Fox Sports 1

[Deadlocked]

It dont need Uplink Mojo, since Speed is becoming Fox Sports 1 the only change that will be done is the channel name will be updated. And that can happen next Wednesday, its not a big deal.

Guide info needs to be updated though...

Wonder if they will work in FS2 HD any time?

Yes it does.....until 3PM SATURDAY.

And well past it. A ton of UFC stuff. I saw an AFL game in there though.

Hummm..... Maybe your EPG needs some refresh or DISH changed back to the FUEL programming until saturday. I really saw the FS2 programming on my EPG.

I guess on Saturday we will find out about fs 2 and fxx...

I like many others thought all 3 would be included in negotiations

I need fxx though. ..the league will be back soon

We'll have Fuel (guide already has the info filled in), FXX doesn't launch until Sep.

I was looking at the Dish website for programming. Maybe that needs to be updated too.

Im guessing FS2 stays SD for awhile, Fuel is SD on several other providers too. I see FXX launching soon on Dish in HD though. I'm not too worried about FS2 being HD at this point.

Wonder if Dish will leave Fuel(FoxSports 2) in the AT250 or offer it in the AT200 package.

I see a ton of UEFA Champions League programming for next week on Fuel. That made me think that it was going to convert to FS2 on Dish. They've never shown UEFA programming on Fuel before, but from what I understand, FS1 and FS2 were going to carry the Champions League and Europa League soccer that they owned the rights to and used to show on Fox Soccer Channel.

Dish reps on Facebook just confirmed the FS1 deal. It will as expected be on channel 150 and AT 200 and up package. Still no " official " response on FS2

This "Fox Sports 1" sounds familiar. I think they may have shown an ad for it once on Fuel. Maybe twice.

The best thing that could happen is if the diehard sports fans move to DTV and Comcast, and the non-sports fanatics stay with Dish and its lower rates. Save $7 a month with no ESPN. There is so much sports programming without ESPN anyway!!

I still think Charlie will sign with Fox Sports and then use it to threaten ESPN during negotiations.

Dish is already missing channels compared to DTV (ESPNU-HD, YES, Sportsnet-NY, MLB EI, NFL ST) but gives subs no discounts compared to DTV. If ESPN was cut off Charlie would pocket the $$, not give it back to subs.

Fox Sports 2 is replacing Fuel and will be on channel 398.

So it is staying in AT250? Either way I'm glad we will be covered if they use FS2 for college football. Now we just need word on FXX.

FXX is replacing Fox Soccer and will be on 390 starting 9/2.
