    I don't know about $400 MM, but they are saying they will lose money on them.

    Thank you for not confirming your random 400 million number.

    I thought it was around $250 million http://www.mediaweek.com/mw/content_...a979b2a5dfb6c4

    It's from 1/25 though, so I'm not sure about now.

    Maybe Ebersol should stop spending 800 mill to purchase the television rights. It's just to keep up with ESPN who has just about everything else

    Aaaah, the Olympics. A gigantic cash grab wrapping itself in false, temporary nationalism in order to try and resemble something legitimate. Weeeee.

    Sorry, didn't notice this thread when I created the other one. It's deleted now anyway so it doesn't matter.
