So I found out this morning that last night ESPN has made some serious acquisitions.
They bought the NFL Network and rights to Red Zone.
Apparently ESPN will also acquire the NFL fantasy to be merged with their platform. There's some technical speak in there that I don't get and really don't need to learn lol.
This seems to be a merger more than anything.
It will be complicated and there will be changes once everything is said and done but that's not reported to be until some time next year.
Our current football season is safe and sound.
GO RAVENS lol.

I wonder what, if anything, will change.

Good. Maybe “regular” ESPN can go back to covering other sports.

As far as I know they do. Every time I go there it's baseball or hockey

@JordanLader — they’re always talking football, and drafts in 2-3 years.

@FourWalls I wish I tuned in when they did. Every time I do it's usually something else and I'm not an all sports girl, just football.

It will. At least they're being honest and there will be changes. The article with all the technicalities are on ESPN news but there's a lot.
