Exactly. This is nothing more than the latest advance in virtual sets. ESPN makes fabulous use of greenscreen and virtual sets all the time. This is just an upgrade to that technology.

There was a scandal a few years ago when local stations outsourced their weather correspondents to a company with the same weatherman. He would talk and joke with the news anchors, and they never let on he was in a different city, and not on their set with them. He would only be on one station per market. Viewers blew the scam when people traveled around the US, and realized their local weatherman was all over the place in different cities they were traveling to.
