== History ==
The original SCORE network was the weekend sports service of the Financial News Network which aired sports-themed programming starting in 1985. It was renamed FNN Sports in 1990 when FNN decided to go with a 24-hour feed on weekdays. SCORE was forced to dissolve after CNBC bought out FNN in 1991. SCORE used a sports ticker or crawl to update scores at the bottom of the screen. As it was a co-venture with FNN, a stock ticker was often shown across the bottom of the screen. SCORE provided scores and highlight updates every half-hour.

On June 3, 2002, Frank Smith, Jr. (CEO of Capital Cities Communications) and Lester Jenkins (Then-CEO of Journal Media Group) had a joint news conference and announced their intention of launching an all-new sports channel to rival with other sports channels (in particular ESPN and ABN Sports). After careful planning, They announced that the new network, named Score!, will launch in 2008 on some subchannels owned by Capital Cities and Journal Media Group. In 2013, Smith announced that Score! will go from being a subchannel to becoming a stand-alone cable channel. (Score! was replaced as a subchannel by the launch of Trio Sports Network) And in 2014, Score! received rights to air various NBA Tuesday Night games, NHL Thursday night games,
