Scott Hanson's ‘NFL RedZone' contract talks were ‘a knockdown drag-out negotiation'
'Seven hours of commercial-free football' nearly had a different voice for next season. Scott Hanson, the host of 'NFL RedZone,' questioned if he would return to his role before signing an extension to return for a 17th year. 'There was a time when I thought 'I don't know if this is going to happen,'' Hanson said on the 'SI Media Podcast with Jimmy Traina' this week. 'It was not my intention to have it go that direction. But you have to be willing for that eventuality or that possibility.' Advertisement 3 Scott Hanson at Super Bowl LI AP While Hanson did not share the financial details of his new contract, he confirmed that his extension will have him be the face of NFL Network's 'RedZone,' in which he shows live look-ins and every touchdown for seven-plus straight hours on Sundays though at least his 20th season. The negotiations weren't easy, though, with Hanson likening himself to an NFL free agent who wants to stay with his current team even as other landing spots see his true value. Advertisement 'The NFL, as they wont to do, they are very tough negotiators,' Hanson said. 'There was quite a knockdown drag-out negotiation, but I'm thrilled to be back. Thrilled that we were able to come to an agreement.' There was speculation Hanson was considering leaving for NBC after his Olympics whiparound show, 'GoldZone.' 3 Scott Hanson signing off the air of RedZone in 2017. NFL Hanson put those rumors to bed. Advertisement 'My contract was up, that was reported in public. It was coming up, and we were negotiating. That was true,' he said, 'There was a feel I was going to leave for NBC. Well, it was conflated with what I did with GoldZone for the Paris Olympics last summer, and the fact that I was and we were in the middle of a negotiation with NBC to come back and do future GoldZones. I think some people got part of the truth and reported that NBC was going to pull Scott Hanson away.' 3 NFL Network's Scott Hanson NFL Instead, he'll be back to his Sunday touchdown marathons on 'RedZone,' with a new season beginning on Sept. 7.

#SHOWBIZ: HK-based actress Angie Cheong tearfully reflects on hardship of being a single mum
HONG KONG: When Malaysian actress Angie Cheong, based in Hong Kong, adopted her son Hanson in 2006, he was just two years old and she was fully aware he suffered from congenital heart disease. That, however, didn't deter her from standing by him through every challenge. She even put her acting career on hold in 2018 to care for Hanson as he underwent heart surgery. In a recent video shared on Xiaohongshu, Cheong opened up about the struggles of being a single mother, admitting it's an incredibly demanding responsibility. "They say single mums are strong, but no one realises that behind that strength is really just putting on a brave face," the 54-year-old explained. The actress, who was crowned Miss Chinese Malaysia in 1992, then broke down in tears as she reflected on the past 19 years of hardship. She confessed that, given the choice, she wouldn't want to bear the burden alone. "I have to earn money, help with homework, be a driver, a nanny, and a nurse," she said. "If given a choice, who would want to shoulder everything alone? I'm afraid of not providing enough for my child and often feel guilty for not spending enough time with him," she added. Cheong shared that she had once taught her son that true courage lies in admitting one's vulnerability. "It hasn't been easy for Mum to raise you," she said as she embraced him.

Photos: Angie Cheong/Instagram, Angie Cheong/Xiaohongshu (Red Note) When Hong Kong-based Malaysian actress Angie Cheong adopted her then two-year-old son Hanson in 2006, she was fully aware that he suffered from congenital heart disease. But that didn't stop her from standing by his side through every challenge – even putting her acting career on hold in 2018 to care for Hanson as he underwent heart surgery. In a recent video on Xiaohongshu, Cheong opened up about the struggles of being a single mother, admitting that it's an incredibly challenging responsibility. 'They say single mums are strong, but no one (realises) that behind that strength is really just putting on a brave face,' the 54-year-old said. The actress, who was crowned Miss Chinese Malaysia in 1992, then broke down in tears as she reflected on the past 19 years of hardship, admitting that if given the choice, she wouldn't want to carry the burden alone. She once shared her hopes of finding a man who would love and treat Hanson as his own son in a previous interview. 'I have to earn money, help with homework, be a driver, a nanny and a nurse. 'If given a choice, who would want to shoulder everything alone? I'm afraid of not providing enough for my child and often feel guilty for not spending enough time with him,' she said. Seeing his mother cry, Hanson, now 21, moved forward to comfort her, saying: 'Mum, don't cry. I'm here.' Cheong then said she had once taught her son true courage lies in admitting one's vulnerability – a lesson that came full circle as she allowed herself to be emotionally open in front of him. 'It hasn't been easy for mum to raise you,' she said as she embraced him.
