The CSTV deal, as signed, was and is a disaster. End of story. Period.
When the deal was signed, ESPN had a potential audience of 290 million. CSTV's was 10 million.
It's still not close.
And, we are not even on CSTV, we don't have local distribution deals (like the Big East), and we aren't even really getting that much money.
And there is nothing we can do about anything, including if the entire thing is sold out from under us and signed over to a russian internet streaming service.
No one could call this a good deal. "We will make you disappear from the planet for less than 1 million per year per team."
