Sassan,
So with you in Columbus and me in Ohio as well, do you get channel 437 sportsouth with the MSP? Thanks. I do like the S.E.C. because I am from Tennessee originally and I have nothing against the Bucks. Tressel runs a class football team no doubt.

You've had that question answered already. SportsSouth is the old Turner South Network and is only available in Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina and parts of North Carolina. You are not going to get it in Ohio...

For the record, I called yesterday and added the MSP for $69/year instead of $7/mo. Saves $15, but hey, its better than saving 0.

Tried a Dish Chat session, and they told me that they don't offer the yearly price for the MSP, insisting that it is $7 month. I'll try the chat session later.

I would be curious to know if Dish will ever add the new Comcast Sports Houston, since they already offer other Comcast networks on the Mulitsport. I've heard Comcast plays hardball trying to keep these type channels on their system and their system only but one can dream, cause I won't ever go back to Comcrap.

Right now, there is not much value in picking up this network as they do not have contracts with any professional sporting teams. They only show college and high school sports. However, it has been rumored that the Astros and Rockets might team up and break away from Fox Sports Houston to get a bigger broadcasting rights deal. As an alternative to forming their own network, they could go to Comcast Sports Houston.

Probably the same time they get CSS... so... never

This page gives, I think, all the channels as someone else posted.

MultiSport Package - From DISH Network

Seems like an old link. I'm currently subscribed to AT120+. Can anyone here confirm that I'll get NFL Network by adding the Multi-Sports pack? I know I'll get NFL RedZone but what about NFL Network (Channel 154)?

That would be great as it would save me $ from not having to upgrade to AT200.

Yea, they just show the most exciting football team in Houston, the University of Houston Cougars. As a 6 yr season ticket holder this channel is something I want very much for viewing road games. They show alot of CUSA sporting events.

Yes, you do.

Yes, you do.

Called E* yesterday to add the MultiSport package (website wouldn't let me add it for some reason) and, sure enough, I now have channels 154 and 155. Just in time for me to watch by beloved Redskins. Thanks for your help!
