Dish/Fox Sports 1 NCAA Football Dispute?

[bigjohnok]

When your company is based in Denver, you don't blackout the Colorado/Colorado State game.

My concern is that it's a special deal for that 1 game but it does say "The Dish Network and Fox Sports 1, the cable arm of Fox Sports that premiered nationally 13 months ago, have reached a financial agreement regarding college-football coverage." in the article which seems more genralized.

Holy hell at this level of stupidity.

Speculation time...who caved?

My question is now that this has been resolved do the plans still stand to launch Fox Sports 2 in HD as was announced to retailers last month?

 

[bluegras]

that is a good question to ask scott

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

They won't answer questions like that until a channel is officially launched.

Of course you can.

Whether they will accommodate you is the question.

Of course you can.

Whether they will accommodate you is the question.

I only really ask for anything if there is a dispute that concerns me. Which means twice this year so I think I'll not press my luck since it's already worked out.

Was this necessary?

Whatever, whatever. It's over and done.

Just because Dish HQ is in Colorado doesn't mean it shouldn't be blackout. Plus this is FOX were talking about.
But it doesn't matter since it's settled already. But who knows if they agreed for FS2 HD.

Are you sure? I noticed next week college games and a UFC event still say "Event Not Availiable".

That's not uncommon for sporting events, as they can change on a moments notice or even be TBA
