With the announcement yesterday of this new network for the mets, has anyone heard if D* has agreed to carry this channel next spring?

Well, they did say in Newsday that:

"We anticipate that come our launch, we will be fully distributed to our entire footprint."

I hope they mean that to include satellite subscribers, but seeing as Comcast and Time Warner are involved, it could just mean cable only. Of course, the Mets do own the majority stake, so they might force satellite availability to reach the largest market. Who knows. All the papers seem to be concerned with Cablevision carriage seeing as how they had an epic battle with YES.

...and rightly so, I might add. BS like this (especially as I'm a Met fan!) is the exact reason my house is Dolan-free.
