I don\’t think this has much to do with poker directly, but I\’m trying to pimp a new blog indirectly it does because ESPN suddenly finds itself with a little extra programming cash on hand — not to mention some extra air time — having lost the rights to broadcast the Champions League in the US to Fox Soccer Channel.
Perhaps Fox got the funds to outbid ESPN from all those Season 7 World Poker Tour/Full Tilt infomercials they\’ve been running? And what do you think the odds are that this could mean raises for Norman Chad and Lon McEachern more poker on TV?
