How The NFL’s ESPN Deal Will Crush The Dreams Of New Sports

Published

on


By Leonard Armato, Contributor

The NFL just scored a game-changing touchdown: a 10% equity stake in ESPN, valued at $2-3 billion, in exchange for assets like NFL Network and RedZone. This isn’t just a business deal—it’s an expansion of existing monopoly like power that could suffocate the dreams of emerging sports fighting for fans. As someone who’s built brands like Shaq’s and AVP Beach Volleyball, I see trouble ahead for second-tier leagues and new sports. The NFL’s grip on ESPN, the sports media kingpin, means less room for everyone else.

ForbesWhy The NFL Owning Part Of ESPN Raises Media Independence Concerns

ESPN’s Iron Grip On Sports Media

ESPN isn’t just a network—it’s the destination for sports fans. It commands 31% of linear TV sports viewership. Online, it’s a beast, reaching 175 million unique users monthly—over two-thirds of American adults. When you want scores, highlights, or hot takes, ESPN is the self proclaimed “world wide leader in sports”. It’s massive influence shapes what we watch, cheer for, and talk about. Despite cord cutting, streaming and the fragmentation of sports media, ESPN has kept pace by maintaining its dominance across all platforms.

Now, the NFL goes from ESPN’s most important property to part owner, ESPN’s priorities are clear: protect the NFL Golden Goose at all costs– and above all grow it and protect it. This deal, ties the league’s fortunes to ESPN’s, ensuring NFL content—games, drafts, even off-season drama—gets prime billing. And there’s ample incentive to bury anything newsworthy that might damage the NFL’s reputation. It’s almost unimaginable to envision an NFL fall from grace. That’s bad news for smaller sports craving exposure to grow their fandom.

Why Emerging Sports Are Getting Sidelined

Building a fanbase takes more than great games; it’s about stories, stars, and viral moments which is one of the most difficult things for emerging sports to achieve. ESPN is the ultimate stage for that, but if you’re not in the NFL’s orbit, you’re lucky to get a cameo. Sports like women’s pro volleyball, pro lacrosse, ultimate frisbee, or esports variants are already fighting for scraps. Now, with the NFL and ESPN alliance tighter than ever, those scraps are shrinking. Here’s why:

  • NFL And Major Sport Bias Amplified: The NFL’s equity stake means ESPN will double down on football, from live games to endless analysis, leaving less distribution of live programming opportunities and media coverage for other sports. If ESPN is not covering the NFL the coverage will shift to the other major sports where ESPN has already invested heavily through rights fees. These sports include the NBA, NHL, MLB, US Open Tennis, and college football, among others. All of these are a priority for ESPN and prioritized well above any new or emerging sport.
  • Ad Dollars Follow Football: With advertisers chasing NFL eyeballs, ESPN has paid enormous rights fees to the NFL. In order to claw back that investment they must focus their attention on selling the NFL which means little time and energy to devote to niche sports that don’t move the ad needle—yet.
  • Fandom Feedback Loop: More NFL coverage draws more fans, which justifies more coverage and generates more revenue. New sports can’t break into this cycle without media oxygen and promotion.
  • Building Stars Drives Viewership: Leagues grow as stars emerge. Case in point, the WNBA saw a surge in popularity when Caitlin Clark exploded on the scene in her last year of college and first year in the WNBA.

As the NFL flexes its muscle, it makes it far more difficult for emerging sports to find both distribution for its live matches and journalistic coverage. The NFL has made women’s flag football a priority so ESPN lavishes it with over 33 hours of coverage for events like the NFL Flag Championships, complete with slick production—mics on coaches, highlight reels, the works. Why? Flag football feeds the NFL’s pipeline, growing young fans and eyeing the 2028 Olympics. Women’s Pro Volleyball? It’s got no NFL connection, so it’s pretty much left with few matches, lower tier distribution and relatively no reporting.

The Underdog Fight for Attention

These emerging sports underdogs aren’t just competing with the NFL—they’re battling a media giant now incentivized to prioritize one sport above all. That’s not to mention the other major sports at the top of the food chain like the NBA The WNBA’s rise shows what’s possible with exposure, but it took years of grit, cultural shifts and the support of the NBA. Today’s new sports face a steeper climb. Without ESPN’s spotlight, they miss out on:

  • Casual Fans: Highlights and features turn curious viewers into loyal supporters.
  • Viral Moments: A game-changing play needs ESPN’s platform to go global.
  • Cultural Cachet: Being on SportsCenter makes a sport feel “big-time.”

The NFL’s ESPN deal could turn sports media into a football oligopoly, where only the NFL and other major sports thrive. Flag football gets love because it’s NFL-adjacent, women’s volleyball, despite its Olympic buzz, doesn’t. This isn’t just unfair—it’s a threat to sports diversity.

How New Sports Can Break Through

Hope isn’t lost. Emerging sports can fight back with creativity:

  • Go Direct: Use YouTube, TikTok or X to build fanbases, like women’s sports have done.
  • Tap in Creators as Media Partners: fans are watching less linear TV and creators have never had more influence in culture. Tap into social media and those creators that can help build fandom and stars.
  • Push for Fairness: Regulators might need to ensure media access isn’t monopolized.

In short, the bad news is that it will be difficult for these new and emerging sports to grow in the traditional manner, namely, getting broad TV distribution and media coverage. The NFL and other major sports have practically elbowed them out both for distribution of live events and for media coverage of those events.

The good news is that with the rapid evolution of technology, and particularly with the advent of social media, individuals and even leagues themselves can become media companies and go directly to fans. Moreover, AI will level the playing field by providing expert and scalable capabilities at lightning speed which will arms those with a great product the ability to compete. So while traditional sports media is still a powerful force, all hope is not lost for those emerging sports trying to break through.

The showcase celebrates 20 years of fearless innovation, highlighting breakthrough technologies that empower gamers and creators, while reinforcing ROG’s commitment to redefining gameplay, creation, and competitive performance worldwide.

A wide range of next-generation ROG gaming laptops takes center stage at CES 2026, alongside select flagship innovations such as the ROG G1000 gaming desktop, showcasing world-first engineering, AI-driven performance, and advanced thermal design that elevate gaming and creative experiences.

The G14 GU405 supports up to an NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5080 Laptop GPU, and the G16 GU606 up to  GeForce RTX 5090, with NVIDIA Blackwell architecture, DLSS 4, and Frame Generation.  Max GPU TGP has been increased by up to 23% in manual mode, from 120W to 130W on the G14 and 130W to 160W on the G16. The G14 (GA403) is also available with a next-gen AMD Ryzen™ AI processor, offering Copilot+ certification and local AI execution.

With 50 TOPS of NPU performance and Copilot+, these laptops bring AI-powered acceleration directly to the device for gaming, creating, and multitasking — without relying on the cloud. ROG Intelligent Cooling keeps both models quiet and efficient under load, with a redesigned bottom panel, optimized exhaust vents, and liquid metal on the CPU.

In terms of display, they now feature a new 1100-nit Nebula HDR display with Nebula HDR engine tuning, delivering richer highlights, deeper contrast, and more lifelike HDR visuals, while providing 100% DCI-P3 coverage and Delta E < 1 color accuracy for cinema-grade quality.

ROG has partnered with Kojima Productions to merge high-performance gaming technology with visionary storytelling and artistry. The collaboration celebrates creativity, exploration, and immersive experiences, bringing gamers, creators, and dreamers a collection of devices and peripherals that are as functional as they are collectible.

The ROG Flow Z13-KJP stands at the center of this collaboration, merging two decades of ROG’s gaming innovation with Kojima Productions’ visionary storytelling. Designed to reflect and reimagine the studio’s core values, the device draws deep inspiration from its iconic mascot, Ludens. It is a flexible 2-in-1 powerhouse that transforms into a gaming console, a creator tablet, a workstation, or an ultraportable laptop. Powered by the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor with Radeon 8060S graphics and a 50 TOPS NPU, it delivers desktop-class performance and on-device AI acceleration in a tablet-sized form factor. Its 13.4-inch 2.5K Nebula HDR touchscreen with a 180Hz refresh rate and a 100% DCI-P3 color gamut offers cinematic visuals and ultra-responsive motion, while the detachable keyboard and slim chassis make play and creation possible anywhere.

At its core, the built-in AniMe Holo fan is the world’s first holographic fan system in a prebuilt gaming PC that can project customizable holographic visuals, transforming the environment into a medium of personal expression. The AniMe Holo module is housed in an independent chamber that incorporates the hinge-door design, ensuring airflow does not interfere with the main components’ thermal path and helping reduce overall system noise by limiting vibration from the Holo system. The ROG Thermal Atrium, dedicated for CPU cooling, channels fresh air through 420 mm AIO liquid cooler with three fans and isolated airflow paths, ensuring critical components remain cool and stable during extended gaming sessions. Equipped with ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 / 5080, ROG Strix GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, or AMD Radeon 9070XT GPUs, up to 128GB DDR5 memory, and up to a 4TB PCIe® 5.0 SSD, the G1000 is tuned and ready for peak performance from day one. The 104L ATX ultra tower chassis enhances airflow, accommodates larger cooling hardware, and supports easy maintenance, while the Fan Key provides instant one-touch thermal boost. Customization is extensive with Armoury Crate and Aura Sync, letting users control RGB lighting across GPU, cooling fans, water-cooling blocks, and the AniMe Holo, delivering a system that is as visually striking as it is powerful. With every unit validated for stability and backed by comprehensive ROG service, the G1000 gives gamers and creators the confidence to push limits without compromise.

Strengthening the ROG community in the UAE

Beyond hardware innovation, ROG continues to invest in its regional gaming community through initiatives such as the ROG Elite Program, which rewards loyal gamers with exclusive benefits, early access opportunities, community events, and competitive experiences across the UAE.

ROG Zephyrus laptops: immersive, AI-powered, and ultraportable

Designed for those who need performance on the go, the Zephyrus line-up delivers all-day power and stunning visuals in a sleek, ultraportable chassis. With smart AI features and efficient cooling, it keeps creators and gamers productive and immersed wherever they are.

ROG Zephyrus G14 and G16

This generation’s ROG Zephyrus G14 (GU405/GA403) and ROG Zephyrus G16 (GU606) redefine what compact performance can deliver, featuring next-gen processing power and a new HDR-class display that delivers higher brightness and visual depth for gamers who want more capabilities in the same sleek footprint.

The Zephyrus G14 (GU405) and G16 (GU606) feature Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors, delivering flexible performance and up to 50 TOPS of NPU power for local AI tasks and in-game AI workflows. The G14 GU405 supports up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU, and the G16 GU606 up to  GeForce RTX 5090, with NVIDIA Blackwell architecture, DLSS 4, and Frame Generation.  Max GPU TGP has been increased by up to 23% in manual mode, from 120W to 130W on the G14 and 130W to 160W on the G16. The G14 (GA403) is also available with a next-gen AMD Ryzen AI processor, offering Copilot+ certification and local AI execution.

With 50 TOPS of NPU performance and Copilot+, these laptops bring AI-powered acceleration directly to the device for gaming, creating, and multitasking — without relying on the cloud. ROG Intelligent Cooling keeps both models quiet and efficient under load, with a redesigned bottom panel, optimised exhaust vents, and liquid metal on the CPU.

In terms of display, they now feature a new 1100-nit Nebula HDR display with Nebula HDR engine tuning, delivering richer highlights, deeper contrast, and more lifelike HDR visuals, while providing 100 per cent DCI-P3 coverage and Delta E < 1 color accuracy for cinema-grade quality. Extended battery life ensures productivity throughout the day. The laptop also adds a full-size SD card reader for easy media transfer. Powerful as it is, the G14 features a CNC-milled aluminum chassis with a redesigned Slash lighting and glass-mirror finish, combining performance, portability, and style.

ROG Zephyrus Duo 16

The dual-screen ROG Zephyrus Duo 16 (GX651) takes versatility to the next level. Its dual 3K ROG Nebula HDR OLED touchscreens run at 120Hz with a 0.2ms response time, providing smooth, tear-free visuals while supporting multitasking for gaming, streaming, or creative workflows, and the main panel supports NVIDIA G-SYNC. Powered by the latest Intel processor and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop GPU, it handles demanding games, content creation, and AI workloads with ease. ROG Zephyrus Duo enable five operating modes to suit any scenario, while ROG Intelligent Cooling — featuring a vapour chamber, dual fans, and a dedicated graphite sheet — all combine together to provide the best possible performance, providing ultimate flexibility for work, play, and creation.

ROG x Kojima Productions: a visionary gaming collaboration

ROG has partnered with Kojima Productions to merge high-performance gaming technology with visionary storytelling and artistry. The collaboration celebrates creativity, exploration, and immersive experiences, bringing gamers, creators, and dreamers a collection of devices and peripherals that are as functional as they are collectible.

The ROG Flow Z13-KJP stands at the center of this collaboration, merging two decades of ROG’s gaming innovation with Kojima Productions’ visionary storytelling. Designed to reflect and reimagine the studio’s core values, the device draws deep inspiration from its iconic mascot, Ludens. It is a flexible 2-in-1 powerhouse that transforms into a gaming console, a creator tablet, a workstation, or an ultraportable laptop. Powered by the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor with Radeon 8060S graphics and a 50 TOPS NPU, it delivers desktop-class performance and on-device AI acceleration in a tablet-sized form factor. Its 13.4-inch 2.5K Nebula HDR touchscreen with a 180Hz refresh rate and a 100 per cent DCI-P3 color gamut offers cinematic visuals and ultra-responsive motion, while the detachable keyboard and slim chassis make play and creation possible anywhere. Designed by Yoji Shinkawa, the chassis blends art and engineering into a collectible piece, enhanced with exclusive Kojima Productions packaging, custom Armoury Crate themes, and Ludens-inspired wallpapers.

ROG G1000: a gaming desktop with holographic innovation

The ROG G1000 redefines what a gaming desktop can be, combining extreme performance with show-stopping innovation. At its core, the built-in AniMe Holo fan is the world’s first holographic fan system in a prebuilt gaming PC that can project customizable holographic visuals, transforming the environment into a medium of personal expression. The AniMe Holo module is housed in an independent chamber that incorporates the hinge-door design, ensuring airflow does not interfere with the main components’ thermal path and helping reduce overall system noise by limiting vibration from the Holo system. The ROG Thermal Atrium, dedicated for CPU cooling, channels fresh air through 420 mm AIO liquid cooler with three fans and isolated airflow paths, ensuring critical components remain cool and stable during extended gaming sessions. Equipped with ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 / 5080, ROG Strix GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, or AMD Radeon 9070XT GPUs, up to 128GB DDR5 memory, and up to a 4TB PCIe 5.0 SSD, the G1000 is tuned and ready for peak performance from day one. The 104L ATX ultra tower chassis enhances airflow, accommodates larger cooling hardware, and supports easy maintenance, while the Fan Key provides instant one-touch thermal boost. Customization is extensive with Armoury Crate and Aura Sync, letting users control RGB lighting across GPU, cooling fans, water-cooling blocks, and the AniMe Holo, delivering a system that is as visually striking as it is powerful. With every unit validated for stability and backed by comprehensive ROG service, the G1000 gives gamers and creators the confidence to push limits without compromise.

Strengthening the ROG Community in the UAE

Beyond hardware innovation, ROG continues to invest in its regional gaming community through initiatives such as the ROG Elite Program, which rewards loyal gamers with exclusive benefits, early access opportunities, community events, and competitive experiences across the UAE.

With its latest CES laptop lineup and ongoing community engagement, ROG reinforces its commitment to empowering gamers and creators in the UAE — delivering not just powerful devices, but a connected ecosystem built around performance, creativity, and passion for gaming.
