I think it's actually a fee disagreement kinda like Cox had with KAKE....but in this case no one knows or cares. It's been going on for a few days and this is the first Ive heard of it because I never watch the channel.

But the difference is the channel is still on with "alternate programming", in this case darts (lol), but they dropped the games and are threatening to not show the BIG EAST Tournament. Ohhhhhhh the humanity. LOL

Uverse is making the right move here. Why pay for something that brings zero viewers and thus zero $$$ to the company? I think FS1 experiment is starting to take shape. Get ready for the Black List.

Why do we waste so much valuable hard drive space on those clowns? They should dead to us, and we should be glad they are gone and not dragging down the Valley's RPI..

Their ratings are higher on Shockernet.. how pathetic..

There is high entertainment value in watching those clowns suffer and deteriorate down into the shadows. Unfortunately some of us can't watch because FS1 is fading faster than a Dougie-less Creighton.

Totally agree on the entertainment value.....

[SHOCKvalue]

So instead of just pulling the plug completely on FS1/2, Fox believes that pulling the plug on just NBE games will impart the desired impact? Fox doesn't really get that the NBE fan bases are tiny in a national context since the conference is now populated only with a bunch of small privates, do they. Tough reality after doing a lackadaisical due diligence on market metrics.

I hear you. That's why I think its so pathetic. We seem to be the only people on the planet who do care.

I watched the Speed channel far, far more than I ever have FS1 (you might recal the former turned into the latter), and suffice to say I wasn't watching NASCAR programming which was about 75% Speed's content. I don't think I've watched more than an hour in total of FS1/2 since they came into being, and that's no exaggeration.

I would not be surprised if going forward if FS1 deemphasizes the Big East games on their network. The WSU v Evansville game on ESPNU had more viewers than the highest rated BE game that week. FS1's demographics seem to favor UFC and similar events which are by far the highest rated programs on their network. When it comes to college basketball PAC 12 games typically get better ratings on FS1 than BE games.
