Interesting story on the creation of the Big 10 Network

For those who may have missed it over the weekend, Teddy Greenstein of The Chicago Tribune had an interesting story on how The Big 10 Network came about.

You can get all of the information at the link above, but in 2004, prior to the latest round of esclating fees that the networks today are paying, ESPN actually had a lowball offer to Big 10 Commissioner Jim Delany and that offer eventually gave Big 10 fans The Big 10 Network.
