It seems that the Derby, like the Indy 500 and the Penn Relays, carry just enough cachet through their storied histories to draw in the curious. It helps, in the case in the Derby, to be an event that is an excuse to throw a party and wear crazy hats. If NBC could find a way to gin up a reason to party over the Wood Memorial or the Santa Anita Derby, it surely would.

Don't agree that Erin Andrews can't carry her show! As Fans we watch¬ice that her show grew stronger at the end of season. EA's salary should be high as she left for CFB,but also MLB &NFL! She continues to shine in her interview skills and tackles whatever FoX Sports throw at her! This year she will work the Super Bowl so think Fox agrees with her fans that Andrews is a winner. If you follow her then you would know she didn't leave because of the money!(ESPN was offering more $) EA left as she wanted to do more than be kept in the box ESPN wanted her to be in called CFB&Bball !

Erin Andrews does a pretty good job in interviewing. Yeah EA wanted to do NFL sideline reporting I remember reading an article where it stated that she wanted to do sideline reporting for NFL I don't blame her for leaving ESPN pretty much she would be doing CFB&Ball and a little bit of MLB.
Charissa Thompson was already house hold name when she was with Fox Sports before she left for ESPN 2 years ago.
