I’m away from my computer and not able to post the complete Fox Sports press release on its Saturday Primetime schedule. It starts this Saturday, April 14 with the NASCAR Sprint Cup event in Texas and goes all the way to December 8.
Fox Sports will fill 28 out of the 32 week span with 8 consecutive weeks of MLB to be titled “Baseball Night in America” (yes, a shot at NBC), four NASCAR races, four UFC events, the World Series and college football including the Big Ten Championship.
