ESPN reaches multi-year extension to air NFL Draft as well as additional rights for DTC service
ESPN will continue to broadcast the NFL Draft as well as obtaining new digital rights for its upcoming direct-to-consumer service. The two agreements were announced Wednesday morning, two hours before the Walt Disney Company announced its third-quarter earnings. It also came after the NFL and ESPN announced a nonbinding agreement Tuesday night in which ESPN will acquire the NFL Network and other league media assets while the NFL gets a 10% equity stake in ESPN. ESPN has aired the NFL Draft since 1980, when the league's annual selection meeting took place at the New York Sheraton Hotel. Back then, the draft was two days (Tuesday and Wednesday) and took 12 rounds. Next year's draft will be in Pittsburgh and is expected to attract massive crowds over the three days. The first round has had its own night since 2010. ESPN and ABC will each have their own telecasts of the first three rounds on Thursday and Friday. ABC will simulcast ESPN's coverage of the final four rounds on Saturday. Besides ESPN's direct-to-consumer service, Disney+ and Hulu will also stream the ESPN, ABC, and ESPN Deportes' feeds under the multi-year agreement. The draft will also continue to be aired on NFL Network. 'We've been talking about the draft since last year and how we continue to build on that. ESPN has been a partner in that from day one, bringing, the fans closer to that event and building that event into one of the most popular events on the sporting calendar, which is incredible if you think back a few decades,' NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell told The Associated Press. 'We know that relationship works, and we're proud that ESPN is going to continue to be a partner.' ESPN will also produce a daily show leading up to the NFL Draft that will begin the day after the Super Bowl. That program will air most days on ESPN2, as well as being available on the direct-to-consumer service. ESPN has also reached a licensing agreement that allows for additional NFL content and interactive features, including stats, fantasy football team performance and legalized sports betting information and tracking. It also allows ESPN to sell and bundle NFL+ Premium, the league's direct-to-consumer product that includes out-of-market preseason games and replays of full games. There will also be expanded highlight rights for the ESPN direct-to-consumer service and Disney+. 'This will make the fan experience much stronger. The goal for ESPN when they launch the services is to create something that doesn't exist on linear (television) because the technology enables it," Disney CEO Bob Iger said to AP. "We've talked about personalization and personalized SportsCenter and the ability to essentially invent statistics and to tie betting to some of the programming.' ___ AP NFL: Joe Reedy, The Associated Press

ESPN Deportes interpreter refuses to translate Shane Gillis's joke about Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson
Comedian Shane Gillis' monologue at the ESPY Awards has drawn both praise and criticism from Wednesday's audience, but the biggest response may have been a moment of stunned silence from ESPN Deportes' translator. As revealed by Jason Krump, a sportswriter and contributor to Washington State 's athletics website, the interpreter abruptly halted his translation of Gillis' joke about North Carolina football coach Bill Belichick and his 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson. After joking about the $17 million fraud and gambling scheme that led to the arrest, conviction and imprisonment of Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani's interpreter, Gillis then turned his attention to the former New England Patriots head coach. 'A bookie is what Bill Belichick reads to his girlfriend before bedtime,' Gillis said, transitioning from a gambling bit. 'They read, 'Very horny caterpillar,' 'The Little Engine That Could But Needed A Pill First,' and of course, the classic, 'Good Night Boobs.' 'Also, I'm not trashing Bill Belichick,' he continued. 'He is 73 years old and dating a hot 24-year-old. People are criticizing him. 'What happened to this country? We used to be a great country. He won six Super Bowls. He's dating a hot 24-year-old. Maybe if you guys won six Super Bowls you wouldn't be sitting next to a fat ugly dog wife.' It was at this point that the ESPN Deportes' translator ceased with his interpretation, as heard in the clip shared by Krump. The audience at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles was nearly as quiet as the interpreter, prompting Gillis to pass the blame onto ESPN's parent company. 'They let me do it. This is Disney. They allowed that,' Gillis laughed. 'Yeah, we should've taken that out. I had doubts going into that. That didn't work all week.' Daily Mail has reached out to ESPN spokespeople for comment. Belichick's girlfriend also caught some shrapnel from 53-year-old rapper, Snoop Dogg. 'I've been a football fan for a long, long time,' the California man born Calvin Broadus Jr. told the ESPY audience. 'I remember back when the Cowboys were good. I remember back when the Chiefs were bad. And I remember, what was it, Bill Belichick's girlfriend wasn't even born yet.'
