Discussion Total control of playoff for ESPN

Is this possible to end up in court as an antitrust / monopoly violation?

I like the expansion, but not the expanded power it'll give ESPN.

Not only that, but at least a couple playoff games are sublet/farmed out to TBS/TNT. They aren’t even all on ESPN currently.
