Well after 1 week of paying for MLB EI with DirecTV and running a wire to my main TV I can say DirecTV is doing the basic (non super fan package pretty good) I have to agree now that Dish has turned its back on baseball fans which will be the next programing package that Dish will walk away...

Just ordered MLB EI from DirecTV Well I waited thew the free preview and I gave Dish Network every chance but with 5 minutes to go till opening day at Dodger Stadium I have ordered MLB EI from DirecTV. Well its a pain but I will run the coaxial cable from a DirecTV receiver down to my big TV...

I dont have a contract with Dish or Directv but if I am a receiver with DirecTV it will tie me into a contract that I dont want. If I could buy a receiver I would. I have no plans to cut Dish at the moment though just possible reduce there programing to send a message. Over all the past 89...

Funny thing is as I was watching the California Angels and the Oakland A's on DirecTV last night one thing that actually surprised me was that on every commercial break between innings there was a DirecTV plug for MLB EI, NHL CI and NBA LP. When the clock struck 1:00 a.m. eastern I switched...

Well there both blacked out in my part of West Virginia but I am not surprised at least this will stem the loss of subscribes in the Virginia - Maryland areas over baseball. At least Charlie is doing something right baseball wise this week and if and when Dish Gets MLB EI we will see...

Oh I did expect a loss of quality and will try and find a better run of the cable. what I meant to say was I did not expect that amount of quality drop for 15 to 20 feet. Then again running it threw a VHS machine probably did not help. It is only a stop gap measure if I decide I dont want to...

I actually tested running a line from a DirecTV receiver (coaxial cable down to a Sony VHS machine) and then ran the out put into a converter and upped the signal to SVHS and into my DVD recorder while I watched the California Angels loose to the Oakland Athletics. There was a loss of quality...

Ah time to watch the California Angels and Oakland Athletics. Once upon a time I could play on the computer and watch the game. Alas until Dish gets its act together I must retire to the DirecTV nation to enjoy the game

Dish has 4 boxes in my house since 1998 and DirecTV has two boxes in my house since 2005. I am not terminating Dish as its in all the kids bedroom (except one kid has direcTV) but I might consider adding one DirecTV receiver to my main TV. I just dont understand how the owned / lease option...

DirecTV is running adds for $159 a season threw Monday that is why I am giving Charlie until then to pay up or just shut up on the subject

Well Charlie is smart he is launching the HD RSN's in areas where he does not have trouble getting a contract to cover baseball teams. I Notice he is not trying to add MSG HD, FSN NY HD, SNY HD (assuming they exist of course) and no no one wants to add COMCAST MD now that they have no sports...

Yes I need my Dodgers and Angels. In all fairness if I was still living in the Los Angeles area I would not huff and puff so much as this package would be a "want" rather than a "need" but living in West Virginia and watching 3 straight Pirates games. I need my Dodgers / Angels back and...

Oh I would rather have it threw Dish than DirecTV even with out MASN and YES. I am just figuring if I order it threw DirecTV Dish will then make a deal. And I agree now that In demand has made a deal I cant help but thinking Dish now feels they have to make a deal as the Dish customer now...

Well at least Dish is starting to say something. I would love to hear what concessions they have made besides offering to extend the current agreement while they talk. Now I know exactly what it will take to get an agreement. As soon as I go on line and order MLB EI threw DirecTV Dish will...

Just recieved this email from Dish about an hour ago Robert, Thanks for the email. I can certainly understand your frustration regarding the MLB Extra Innings package. We are still negotiating with MLB to bring the Extra Innings package back this season. Unfortunately we do not have any...

Well I dont have access to Dodger Stadium or any other stadium thanks to the Navy putting me in West Virginia but I still want to see them. And when I was stationed in San Diego and Seattle oh boy did I put on the blue and root for them. Went to see the Dodger see the Cubs play at Wrigley...

Funny thing about the three dollar increase in my limited basic cable bill. I get 2 non local West Virginia ABC, and NBC stations, a cable only FOX, a cable only CW and a CBS station plus a public interest channel. IT cost $15,95 for just those. I received a $3 increase specifically to...

And I also remember when Dish did not Carry FSN West 2 (now FSN PRIME TICKET)and many Dodgers Fans complained loud. perhaps if you lost accesses to the Dodgers or the Angels or some team that you like to watch you might feel as we do.

I was angry when I saw this thread at work and fired off an email to ceo@echostar.com. How long can can Charlie and Jim keep playing the cost figure. Last February my Dish bill went up $3, my basic cable (OTA only) went up $3 and my DirecTV bill (basic package) went up $3. Perhaps we should...

I am glad I am out of contract with Dish (Never really had a contract) and DirecTV last summer and can dump either one with out penalty. How ever if your a Yankees fan you really should have signed with DirecTV as all you will get is the WWOR-TV Friday Night Yankees plus any national...

Recieved this emailf rom Dish last night on the subject. . . . Dear Robert, Thank you for your recent e-mail. We are still working very hard to bring the MLB Extra Innings out of market baseball package to Dish Network subscribers. We will post updated information to www.dishnetwork.com as...

They still have not responded to an email to ceo@echostar.com I sent 15 minutes before 1 p.m. eastern. Either they dont want to admit they lost the package or MLB is letting them talk threw the first day of the season

ah OK thanks I thought that might have been it.

FSN Wisconsin (another channel Dish doesn't have) is showing the Los Angeles Dodger's - Milwaukee Brewers game. Directv ran a commercial saying the price jumps $40 on the 8th when the free preview ends. However no word from DirecTV about them being exclusive provider of the package at this...

So in theory then if DirecTV and Dish Network carry EI you could get different telecasts of certain games on different systems. I only ask this as Dish Network did not carry FSN West 2 (now PRIME TICKET) in 2004 but as as a Los Angeles Dodgers fan I got see those games even though the channel...
