Time to give ESPN a run for their money. I know it wont happen right away but this is a step for a takeover. IMO

I thought FOX has a sports network already? I've also noticed Cox added another fox channel to digital. channel 79.

Oh man I hope it's the sports equivalent to Fox News.

I think Fox has a better shot than NBC at this point.

ESPN has the armed forces carrying it overseas markets. you get 3 national games every week, usually the best matches. I hope Fox can replace ESPN IN the USA.

I really think America is wanting an alternative to ESPN, the only problem is that ESPN has the rights to most major sporting events

Not national like ESPN

The Fox Football Daily program, with Bradshaw, Long, Glazer, et al sounds very promising... the preceding hour of the Regis Philbin hosted Rush Hour, however, does not.

i hope its included in the basic plans, and not a sub like nfln and nbcs.

You know they are just going to be biased in favor of the Redskins.

All I can remember from that channel was them playing the same sports show for 23 hours

Fox has a bunch of regional channels but not a major one. They do have the SPEED channel which they recently renamed the Fox Sports Speed

I agree. I was hopeful when NBCS came on but it seemed like the only had ideas for maybe 3 shows and seemed content to wing the rest. FS1 from what I have read seems to be getting a full line up set and ducks in a row before launching.

some of these are coming up for renewals soon and can hopefully snag a couple. Also I know there is a few NASCAR fans here like myself (which is also up for renewal very soon) and NASCAR has changed some of there events to night events to be shown on FS1.
