SNY and DirecTV

[ProfStata]

From a New York Times brief on DirecTV's new deal with YES, it looks like SNY and DirecTV are talking turkey as the channel will stay up with the sides talking. I don't see SNY going away, especially with Dish Network deciding to pull out of the New York RSN market.

Unless SNY doesn't want to show to the whole country how bad the Mets are doing.

I am sure with Dish dropping SNY and directv renweing YES they will resign with SNY soon. Way too good a marketing opportuniy to say Dish has neither NY team. SNY should be on sale with the mets past couple seasons.

Erm, SNY also carries Big East basketball. they've done a good job diversifying from my awful Mets

Would this also be a great opportunity for SNY to stick it to D* price wise, knowing that they WANT to keep the channel ?
