CBS got a discount for years from the SEC and didn’t want to match the ABC/ESPN bid. Not sure what Sankey is supposed to do?

Regarding the specific situation with commentators this weekend, it’s a lame duck year with CBS, what difference does it make?

I have reservations about the deal Sankey made (all with one broadcaster, deal signed before Texas and OU added, etc), but you guys who bitch endlessly need to put things in the proper perspective OR realize that ESPN has no better or worse political leanings than any network offering a deal.
