Tonight’s The Night At ESPN…DC 2 Goes Live At 11

Tonight at 11, the brand new 194,000-square-foot, five-studio media center called Digital Center 2 goes live. ESPN’s current studio was built in 2004…it’s just a decade old and already is being treated as outdated. There’s more at the link to this Boston Globe story and at the ESPN link below. Thanks to ESPN’s Ray Balton for the heads up.

    Interesting to see that my network, E!, led on this trend. Best of luck to SportsCenter.
