Wondering if any of the above "extra" ESPN3 channels are going to find a spot on Dish tonight? Spidercam and Sounds of the Game might be fun just so you don't have to listen to the ESPN commentary. :)
 
Which channel for Cleveland Brown fans to watch the game and pretend Ohio State is Cleveland thanks to live renders over the jerseys?
 
If I'm not mistaken, ESPN3 (and WatchESPN) is internet only

In the past I thought that Dish put some of these special "extra" channels on in the 400s or 500s somewhere. If not I'll check them out on ESPN3 online.
 
Nothing in the uplink report. I think they would have made the change before now. They can "uplink" them (the hard part) but make them unavailable to regular subscribers and then send a second hit that simply makes them "free" (the easy part).
 
I am interested to see if the "Command Center" shows up on the Goal Line/Buzzer Beater channel on Dish. Last weekend, Dish did not carry Buzzer Beater on 403, although Directv did and I was able to catch Buzzer Beater on the Watch ESPN App. Looking at the guide data for tonight, it appears that there will be no Command Center on 403...
 
"Every" ESPN channel will have the game in some form. That is, "every" one except for the SEC ESPN Network and Longhorn Network. You get the drift.

My thoughts were confirmed - just logged into the WatchESPN App and the Goal Line channel is active with the "Command Center", Dish does not have that channel active on 403, just the standard slate.
