Speculation: Who is going to buy FSOhio? Sold!

[DEF]

And Sportstime Ohio. As of today Disney owns them. Disney has to sell them but Fox is not allowed to buy them back per the agreement.

how would we know/have any idea?..

 

[DEF]

Probably should have tagged this as speculation.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

I will

 

[Fro]

would be smart for Turner to do...

 

[CBJx614]

Amazon?

They've been trying to break into streaming sports with the airing of NFL and other sports. Wouldn't surprise me to see someone like them or YouTube buying them to add to their YoutubeTV

 

[Socks]

I got 5 bucks not already earmarked for survival.

 

[DEF]

Never thought about Amazon. Comcast is already heavily involved in hockey. Sinclair is expanding their involvement in sports. All three could easily afford buying out the Fox contracts.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

I have a friend in the know. He told me that TSN is going to buy them and move the team to Quebec.

Barf

Please no Sinclair.

Looks like I called it. Sinclair bought 20 Fox Sports regional outlets including FSO, FSC and STO.

 

[Cyclones Rock]

I am. Details forthcoming.

Good thing we're strong at RW...

 

[DEF]

Amazon is partnering with Sinclair with YES, the Yankees network.

Yeah but I keep reading we want to move someone over to the left side.

Whomever it is, I hope they upgrade the cameras used for hd. Pretty old technology is being used, and its not near as sharp as alot of out of markets games . Probably asking too much

That's something I've noticed too. Everything about our games looked sharper on tv in the playoffs with the national broadcast's stream.

 

[Ice9]

Never...
If I never see another game so be it.

I know for damn sure the games SOUND sharper on national tv....
(boom!!! my first shot at Rimer fired for this season)

 

[DEF]

Sinclair just made their first hire. JLGP is replacing Bill.

 

[Cowumbus]

Are the cameras the reason that the rink looks so dark too?

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Not sure. Let's compare it:

NBC Cameras:



SN Cameras:



FSNO:



To me, they look similar but SN has the cleanest view. *shrug*

Idk I think the FSO cameras are the worst and make the arena/fans in the seats look dark. Not a huge deal but it bothers me that our jerseys look almost black on tv.

NBC looks much clearer , especially on a 65 inch tv . Fso gamma is too dark, and the resolution is probably supposed to be 720p. Too bad cbs doesn’t broadcast hockey . Their sports whether it’s nfl, sec on cbs looks World’s better than both fox , and abc . NBC is pretty close . Anyway , I just hope they use new equipment

Unless things have changed in recent years, I believe both ABC and Fox channels only broadcast in 720 while NBC and CBS are 1080 HD. All Fox channels look alike so I assume they use the same HD setup.
