No.

If the dish contract was "exclusive", the network would only be worth about $100million per year total with the given pricing structure. ESPN takes half -- and the rest is split 15 ways. So, it would only be worth $3mil/team in that regard...

It's going to end up being worth $20mil+ per year per team... probably from very early on...
