We're basically 50/50 partners with ESPN, correct?

I'm assuming we split it down the middle after ESPN claims their operating expenses?

Is there room to grow the profits, or are we actually peaking at birth? Because if that's the case that will not be good for us in the long run.

Makes me wonder about who will be keeping the books.

Our contract with ESPN is for what, 15 yrs? If I remember correctly it is not negotiable even if we add two more teams.

What does that tell us?

That's just for subscription fees and advertising. Monies are still to made from CBS t.v. rights, bowl games, etc., etc., etc.

We don't know for sure how the money will be apportioned since there are blind spots we don't know about. It's educated guessing right now but the safe assumption is we all will be quite comfortable soon.
