What are the possibilities here? Both up and down.

could be bigger than that...Comcast Sports is no joke...great market list: SF/Oakland, Baltimore, CHI, New England, NY, Comcast Northwest, Philly, DC...add to that NBC and dozen cable nets owned by NBC plus the ones already owned by Comcast..who knows...you could see a ton of cross promotion and simulcast opportunities. I could see where Comcast Sports launches its own sports net nationally to pool all of these assets with a sort of best of weekly line-up. Remember with the merger they will have the rights to all of the following: Olympics, Sunday Night NFL, U.S. Open, The Ryder Cup, Presidents Cup, Kentucky Derby, Preakness, Wimbledon, the French Open, NHL reg season plus the Stanley Cup Finals, the first few rounds of The Masters (USA), and i am sure plenty more...It wont even matter if TW or even Cox dont want to pick it up, Comcast has 23 million households anyway (most in top TV markets) or they could eventually just bundle it as part of the overall Comcast package...one rate, 20+ networks (CNBC, MSNBC, Bravo, USA, etc...). They would get nationwide coverage from the start. It could get really crazy. Lots of ways this could go
