Big Ten Network

[cloudy]

Isn't it great, that what was called one of the bigger upsets in college football history was missed by a HUGE fan following?
I blame BTN and the cable/sat. company's.
I live in Minnesota, and we went through something like this a couple years ago when the Minnesota twins signed a deal to only broadcast on a station called VS(versus). People were VERY p.o.ed. Within a month, they were back on our local Fox network.

Actually wasn't it call Victory Sports? Glad that station didn't happen as I get Fox north here and know it would never been picked up by Uncle charlie!

Comcast for one does not have one ounce of credibility in this entire BTN carriage issue. They are trying to do the exact same thing in Washington with their new RSN:

Sorry for you E* subs, because the App/Mich game was awesome.

Who said that Neb & SD had to pay the premium rate?

Forgive me for not following up that comment. Dish Network Customers wouldn't, but Cableone Customers would. Cableone (If they carry the BTN) covers the entire area.

Did this thread die off? It seems that everyone moved to the Big 10 Notice thread.

Here's to hoping that the Big 10 Network becomes a reality soon on E*!

AND in HD!
IF the uplinked "TEST" channels are indeed the BTN, then are there any Uplinked Test HD channels too?
I am at work, and don't have the link to the Channel guide uplinks.

BTN is on right now. SWEET!

Wow! E* misses only 1 week of action. This exceeds my most optimistic estimate.

 

[Posty-McPOst]

Awesome, awesome, awesome! Next whine: HD! But for today there is joy.
