    The Nebraska Football games in on Versus today Cable and DIsh have this channel. Directv does not. I have talked to so many that say they are switching. In this state Nebraska Football is a big deal.

    Did Anyone Notice?

    I get Universal Sports on my Local NBCs local digital sub channel for free over the air. I do not watch the channel as its all reruns so I removed it from my channel list. I wish they would add there local Weather Channel back or something better like Retro TV.

    Thinking about change

    I have had both Dish and Direct. Currently with Direct, I could not live with out the Sports Mix and News Mix channels. Its like a Super Guide where they alway put the BEST sports on the mix so you can quickly find the top games. Even if WGN has a game it somtimes ends up on the mix. Dish ...

    Why doesnt Dtv carry all cinemax?

    DirecTV is more of a SPORTS fans sat provider. That is what the focus on. Movie channels will come after they are done adding more regional sports channels (things I dont ever watch).

    HD DVR Tivo release date?

    I never thought I would see the day . . . The HD Tivos are shipping. The Dish HD DVR 921 is not really shipping. In Todays Retailer Chat for Dish they said they will startup again in 1-2 weeks. So the HD Tivo beat the 921 to market. Wow
