Versus to Become the NBC Sports Network on Jan 2nd
 

I hope they still run fishing, hunting, shooting and other outdoors shows.

Like we really need more talking heads pontificating about the next NFL game......:(


I look forward to the early Saturday morning fishing shows.

I know what you mean and I was asking the same thing. I sure hope they still run those shows. I fish on Saturdays but watch them Friday evenings and Sundays.

Versus will be the NFL network, according to what I have heard.

NBC is making be bucks on the Sunday night game. Thursday night game will be the next prize for NBC.

I heard it was going to be MSNBC that takes over Versus. First show is Rachel Maddow and Ed Schultz throwing marshmellows at water buffalo:). Second show is Chris Mathews hunting wild boar with beanbags. It's supposed to be very exciting, I heard it sent a "thrill up his leg":eek:.
They are trying to convince Keith Oberman to return for some "Hillbilly hand fishing"; but they are still in negotiations:rolleyes:.

Some of the outtakes will be shown on the show "When vacations go wrong":D.

Looks like they've been trending towards the mainstream for a while now. Doesn't sound good for those of us who appreciated the old OLN channel....:(
