How Will This Effect The 3 People That Watch NBATV? August 20, 2007

I guess this is kinda interesting: NBA TV is selling out to an unknown third party (it better not be SkyNet) I know we all watch NBA TV, like duh. But I mean for those that actually like the whole channel: Any hands?
Note: I think NBA TV is fantasic where the amazing happens. But really? Besides the games and morning round up of highlights, all their other stuff combined really never got my juices flowing, unlike porn. A lot of time I’ve found their analysis segments feel like filler and besides always hilarious Fred “the original Mad Dog” Carter, I never thought anyone on the network was worth an ear—maybe Rick Kamla… maybe.
The documentaries and historical shows are still cool in my books, and I’m betting the new show runners will obviously (I better hope they do!) continue to keep it going. It’s the day the day stuff that I’m very “not caring”.
BUT! I do have a fair question: what happens for us Canadians and Raptors TV? Will they be replaced as well? Perhaps they already knew about it, in cutting out Norma Wick last month as preparation for fresh blood? I only ask because we really need to update and/or destroy some of the segments that’s on RTV. I won’t go into specifics, but one of them I think is called “Double Dribble” or some shit where Eric Smith and Paul Jones do that PTI-like arguing thing where 1/3 of the screen is the topics… you know the deal. They argue, a buzzer is buzzed and that’s it. Please kill it now. Thanks!

I like that Double Dribble show. In fact, this might not be saying much (because the quality on many Raptors TV shows isn’t great) but I think DD is the best show that channel has.
