You forgot **** you CSN. :) Nothing wrong with cursing and being pissed, so long as it goes both ways. That's constructive.
The biggest reason I pay a monthly cable bill is to watch the local professional sports teams. To me, that should be a priority on the provider's...
Stop making excuses for the providers. That's what you can do. Stop acting like a PR specialist for them. ClutchFans is a pretty big deal. So is...
OK, I'll revise that statement to PR campaign, if the exact verbage is that important to you. I apologize that we had different definitions of "ad...
I'd be fired in about a minute if I worked for Comcast. Wouldn't take very long for them to find some very inflammatory statements I've made about...
We have different priorities. You're looking at how it specifically impacts you. I'm looking at it from a broader standpoint of getting a deal...
Huh? Not sure what you're getting at. Of courses the providers pass those costs to customers. The bill you're paying now partly reflects similar...
In other words, hush money. Nothing matters, at least to me, other than getting a deal done. The discount they give you is pennies on their...
It's disingenuous because they don't mention their own role in this. The Astros are competing with the Rangers on the field, and television...
Understood. I'm not saying there aren't lies being told on the CSN Houston side. There certainly are. My point, as it always has been, is that...
You missed my entire point. Of course CSN is asking for a higher price than the providers are willing to pay. Otherwise, there would be a deal....
Can you point me in the direction of a provider statement that even mentions the price relative to the tier issue? Genuinely curious. Almost...
Fair and plausible perspective. But at the same time, based on those precedents, I have a hard time making the CSN Houston side out to be monsters...
This is one of the more bizarre games I've ever seen. Michigan is playing great, no doubt, but it honestly looks like Florida doesn't even care....
Again, if that's the case, I'd like for DirecTV to have the decency to come out and say it themselves. They haven't. Don't give these corporate,...
I don't think the LHN is an appropriate parallel because a university-specific sports network has never been done before. There's no precedent....
Two things: 1.) As I said, I want to see DirecTV and others be that honest here, and I want fans to hold them to that standard just as they do...
Go read the thread in the GARM. Any time Hutchings, Crane, or anyone from CSN opens their mouth, you immediately have dozens of rabid fans...
Show me, then. Don't just assume or tell me "pretty sure". That's my biggest problem in this -- people light into CSN over not being honest, all...
Eh, that was a horrible matchup for Marquette. Terrible 3-point shooting team against a great zone. Florida and Michigan each have far better...
