YES NetworkThis is a featured page

Background: The YES Network (Yankees Entertainment and Sports) is a regional sports network in the New York area. It was created in March 2002 by YankeeNets (who were then, the parent company of the New York Yankees of Major League Baseball, and the New Jersey Nets of the National Basketball Association.) The YES Network was created because the Yankees deal with Cablevision, and the MSG Network expired after the 2001 season. Despite the Nets being part of the creation, their games weren't shown on YES until the start of the 2002-03 NBA season. The Nets games used to be broadcasted by FOX Sports Net New York (Now MSG+), which is another RSN owned and operated by Cablevision.
