The analogy I'd make is that our current regional events are our version of MLB/NFL/NBA games, etc.

The pilot will be more like a high school basketball game. Which one is more exciting?

I too would like to know where the money is coming from. Knowing the MI's economy is in shambles, I find it hard to believe that sponsors will cover the added cost that will be incurred.
