Regional Sports Networks that are with Fan Duel (formerly Ballys and formerly Fox Sports Network) are the main ones going there.

Not sure what Comcast will do with the NBC Sports Regional Networks. There’s only Boston, Philadelphia, Bay Area and California left. @K-Apps

we haven't had comcast/NBC sports network in two years once Jerry Reinsdorf created his own direct to consumer channel/app since it removed the white sox/blackhawks/bulls from the former NBC, which meant they had no content.

and since our channel is a one off, there's no way we get some kinda package deal going forward.

Yeah, in DC, we had NBC Sports Washington which was 66% owned by Comcast and 33% owned by Ted Leonsis.

Ted bought the remaining 66% in 2023 and re-named it to Monumental Sports Network which had Wizards, Capitals, Mystics games.

once I lost NBC sports chicago, I cancelled YT TV. there was simply no need for it cuz I could no longer watch local teams on cable other than the bears, which are already on local TV for free.

I still have cable with Verizon Fios. And I'm paying the same as what YouTube TV is charging which is funny.
