I have had Comcast for 25 years but if this isn't resolved in the next few weeks I might choose a different carrier...

I have four Big 10 stations. Larry Scott never wanted me to see his product, but thank God that fucker is off in a country club somewhere telling everyone how college level Olympic Sports will be the best big thing!

Can you believe that bullshit! Oh, and I also have ESPN +, but since I am no longer tied to a provider that offers ESPN? I can't watch anything live. I imagine if a bunch of homes lose Monday Night Football? The NFL might have something to say about it.

I am moving from this shit motel to a VRBO and trying to ask if they have the B10 network. You would think I was at the bottom of swimming pool speaking Chinese based on her responses.

Haha, probably not the top of mind when they list features of the VRBO!

I have had ESPN since I was a kid, not one single time have I ever had a provider not have ESPN as an option. I truly don't understand how DircTv can sit in meetings, come up with ways to get people to stop leaving them for streaming services, and their answer was "I know, let's piss off every sports fan we have!" I think they actually might have a false sense of what they can do, since the public perception of the Pac was that they fucked up the TV stuff. This is major college football and the NFL that you are fucking with here. I can't imagine this is going to go well for them.

Yeah, it’s starting to look like I’ll need to stream. I don’t want to lose RedZone, and I HATE not being able to flip quickly from game to game. I usually go from Hawk games to RedZone or the split screen when I had Sunday Ticket. Haven’t watched a commercial on Sunday in about 15 years!

They actually list Netflix which I would NEVER watch. They have ATT Verse and their are 4 packages to choose from and 3 have the B10 network. Guess which one they have??? Fuck! Oh well headed to a Sports Bar to watch it. I need to get out of the room for a few hours any way.
