    Just noticed this there:

    Read Stuff Here

    seems that from April 1st PTI, Around the Horn, Baseball Tonight & Sports Reporters are coming to NASN... Which is nice... At least they've decided to make use of the fact they're ownded by the ESPN... Never seen PTI or ATH, any good? Apparently used be on up until last year or so?

    Also noticed they seem to sign off on things (emails and stuff) with NASN - the Leader in North American Sports. Similar to ESPN worldwide leader in sports.... Just an observation...

    Possibly it because April 1st is when ESPN's deal to acquire NASN is finalized. Another ESPN programme nasn is already showing is their NASCAR magazine series NASCAR Now.

    Yeah PTI is great

    PTI is great. Michael and Tony really have a great chemistry.

    ATH can be very good at times, so long as Jay Marriotti gets the gate early in the show. He is a loudmouth, bomb thrower that only wants to annoy people with his smugness. He is famous for this in Chicago where he writes for the Chicago Sun Times.

    You will also find that he will never miss an episode. His ego will not allow him. He has to get his face on camera as often as possible.

    Either way I am very excited to getting both of these shows back in my daily routine !!

    Finally!! I really missed PTI and ATH (to a lesser extent obviously) during the NFL and College ball season. I would also assume that this will mean that next season we will get shows such as NFL LIVE and the weekly highlights package back. Hooraay!! :)

    Marriotti back on telly



    I feel sick

    He has never left.

    his ego is so far out of whack that he makes sure that if he isn't on PTI or ATH that he makes a cameo appearence from whatever remote location that he is in.

    The man is a douchebag, and in no way speaks for anyone in the great City of Chicago.

    While I'm not certain of the specifics of NFL TV Packages for Europe, I would presume that Sky will remain the broadcast right holders for the UK & Ireland and any NASN/ESPN coverage in this area would be subject to ESPN doing a deal with Sky.

    Him and Tony Kornheiser are the two biggest idiots in the American media at the moment. Don't plan to resubscribe just because they have ESPN shows back I'll wait and see if they get the NBA back

    Watched bits of ATH last night (it was all about the NCAA basketball so not v.interesting...) Anyway, wasn't bad... Its also the show of the day, as in yesterday's show was shown on ESPN Tuesday also... Based on NASN's schedule, its only an hour after original broadcasting... I was expecting it to be a day late, like other shows that NASN had. (Sports tonight anybody?) Good news though, i think i'll be watching...
