New England Sports Network

|
The New England Sports Network is a regional cable television network that covers the six New England states. The Boston Red Sox are a co-founder and owner of 80% NESN, with the Boston Bruins owning the other 20%. NESN broadcasts regional college games, non-national broadcasts of Red Sox and Bruins games, as well as analysis programs focusing on New England sports.
During Red Sox season, NESN's pre- and post-game shows are quite in-depth, featuring a number of guests from the team and organization. Red Sox players are profiled; Jerry Remy will check in with his take on the upcoming game; Theo Epstein and Larry Lucchino appear on a weekly basis, as well as regular commentary from legends such as Jim Rice, Sam Horn, Bob Tewksbury, and Dennis Eckersley. NESN is truly the media voice of Red Sox Nation, and most Sox fans greatly prefer NESN's coverage over that of other networks such as FOX and ESPN due to the local slant.
