One World Sports CEO talks about furloughs and future of the network – Nov. 30

Adam Schefter signed a five-year extension with ESPN. The new deal will allow him to do sideline NBA sideline reporting. Don’t worry, he’ll still be doing NFL coverage for the mothership and won’t be taking NBA jobs from other ESPN reporters.
