They already have the rights to SEC Football and basketball and have been aggressive in purchasing programming

Their afternoon programming to compete with other station news programs includes top hits such as Family Guy , The Simpsons , and Two and a Half Men .Theyre also looking to expand their local news presence and are operated by the Sun-Sentinel , a local Miami newspaper (both are owned by Tribune Company, who has a similar arrangement in Chicago to the local TV station-local cable news net idea for South Florida that Im posting).Theyve already launched a morning show that has seen its rough patches but improves on its ratings daily, and with the backing of Reebok Washington Redskins #98 ORAKPO Realtree camo Jersey
the Sun-Sentinel could most likely run a 24-hour news station using up-and-coming talent that are fresh from graduation from FIU or UM to possiblyin the futurepromote into the big leagues (which in their case would be a 10 PM newscast).Plus, other than SEC football and basketball, there are no other sports programming from any networks (CW doesn have the rights to any sports coverage) and weekend programming mainly consists of re-runs and movies (and since the CW doesn program on Sunday nights, the occasional Sunday night Heat or Panthers game could find its way onto SFL schedule.).This seems way too perfect not to work, especially since Tribune has experience with their local stations airing local sports teams games (WPIX in New York with Mets, Rangers, and Knicks; WGN in Chicago with the Cubs, White Sox, Bulls, and Blackhawks).As for the other partners, well, let go with the CW affiliates in both markets: WTVX in West Palm Beach, which has no plans for a newscast but would sure welcome one either produced by WSFL but geared towards West Palm Beach (or even an hour-long newscast simulcast to both CW stations done in Ft. Lauderdale servicing both markets since Ft. Lauderdale is in the middle of both.).And for the Ft. Myers-Naples area, since their CW affiliate Reebok Pittsburgh Steelers 43 Troy Polamalu Realtree camo Jersey
WXCW had a newscast produced by CBS affiliate WINK, both stations could contribute and be a member of this loose network, with WINK getting some Marlins, Heat, and Panthers games in the Friday-Saturday-Sunday timeslots that theyd normally air anyways that don interfere with CBS Network programming, plus the money theyd save on their sports bureau.Of course youre thinking this wouldn work, as the station would mainly give out Marlins and Heat propaganda.Not the case.It would be independent of the two organizations, but owned under the same corporate umbrella. The reporting would have to be fair and not abused with negative attacks and editorials about departing free agents or players they want to trade (not at least without a dissenting opinion).The revenues theyd bring in with advertising and their partnerships with these stations would be enough to give the Marlins plenty of money to spend, as well as give the Heat more than enough to cover any luxury tax payments theyd have to make.Of course, all of this is just a pipe dream, but a great idea none the less. If Im the Marlins and Heat and this offer was proposed to me, Id take it in a cocaine heartbeat.What are the chances of this happening?We probably would never see it, but if anyone reads this that can make things Reebok Green Bay Packers 21 Charles Woodson Realtree camo Jersey
happen and get things done, they might want to forward the link to this blog in an e-mail to Mr. Mickey Arison and Mr. Jeffrey Loria, that way at least theyll waste money hiring consultants to tell them exactly what Im saying they should do and telling them for free.And if it does happen, Mr. Arison, Mr. Loria, and their consultants can take all of the credit.This article is also featured onThe Professor's World of Miscellanea
