Former MLB Network guy with a TV background. That’s what commissioners are now.

He will be in charge of analyzing expansion to maximize cash.

I hope for everyone's sake that they pronounce his last name "Puh-tee-tee" and not rhyme it with Conway "Twitty".

That is a nice pair of Pe-titties.

Hasnt MLB made many dump moves lately? Like not being able to watch your local teams ever?

New BTN plan sure to rake in the bucks - black out games from teams in your local area, make you buy a ticket or listen on the radio.

It’s brilliant, says the MLB guy.

Leave Barta where he is. He is doing an outstanding job...

Interesting timing, Warren's last day was to be April 17.

With all the Pac12 realignment talk going on, did Big10 Presidents want new Commissioner hired and making decisions related to Oregon/Washington future in next 30 days?

Within the last 24 hours…
- PAC TV deadline is pushed, yet again
- new B1G commish
- PAC assistant commish bails
- Copious amounts of smoke from CU

If realignment is gonna happen you’d think it would be soon.
