NBC Sports on CNBC

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki

CNBC occasionally serves as an outlet for NBC Sports programming. Mainly, this has occurred on weekends, especially the afternoon, and its coverage is purposefully limited away from any part of the American trading day on weekdays.

Consistent programming includes the Premier League and the Olympics.
