More annoying than ever. It takes up more of the screen and doesn't go away on commercials.Still annoying as all hell

If the rumors are true NESN will look a lot more like ESPN very shortly.
Can't blame the Red Sox for looking into cashing out now as the future of RSN's is unclear. Jacobs could block it but he would have to meet the price but given what YES was just sold for NESN is worth at least $1.5 BILLION.
If ESPN did buy it they could easily move the studios to Channel 5 in Needham that is owned by Hearst ( which owns 20% of ESPN ) - NBC/Comcast could be lurking as well.
ESPN was blocked from buying the FOX RSN's but buying NESN would not be an issue.
Why would it not be a problem? Wasn’t the issue with Disney?
I thought today’s picture was better. The new bottom line would be much better if it was the same size as the older one.
but it seems like that's exactly what Disney is doing, creating a monopoly with all these stations. I hate what they have done to ABC and ESPN since acquiring them and have all but stopped watching either station or even streaming any programs from either. Am I really the outlier and most like it enough to make them think they're doing things the way the consumer wants them?!in essence, you need to have competition, much like we see between newspapers back in the day, the dreaded 'competitive balance' so you don't have 1 entity becoming a monopoly
Can someone explain to me why this new ticker has a full inch of blank space at the bottom to make it even bigger taking up our screen?First time catching the game on NESN since they've updated the ticker at the bottom. Holy hell, that is annoying and distracting! I've always hated the ticker, but thought the most recent one prior to this one was a little better. This one is horrible.
WHY?

Starting in 2 weeks NESN will be airing a weekly late-night comedy/variety show from Bangor
A preview
I'll take Billy Costa to block.
Admittedly, I haven't watched the whole clip, but...do they have a contest at NESN for bad ideas that are (hopefully) cheap? It boggles my mind that a network that has broadcasting rights to two teams that are (some of) the oldest teams in their respective leagues can't get any good sports-oriented programming about said teams on the network. Instead, we get weird stuff like Dining Playbook (I know; it started on NECN), Charlie Moore (I know; for some reason, he executive produces everything on NESN), and Dirty Water TV.
