Pesik, sorry, but a 1.3 rating is substantively little different than .3. It is no kind of exposure worth mentioning.

You are wrong there bubba. A 1.3 is about what ESPN would expect and what they are paying for. A .3 is in no way what they expected of the BE - and it is not good news at renewal time. And by the way - a 1.3 is about 4X a .3 - so yeah - its a ton more eyeballs.

The Big East is a good league and I I watch them I'm still a fan.

It's quite easy to find fs1 with satellite

guess you are part of the .3 then. You guys meet in a phone booth?

Hey .3 is better than a 0 rating they get at times. Seriously. ..small school hoops doesn't get ratings.

You needed someone to tell you that? Really?

A brand new sports network needed INVENTORY and since almost every other pro and college property was tied up (most with ESPN), FS1 paid dearly to grab a new sports entity.

What else can people tell you?

Water is wet?

Sky is blue?

As I said, they missed the boat by not trying to get TNA professional wrestling... Wrestling was getting much better ratings on Turner's networks for years. It would double or triple NBE ratings. Like NASCAR, that's a demographic that will seek out that content. The NBE doesn't really have a rabid TV base (small alumni fanbases).

Easy fella'. FS1 came from that there "Speed" channel. Speed=FS1, I don't have to seek nothin out. Right where it always was. Now my wrastlin keeps flippin channels right on, damn near gave up watchin it.

You guys are a classy bunch. Going to need someone to tell me why your schools and your fan base don't seem to get any respect. This one eludes me like why water is wet.

LMAO! Hey Hoya fan, you didn't think that was classy? Now that Georgetown lost during the first weekend, again, I implore you to spend your free time rethinking that...
The Big Priest Conference is like a Man amongst boys. We all know that.
Have fun watching Xavier get butt raped against Arizona, before your gaping conference goes dark again.

So you guys are rejoicing that we lost? How many teams did you guys send again? You guys are a jealous bunch. But I guess that's all you can do sitting on the sidelines. Anyways Graat effort by SMU (though I thought you got robbed) and of course our old buddies the Bearcats. You guys came out strong but UK is just too much this year. This is their tournament to loose.

Oh, I'm so very sorry Georgetown fan. Tell me, in the last 16 years how many Final Four's and National Championship's have you won? You can mock the AAC because we refuse to "shine" the committee's "knob", like the NBE so very gladly does. But until your conference does ANYTHING, you can kindy STFU and GTHFO!!

The nBE conference has had a higher seed in every game, until the X game tonight against ND, and therefore expected to win every game they have played so far. All those advantages has the NBE conference with one team that will be playing next weekend, unless Butler prevails.

The BE C7 portion of the old BE had several underachievers, including Georgetown, Villanova, etc. Always got high seeds but rarely did much with them

Calm down Turbo. Already having an inferiority complex? It's only been two years and you guys were National Champions last year. We recognize that. I have a couple of UCONN friends and they tell me it's just a down year. I have nothing but love for your program because you are basketball blue bloods.
