No ESPN or SEC Network on DISH or SlingTV starting 1 Oct due to contract renewal dispute

That's terrible. I pay $10,000 a month for cable, but I know I'm safe from this ever happening

Cable what's that? I'm getting one of those fancy C Band satellites

Wut.

Probably cheaper to buy your own satellite.

Yikes… on a Saturday of all days

Dish will lose a ton of customers over this.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

I have Dish and have since 2000. I am mad as hell. Absolutely BS.

They shouldn't, Dish is fighting back against a huge price increase from Disney. There will be a lot of pressure though.

They’ll miraculously figure it out. These carriage disputes suck. Disney, Fox, Paramount, Universal etc have all been pulling this for years.

I have Dish also and their lineup has the 11:00 game on the programming grid for today. Right now they’re running a PSA about the ongoing negotiations.

Is there any reason to have cable nowadays except for sports? With all the streaming options that cost $5 - $10 a month, sports is basically the only thing keeping cable relevant

It’s the only reason why I have it

 

[PEPPERJAX]

If sling can’t figure it out by next week then I will be dropping them. I am assuming YouTube TV is working?

I am today years old when I found out you can't watch espn with the Disney+ espn+ bundle.

When the leagues finally bleed ESPN/TBS/Fox/Paramount dry, I’m sure they’ll pick up talent and production crew for their own broadcasts.

By then we shouldn’t have to concern ourselves with this crap.

SEC network has the 11:00 game listed on the grid but no SEC Nation. This sucks

I have Hulu Live so I can cancel after the season. My wife doesn’t watch cable, so I’m paying $70~/month just to watch Tennessee football

 

[savannahfan]

The ownership of DISH takes no sh-t. One game may be missed but it's like a game of chicken. Who will blink first. DISH has hds these "head butting episodes" before. They will get worked out, but could miss one game or so.

Same here and maybe if all the companies would stop trying to line their pockets this wouldn’t be such an issue. Never affected sling before to my knowledge. Highly pissed but at least it’s an off week for the VOLS.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Very odd that these negotiations did take place before the season began. Why do this 4 games into the year?

 

[Jbob1871]

Dish and sling today. HULU and UTUBE tomorrow. UGH!
