Wow, just checked and they are showing darts instead. What is the reason for that? It would make sense if this was a beIn sport thing and I just didn't get the channel, but how are they just not going to show it?
they reached an agreement with uverse, and now expect them to pay more for programming they bought after the deal with uverse.

they broadcast on uverse so they obviously have an agreement.

I thought you meant they reached another agreement.

The fight over rising sports fees is nothing new in the industry. But it is unusual, albeit not unique, for a programmer to ask a TV provider for additional fees after the original carriage agreement was signed. Fox Sports 1 obtained the rights to these events after it signed its deal with AT&T and therefore says the telco should now pay more to air them.

as a uverse subscriber, I hope they hold out.

I think he meant they reached an agreement previously, and now Fox is screwing things up.

I don't think anyone other than DTV carries FS2 in HD

i always beg people to hold out, but fans want to watch their teams.
Fox sports midwest has forced 2 year deals on the providers, and rapes them on every deal, because they know Cardinal fans will fricking revolt and leave for another provider if they do not get a deal done.
Had Cardinal fans stuck together with providers, they could shove it up fsmw arse. Instead, higher prices and in 2 years another show down.
Dish tried to get the others(cable and direct) to team up against ESPN. ESPN forces their shite channels on them, and they would like to get rid of some of them, they bring zero viewers and are worthless. But the other providers do not want to lose customers and are afraid to hold out, so ESPN rapes us all, in every new deal.
One day, people will realize that the provider is who they shoudl stand with, and stop forcing their hands and stand up to the TV networks.
1 reason we will never get a la cart in USA, because no one would want the 100's of shite channels we are forced to have with our packages.
NBC has close to 30+ channels themselves. Ala cart makes 90% of those gone.

Uverse does. Those dart boards look crisp on my TV.

Looks like Fox is still fricking over Uverse users. The Germany game is not showing up on my guide. I guess I'll be watching in Spanish.

And I've been pissed that Comcast doesn't even carry FS2. God I can't wait till Google Fiber comes to Nashville.

I'm talking about the USMNT vs Germany on Wednesday. I don't think Fox would get its point across by not showing a women's World Cup game.

Ah. I watched the U20s live on Uverse the other day.

I'd be SHOCKED if the ratings for a US friendly are near the USWNT.
Hell, I'd be shocked if the USMNT ratings on Wednesday are half of the Australia game.
