What a crazy day!

Is there a full moon right around the corner?  Wow, what a crazy day when it comes to sports and the media and i'm not even talking about Big 10 divisions.

#1 - St. Louis Cardnail Baseball is returning to KMOX (AM 1120) in 2011.  This is HUGE news for Cardnail fans all across the Midwest.

#2 As a result of the NFL Network and the National Cable Television Cooperative.("NCTC") reaching an important deal which includes several of the nation's biggest cable providers, Cable One which is the primary cable TV provider in Sioux City, will soon be adding the NFL Network.  It's my understanding that Mediacom is a member of the NCTC, so there may be hope for those who have no other choice but Mediacom, the NFL Network will hopefully soon be added.

#3 - BYU and the ESPN Family of Networks coming to an agreement on a contract that will allow BYU home football games to be televised on one of the many ESPN networks for the next 8 years...WOW!!!  I didn't even think of the ramifications that this could have for the Big 12 until I listened to Matt & Miller on the drive home tonight.  The unsettled future of the Big 12 as it was, just went into double quick sand with BYU announcing this TV deal.  Texas now has the firepower it needs to go independent in 2 or 3 years.
