The company is still in great shape. It's still the most valuable media property in the world. It's still crushing its competitors. And it's still printing money.

But the rumored reason behind the layoffs — the soaring cost of broadcast rights eating into the company's profit margin — is a real concern for the future of the company.

It's also reasons like this that EVERYONE pays more for cable whether they watch ESPN or any sports for that matter. The leagues sure are cashing in though and still charge a fortune to attend a game. ]]> BillsFever21 http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/showthread.php/218992-ESPN-Layoffs-Are-A-Sign-The-Channel-s-Worst-Nightmare-Is-Finally-Coming-True http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/showthread.php/218975-Tiger-Sergio?goto=newpost Wed, 22 May 2013 12:34:44 GMT if they have any balls they will put them together the first two days of the US Open.
