ESPN gets MNF in 2006

This is almost as shocking as when Fox grabbed the NFC broadcast rights from under CBS' nose. MNF on ABC has been an institution, although since ESPN and ABC are both owned by Disney, don't expect the production style to change significantly. Meanwhile, NBC picks up the Sunday Night Games that ESPN used to air, giving all the major networks except for ABC some NFL games to broadcast. Apparently, the NFL is still looking to sell the rights to late season Saturday night games and possibly some Thursday games, too, so ABC may stay in the fold.
