"NFL RedZone" fans might have to forge on without popular host Scott Hanson, who might be leaving the wildly popular show for NBC.
According to Front Office Sports reporter Michael McCarthy, Hanson is at an impasse with NFL Network on a new contract and is being courted by NBC, for which he was a "Gold Zone" host for its Paris Olympics coverage.
This would be a national tragedy. Hanson is a singular talent and he makes RedZone a must-watch for NFL fans. On the other hand, Hanson's earning potential will be much greater on a traditional broadcast network. He deserves every dollar he gets, either way.
