I don't know what GNET management thinks of it, but rotonews.com looks like something that would be a perfect fit. I hadn't seen it before, but it's a well-designed site that is also well-conceived. Instead of trying to compete head-on with espn.com or sportszone.com, they approach sports from a more specialized directions that give them a smaller, but very committed audience. I've played fantasy leagues in the past and know how important stats are. This is a great way to approach things.

Of course, none of that means the folks who run this are looking for buyouts or mergers.

The first thing this company needs to buy is another company that deals in streaming media. It would compliment Allen's cable network and position them to compete with AOL as well as YHOO and ATHM. As a matter of fact, it would put them ahead of the game. AOL and YHOO, right now, have no cable access and ATHM has no streaming media partner. Too bad RNWK is so big. These two Seattle based companies would compliment each other very well.
