This Broadcast Is Brought to You By...

[Klesta]

Once again, Klesta knew that the success of either of his prospective teams, owned by the Sith Inquisitor, and their associated farm teams, depended on a multitude of factors, including but not limited to, marketing and media coverage. Sure, a stadium with ergonomically-designed seating would help with the gate receipts, actually, two stadiums, the main one for the parent teams on Hosnian Prime and the second one for the farm teams on Ziost, but he knew that gate receipts alone would not suffice. Concessions for both stadiums, as well as broadcasting rights, were to be - and he knew he couldn't rely on the media arm of the Sith Inquisitor beyond the Caldera itself, so he had to field requests for information which, if satisfactory, could be turned into a formal proposition and, from there, a broadcasting contract. But this wasn't a business where the lawyers he had were adequate: most of his lawyers were either specialized in libel or specialized in workplace health and safety. So, while he was busy combing the Ziost bar for sports law firms, Tiffany still thought that, due to the Sith-Mando alliance, perhaps getting the teams broadcast across Mando-land would be a viable idea.

Subject: Bolo-ball roadcasting rights in Mandalorian territory

Because the next season of the Galactic Bolo-Ball League has not yet started, the Hosnian Prime Venomous Agendas are looking for broadcasting partners; it appears the main broadcasting channels of the GBBL are limited in scope. In order to have a wider coverage, we would like to enter a broadcasting deal with the MGA. Please let us know what works for you.

A broadcasting deal for Bolo-Ball? The only thing that gave him pause was it coming from Sith Space. But the Mando'ade loved the beautiful game almost as much as they liked arguing over the title of Mand'alor or drinking. Plus, it gave them another thing to unite around, the indisputable fact that the bolo-ball teams in Mandalorian Space were head and shoulders better than any other in the Galaxy.

Kresh's large fingers tapped across the keyboard.

Klesta,

The MGA would love to broadcast your games on our channels. As long as the game times and time-zones don't directly interfere with our own Bolo-Ball games or other important channels we would love to have you here! We could set up a meeting in person on the planet if you would like.

Best,
Kresh Danner
CEO of MGA

So the Jawa held no illusions as to the success of his prospective Venomous Agendas against Mando teams. [member="Kresh Danner"] described the Mandos' attitude over bolo-ball as being fanatical, and perhaps comparing it to the last alor'utai was a rather apt comparison, perhaps it was worth going to Concord Dawn to get the deal done. After so much delay, he owed the Mandos as much. But it was either he hosted Kresh on Hosnian Prime, he would do so on Ziost or he would travel to Concord Dawn. He hoped to be able to at least snatch a few timeslots according to when they would be going to play Mando teams. Any games between non-Mando teams would probably have to be negotiated with the Galactic Bolo-Ball League, and not necessarily with the teams; it would probably be better to try SCNN if he wanted a channel that could guarantee all Venomous Agendas bolo-ball games would be played. Nevertheless, he answered Kresh's message, as he went off preparing his office on Ziost to receive him, having settled on Ziost. And, hopefully, Mando viewers would want to see a few non-Mando bolo-ball teams, at least when they are playing Mando teams.

Kresh,

I am waiting to see you in our Ziost office, it's closer to Mando space than Hosnian Prime (which is close to Alliance space in the Core) and I will make sure I will get to the meeting prepared.
