Looks like Monday nights might take a digger. This is scarey in my opinion
10:30 PT: Rudy Martzke reports for the USA TODAY News Corp., the parent company of Fox Television will take a one time charge in the second fiscal quarter of 2002 to cover some losses. The move could prompt Fox to allow star NFL analyst John Madden to leave the network and become part of what would be a new Monday Night Football announcing team for ABC. A scenario does exist in which Madden could be allowed out for the 2002 season to join the ABC team, which will televise next season's Super Bowl. If ABC can land Madden, he would be paired with Al Michaels. The fate of Dennis Miller and Dan Fouts would not be so good if Madden came over to ABC. Madden was not available for comment and his agent basically only said Madden is under contract to Fox.
