Sports, NBC Sports, ASN, or other minor sports channels I am forgetting?

Which would you rather be one? Don't answer Stat, it's rhetorical.

Funny you should mention that....

NOTRE DAME, Ind. - The University of Notre Dame and NBC Sports have reached agreement on a new 10-year contract giving NBC the rights to televise Irish home football games from 2016 to 2025 and extending the partnership between the University and network to 35 years.

A joint announcement of the extension was made April 18 by Mark Lazarus, chairman of NBC Sports Group, and Notre Dame's president, Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C.

"Coming off one of Notre Dame's best and most dramatic seasons in decades, we could not be more proud to extend this historic partnership, which continues to be one of the most innovative in sports-media history," Lazarus said. "We are particularly excited that this extension offers enhanced rights that allow us to bring Notre Dame Football to fans on more platforms than ever before."

As it has since 2009, NBC Sports Digital will continue to live stream Fighting Irish home games for the web, mobile and tablets.

Father Jenkins noted the multiple benefits of the partnership with NBC.

"In addition to the national broadcast of our home football games, this longtime and valued collaboration with NBC has made a Notre Dame education possible to literally thousands of students," Father Jenkins said. "We are delighted to extend our partnership to bring Irish football to our fans, to continue to help support financial aid, and to tell the Notre Dame story."

Revenues from the NBC contract have played a key role in Notre Dame's financial aid endowment since the start of the relationship in 1991. University officers decided then to use a portion of the football television contract revenue for undergraduate scholarship endowment (not athletic scholarships). To date, some 6,300 Notre Dame undergraduate students have received nearly $80 million in aid from revenue generated through the NBC contract.

The University also has committed revenue from NBC to endow doctoral fellowships in its Graduate School and MBA scholarships in its Mendoza College of Business.

Spelling and proper grammar are also fundamental and keep one from looking silly.

Seriously.
