Dish loses to local cable in being able to carry local area conference basketball games

[odbrv]

I am in Texas and want to watch the Oklahoma / Miami NCAAW basketball game. ESPN2 carries the game on ESP2A(146) but only in Oklahoma and Fl. All the folks in my area who get Suddenlink cable are getting the Oklahoma game. The local cable channels can pick their game by conference. All the local cables in Texas , Kansas, Nebraska , Oklahoma , and Colorado are allowed to select by conference game. DISH is required to carry by allowed state. So on my ESPN2 I am getting Georgetown / Maryland. Thank God Baylor and Teaxas A&M are in Texas . I will be able to see their games . The folks in Oklahoma , Kansas, Coloralo, and Nebraska who have DISH will not. If they had local cable they would get the right conference game. Whoever negotiates programming for DISH with ESPN has lost to the little local cable companies. They should be fired.
