They decide to keep both CBS and NBC essentially with their same packages, CBS airing the NFC games and NBC airing the AFC games.

And on top of sourcing all the energy, building, and operating these data centers, Crusoe has built a huge amount of software and orchestration tooling on top to make it easy for developers to build AI applications, something that many people struggle with when using traditional hyperscalers.

And they also have a second offering, which is their data center business, where they handle all the physical build-out and operations for the very largest AI companies in the world, including many of the tools that you use every day.

But their real secret weapon is speed.

While the industry average to bring a data center online is seven years, Crusoe has compressed that entire lifecycle down to just one year.

Oh, let's go to Monday night.

So they got CBS, they've got NBC.

Remember ABC?

The accepted thinking at the time was like, oh, sports are perfect for Sunday afternoons, but like the core business of the television networks... Right.
