Shocking Development re: CSN Houston...

I've given it much thought.

 

I know that as well as I knew you'd hate that particular statement in court made your boy look bad.

 

Come on.

Seriously, put me on ignore already...I'll do the same. This is tired.

how do you put someone on ignore? I don't recall having ever done it before.

 

You could ask all the attorney's in court... "Don't you all have homes?"

BTW... repped you and Daniel for funny lines.

 

I need the rep...I've got none

 

Did Barron's battery die, or did he fall asleep?

 

Wish there were more people covering the hearing

I remember people saying that from the beginning here.

 

<-----------

I really don't know how they bungled this as severely as they did. They had other industry people telling them not to do this.

 

Yep...the whole thing is a disaster.

 

It was awkward as hell to think that U-verse and DirectTv would want a Comcast station on their Network. I know it's worked elsewhere but it's advertsing your competitor night in and night out in front of your customers.

 

But its established practice elsewhere... in large enough markets (Chicago, Philly).

Makes the whole thing much sillier, IMO... but on par with Houston local politics.

 

yeah, comcast driving their name down other carrier's throat is a problem i had also. i didn't get into the network being formed, it doesn't surprise that some people thought about that.

when i can rep, i'll come back through here

 

DirecTv has about 7 or 8 comcast sports networks on their line up already...

 

This has got to be the worst deal in history between a sports team and network right now (maybe not the worst but has to be close). I don't know all of the details but reading what is being said is just a complete mess!!

That's why I stated..... "I know it's worked elsewhere"

 

Then why is it awkward as hell to think DirecTv would WANT a Comcast channel on their network when they already have them?
