if Everyone jumps to direct they will do the same thing. I hope dish and direct join together and stand up for us. To hell with ESPN. I hope they sink.

Hate Disney/Espn..

Too bad the hurricane didn't destroy Disney and left everyone else alone.

I only watch college football on ESPN. The rest of the year I could care less.

I suppose paying for only 4 months of Youtube TV would work.

after enough couch potatoes call to bitch at dish today and Dish pays $1B to Disney. frickin groomers will get it too! I’d rather stream the games and have the cable providers stick up for their customers and force Disney to drop their price.

Everyone is going to bitch at DISH and cancel once they have to inevitably raise their price anyway due to this deal

Couldn't Biden just pay up as part of his mental health plan? I'm having a mental health crisis now and I know I'm not alone. Just print more money.

Dude…if all the providers just bend over for Disney they’ll just keep extracting more and more money. How does a $500 live TV bill sound to you? Cause that’s where this is headed.

This is the best option. It's what we do. No lock-in, no BS, no paying for 1000 channels of trash.

The sad reality is that both of these companies are such behemoths, and even so their product is awful. Particularly ESPN. Hard for me to advocate giving money to the network with the 3rd rate announcers, 480p broadcast, middle finger to the fans constantly, and general ineptitude.

ESPN is one of the worst broadcasts pound for pound on television right now. I'd rather watch an FS1 game. Amazon's TNF broadcast might be the best football product point blank I've ever seen, and I'd be embarrassed if I was an ESPN exec.

Well, we could all stop watching so much television. People who are shitting their britches about this need to reexamine their lives. It's a gorgeous day in southeast LA. Get outside and do something else.

You realize the Walt Disney company would still exist even if Orlando takes storm damage right? It’s not like they keep all their money in a vault under Epcot for Scrooge McDuck to swim around in
