Dayam! Didn't see that coming.
I wonder how different the broadcasts will be. Are they keeping the same crews for the pre and post or starting over?

I maybe wrong but I'm thinking that they are referring to the national NBC Sports Network, not the local ones like NBC Sports Chicago. There are local outlets like the one we have here Chicago all over the country.....no way USA Network could handle all that programming.

I believe that is correct....this article is from the Mercury News in the SF Bay area, and states exactly that: Warriors, Giants, A's, and Sharks games will not be affected.

With NBC Sports Network shutting down, what happens to Giants, A’s, Warriors, Sharks games?

NBC Sports Network plans to move programming such as national NHL games, NASCAR to USA Network this year.

Correct,local sports broadcasts should remain the same.
