Sorry if this has already been asked/discussed but i looked back a few pages, couldnt find anything, and figured this would be easier than re-reading 45 pages of various topics


guess i'll have to leave the house and head to a local bar with a dish :beer:

Is it certain that the games will be broadcasted to bars such as Buffalo Wild Wings? Because that will really make my day if it's true.:)

Email to Insight CEO Michael Willner:

Mike-

Thanks so much for not allowing me to view Buckeye football in my own home for almost half the season. What with the quality networks I already receive in my package, like Lifetime, CSPAN2 (Book TV for the win!), QSN and Oxygen, I'd probably be missing too much quality programming watching my favorite thing on TV ever, anyway.

Seriously, though, I have a proposal. You keep the obscene fortune I pay for your service, ditch the aforementioned channels (and I'll throw in a few more, too), charge me $5 more a month and give me the Big Ten Network! Whaddayathink?

Shrewd business, I say!

Either way, it's not like hundreds of thousands of people are going to switch to the first provider that gets the Big Ten Network. I like what you're doing...bide your time...eventually, the guys who have the product everybody wants will cave to you.

Thanks again!

Signed,

Loyal customer 996878787

Then get out of this thread, man. What the hell did you expect to find? Think about it.

Maybe people are broke. Maybe they can't afford to drop 130 on a couple tickets, or go drop $4 a brew somewhere. Maybe they'd like towatch it with their kids, who can't afford it, either. And DirectTV ain't cheap, either.

I expected to find people actually discussing the big ten network. What kind of deals they have reached etc. Not a bunch of people still bitching, when options have been given.

If you are not willing to deal with those options then that is your problem, not anyone else.

As many other posters have pointed out in years past there have been plenty of games that were not on TV, just back less than 10 years ago I remember a game not being on TV anywhere. But because we have been good for the last few years most of our games get picked up, so people got spoiled. Once again you have options, so chose one of those and quit crying about how it isn't fair that the buckeyes have been stolen, or held hostage, or what ever other ridiculous leap you want to make.
