thats good news. It will be kind of funny and sad if they do make a deal with rainbow for voom especially since cablevision has to this point not decided to launch on there own systems yet.

Would it be correct to assume the deal with fox also include the fox owned RSNs?

Nothing is final but I would indeed expect fox owned RSNs both SD and HD to be on Verizon FIOS TV.

Also keep in mind that this stuff is small compared to what will be made public at some point in time. Lets just say if your a sports fan (besides the NFL) you would dump even the best provider for FIOS TV.

I am salivating right now....

If your a staff member look in the staff forums for more. Also anything in the staff forums must stay in the staff forums. Sorry fellow non staff members.

Man your teasing us to much!!!
NOw i'm thinking what the hell else they could do.
Perhaps show every avaialbe HD RSN when you sigh up for the NBALP,NHLCI or MLBEI? Show past games ondemand for a day after played? Perhaps a spin on the mosaic channel that dish now offers and directv does with Sunday ticket. Come on just a clue.

seriously, thats not right. now everyone wants to know what else is going to be on, Longhorn thats such a tease. I would have been happier not knowing that the staff members had rights to this type of exclusive content. can you at least put it in the pub?

I must say I've got one big stiffy thinking about all these HD channels.
