Movies and TV DISH Network stops carrying FSN - Page 3

Priest31kc · 09-28-2010, 08:55 PM

WTF? Says Dish might stop carrying FSN starting October 1st. Anyone see this? If so, Im switching to DirecTV ASAP. That means no Mizzou games that are on FSN. **** you Dish.

Sadly if they dont get it resolved soon, i to will be switching back to comcast...no FOX = no House and thats just not going to happen

I originally went to DTV because Dish's customer care pissed me off. Love Directv and they will bend over backwards to keep you happy. Couldn't do without FSN.

It's hardball tactics...

Priest31kc · 10-02-2010, 12:16 AM

Ill give them a week or 2, but if it's not back up by the Mizzou-Texas A&M game, which will probably be on FSN, I am switching to DirecTV. Ill watch the MU-CU game at a friends house I guess.

Well, I signed up for DirecTV this week. I don't care who's right or wrong, I just want to watch football on Saturday.

I'll get the same channels with Direct that I was getting with Dish but I'm getting it $30/mo cheaper. So, it all works out for me.

You couldnt pay me enough money to switch to Dish Notwork... They blow, their programming blows, they are the anti sports satelite provider...

I don't see much difference in the programming between it and DirecTV. I originally switched to Dish because they were going to give me a free DVR and Direct wanted to charge me $500 for one.

Dish does go out a lot more in the rain though.

I've been with DTV for a few years now. I called them a couple weeks and told them to lower my bill $30 per month. They did.

If you are a sports fan, you should never ever have Dish Network.

If anyone is switching to DirecTV, Bob Dole will be happy to give you his account number so we can both get $100 off.

Just as an asides to this thread, many retrans rights are up for negotiation again this fall.

My corporation is already preparing to not be carried by TimeWarner / Brighthouse / Comcast in many markets where we have stations.

It wouldn't surprise me if things got even nastier this time around

Sure-Oz · 10-08-2010, 05:41 PM

I'm pretty pissed that I won't have the MU Colorado game tomorrow night cause if this bullshit....

Are they still trying to come to an agreement?

I will have to go to a buddies to catch this. i never had issues until now with Dish. Oh and FX being gone ****ing sucks

KChiefs1 · 10-08-2010, 05:46 PM

Directv is so much better on their sports coverage.

MichaelH · 10-08-2010, 05:59 PM

Just wondering here, why if you know that your cable or Dish network isn't going to carry NFL Network, MLB NETwork or many FOX sports staions, why the hell keep them? I ask because I guy I work with hates Time Warner Cable because of no NFL or MLB network in our area yet thinks getting Direct TV isn't an option. He isn't ready for that mess as he puts it. WTF?

**Bwana** · 10-08-2010, 06:01 PM

Not a wise idea on the part of Dish.
