There’s a small town close to me that changed its name from Clark to DISH as part of a marketing agreement. All 200 or so residents got free cable for ten years.

I would just explain to him reddit is like another "version " of CCS. You just have to type in a different "name" in the "website bar" in your internet explorer/Netscape. After that just click on the game you want to watch, then which stream you want.
My problem is that I also pay thru the nose for Hughes net work and only have 10 gigs a month,so that won't work.

They only want 16.8 billion dollar increase from Dish Network for re-transmission fees. In the mean time,Millions of people cannot watch sports or watch any programs currently on any fox network channels.

Switch you say!!!!, yeah, $580.00 early termination,plus additional $20.00 per month for all months during 2yr lock-in w/dish.
All on retirement incomes need to throw $1000.00 away.
But all of you rich don't give a flying fig mouthy types can now slam away.
w0w, what breaking news you posted. It's been about a month now

Corporate greed has never been higher. CBS had the same issue with DirecTV back in August I think. Ever since AT&T bought them out, there service has sucked too.

Do you think somebody would even notice if we broke into ommy’s assisted living facility and rolled him and his wheel chair over a cliff?

1. When you create a thread, stay at least mildly engaged
2. Do you live within 50 miles of Chicago? If so, a simple $20 HD antenna will get you the game over the air.

You would probably get a reward from the old folk's home. His male nurse would also personally call to thank you.

Bearman43, do you live near Chicago? You should be able to use an antenna and get the channel just fine. In fact if you live anywhere near me, I will help you set it up, free of charge.
