WP:NOTGUIDE applies here. The subjects are not described as a group, failing WP:LISTN. Also, sources are made of entirely of announcments, just not worthy of an encyclopaedic value. Those arguing for a keep must be advised of WP:USEFUL. I also advise those to create a Fandom page for your favorite sport if you want to save it so much.

Delete with no prejudice for recreation later on. I originally created this article as a spin off of Broadcasting of sports events but the article has devolved into a list of every sports events broadcast in the country without discussing actual contracts. The parent article has an ugly {{globalize}} template and could use help for countries which are not dominated by Caucasians. I'd probably do that later on as my PC is busted. The Philippines has a rich history of this dating back to the 1950s with the broadcast of NCAA basketball championships (Philippines) and even had court cases on who should broadcast the UAAP on the turn of the century.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Already nominated in an AFD so not eligible for Soft Deletion.

Delete per Howard; as with many WP:TV Fliipino articles he had good intentions but nobody has brought any sources (six of them here), and it's as usual a complete free-for-all of poor overall organization and especially for the basketball section which gets down to semi-pro junior leagues only the gamblers and family are watching, a complete failure to understand that a list article should be a list, not a compilation of 'network fan drama'.
