Looks like NBC is going to try to position NBC Sports as a serious competitor to ESPN.

If they use their existing relationship with the NFL and NBA to transfer some of those games to the new network, plus push some Olympic coverage to that station during Olympic years, they will be a good alternative.

Great news for both the MLS and NHL that they are taking this channel very seriously.
