Dish Network and BTN

Looks like BTN and Dish are at a stalemate in negotiations and the station could be dropped on Friday for Dish subscribers if an agreement isn't reached. If you have Dish, that means there's a chance you'll miss the OSU-Miami game this Saturday:

My parents have Dish, but all BTN carries is the shittiest 2-4 B1G games of each week (ESPN/ABC still has all of the good ones) so it's not a huge loss if they negotiate a few weeks into the season, especially during these non conference duds.
Luckily for OSU fans very few of their games make B1G (usually a non conference and a B1G game against a cellar dweller). Poor Indiana and Minnesota are on it all damn season. -

Ugh. I switched to DISH this Summer. Two years ago, when I turned on the OSU/Marshall game, my cable had IU on. Was pissed. Now to find out that the same (missing the OSU game) thing might happen again this year. Dangit! -

Any problems with Direct TV and BTN?
For the most part, I only watch the big 10 channel during wrestling season. -

No problems that I know of. I think it's just Dish.said_aouita;1255563 wrote:Any problems with Direct TV and BTN?

Direct TV losing Comedy central kinda sucked but was not a big deal. Losing B10 network would suck a lot more.gorocks99;1255567 wrote:No problems that I know of. I think it's just Dish.
