PaulCrewe Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 So are all those jumping ship to direct TV going to jump back next year when the B1G network and direct go through their contact negotiation. That contact ends next year. Or you hoping a lesson is learned during these negotiations by either party involved Quote Link to comment

Yea it sucks I will probably have to drive into Lincoln to watch the game somewhere. But that's life and I will get over it. I'm sure something will be worked out before to long. After all this weeks game is just Idaho State...... should be over by halftime..... SHOULD! Quote Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Before you jump tv providers, make sure you know who they're fueding with. DISH had the balls to drop AMC, IFC, Sundance and others. DIRECT TV had the balls to dump Viacom, including Comedy Central, MTV and VH1. I'd never even heard about the DISH vs. BIG 10 dust up. In the past they always figured out a compromise at the last second. Not anymore. Quote Link to comment
Husker no ka oi Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Direct TV>>>AT&T universe>>>time Warner>>>dish. I'm sorry why would anyone sign up for dish is beyond me. Quote Link to comment
jsneb83 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Direct TV>>>AT&T universe>>>time Warner>>>dish. I'm sorry why would anyone sign up for dish is beyond me. You having Time Warner ahead of Dish just shows that this post can't be taken seriously. 4 Quote Link to comment

We just went thru a week of no Viacom on time Warner. Didn't bother me a bit. But then again I don't watch MTV, comedy central and the kine Quote Link to comment

Apparently if you have dish, you can't watch the game tomorrow. If you have time Warner you can, hence the time Warner>>>dish Quote Link to comment

They were off for like five days or so, but they're back now. Dish has been without AMC for how long? Like the entire season of Breaking Bad and Hell on Wheels. Quote Link to comment

jsneb83 Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 BTN and Dish have reached an agreement, so Dish subscribers will be able to see the game. http://www.iwantbtn.com/ 1 Quote Link to comment

I love all the Dish vs DirectTV talk. IMO they are pretty equal on programming, but Dish is quite a bit cheaper. I'm not the smartest man in the world, I am getting closer to that title every day though, but I am smart enough to pay less for something that offers basically the same thing as their competition!

PaulCrewe Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 You had to know it was gonna happen sooner than later. Dish has a huge subscriber base in the area of the B1G. Quote Link to comment
