In response to "They want regional Fox Sports channels but not Fox Sports? That's kind of weird." by David

- That was unclear. Disney takes the regionals and Comcast takes the national network to merge with NBCSN. - spamlet Dec 7, 14:15 4
  - Actually, I'm now realizing it makes perfect sense in that they can use those outlets for ESPN+. -- nm - David Dec 7, 14:18 3
    - It is almost like they thought of this. -- nm - Spawndroid Dec 7, 15:49
    - oh that's smart. -- nm - Remlik Dec 7, 14:22
