March Money Madness: CBS Sports to spend $6 billion over 11 years for basketball tourney
CBS to ink new $6B contract for NCAA basketball - Nov. 18, 1999 Doing the math.... There are 4,015 days in 11 years (365x11). $6,000,000,000 divided by 4015 days is $1,494,396 and, wait for it, a penny, EVERY DAY. Or approx $62,266.50 per hour, every hour of every day for 11 years. So, yeah, If I'm CBS - I run this contract to the letter it's written and run every commercial I can. Don't hate the player, hate the game! |

CBS coverage has been horrendous. It was awful last year and now it is worse. I already did a post how there was about 1 minute of play and 15 mins of ads while there was about 4 games going on. Then that stupid Exxon thing on the tv. Exxon the company that hopes African countries remain unstable and corrupt so they get better oil deals.

Football = Kickoff -commercial, punt - commercial, interception - commercial, TD - commercial, injury - commercial, etc. AND, that's with 8 minutes to go in the first quarter! Many times the games have absolutely no flow. At least at home you can flip channels, go to the fridge, DVR/TIVO, etc. My $.02.
