Michaels dealt to NBC as Sunday night, 'MNF' lineups set


ESPN gets,
-ability to buy NBC's cable TV rights to golf's next four Ryder Cups
-The rights to show far more Olympic TV highlights on its news shows
-Disney gets back the rights to Oswald the Lucky Rabbit(basically chopped off the ears to create another character called Mickey Mouse)

NBC gets,
Al Michaels(Who will team back up with John Madden)

Who won? I don't think that the football fan will be the winner because now the ESPN Lineup is,
-Tony Kornheiser (co-host of ESPN's PTI talk show and Newspaper Columnist)
-Mike Tirico (Multi Sport Play-by-play announcer)
-Joe Theismann(HOF QB)

Rounding out the MNF lineup,
-Michele Tafoya returns for her third season as a sideline reporter, and
-Suzy Kolber replaces Tafoya fill-in Sam Ryan.

Kornheiser noted he doesn't like to fly, so he'll be supplied supposedly with something bigger than Madden's bus."


USAtoday is the supplier for this article I just shortened it.
