Thinking about it more, if ESPN could get the NBC Cast but keep the ESPN app infrastructure, I’ll be good. The NBC Sports app is beyond basura. Always crashes on my firestick and the programming is loaded with ads
ESPN would put the majority of games on ESPN+, so no matter you are probably going to have to get a streaming service if you want to watch it *legally*
Even though they could utilize ESPN2 and ABC
Peacock is pretty much ESPN+. Just like ESPN2/ABC is akin to NBCSports / USA.
The only team I wouldnt mind taking the Prem is CBS/Paramount+. They do an amazing job with UCL/ EL/ UECL. But Idk if they have that level of quality if they have to perform week in week out.
They definitely have a “luxury” touch with UCL.
The only pro to ESPN is that they make every game available on ESPN+.
In terms of game presentation, analysis, studio shows, and promotion they’re not even in the same universe as NBC.
I mean NBC has all the games between NBCSports and Peacock Premium so either way it’ll be a cable + streaming subscription to get all the games.
