Fox sports plays it during college basketball games if I recall. Guessing they'd have to buy it back from them?

As a kid, I always liked the little story intro Bob Costas did before it played...it made the game seem like a epic heroic tale instead of just a basketball game

All NBA fans over 40 get the weirdest nostalgia boner over this song.

It’s the weirdest thing.

It's Sunday afternoon. I'm sitting down on the floor in front of our 25" decorative TV. My dad's on the couch. The Celtics are about to come on. The Costas intro.....the music.....the game. There's Larry, and Kevin, and Robert, and DJ. They might have been playing Magic....or MJ....or Barkley....or Ewing.

Yeah, nostalgia. Lot's of it.

I tend to link those guys with the NBA on CBS.

I totally forgot about that. That sure did get you amped for the game.

You're right....at least on the DJ front. NBA on NBC debuted in the 90-91 season. DJ retired the year before...
