Man am I loving this new network!! Nothing better than a network dedicated to the best conference in the nation. Now that ought to start some interesting conversations. Couldn't have come a better time for me personally as my son has verballed to a SEC school. Should help dad save a few miles, maybe.

YG, congrats to your son! But don't count on the network saving you too many miles - you know you're going to try to be there as much as possible regardless!!!
It could be a major step on the way to baseball becoming a money sport and over time creating more financial support for itself. Working with ESPN to get more games on for college in general will also help on both fronts.
I am guessing that they will put 75-100 games on from Late March after basketball to end of the season and will get good ratings. The baseball itself is very good and the fans of these schools bleed school colors. They would probably watch tiddly winks matches among them.
Who knows, it might help improve the game itself if more kids in the south that might have played football, pick up a glove and bat instead. That next Hank Aaron might actually play baseball again instead of RB or WR if he sees he can get on TV 15 times a year playing baseball at Alabama.

Yes Rick I will try to make as many games as possible. It would kill me to be sitting at home watching it on TV. But on the occasion I can't make it, it sure would be nice to see it on TV as opposed to trying to follow on the computer or such.
