Just found out AT&T will announce the buyout of Directv for a cool 49 billion on Monday morning. If true clears the way for the SEC Network.

Timmy B should stick to what he knows.
It's going to take at least a year to close the deal. The DoJ is going to be all over this. There are significant competition issues here. Especially since some people are saying AT&T will shut down UVerse TV and push TV to satelite, which frees up room on the in-ground pipe for UVerse Internet.
There is no reason to believe that SECN has a deal with UVerse will cause DTV to sign on this year. If anything, I can see it delaying a SECN deal, as neither DTV nor SECN may want to ink a deal with so much uncertainty going on around it.

I've had no issues with AT&T or DTV, but I'm OT loaded!

I have to decide by next week if I'm going Dish or DTV. I have UVerse right now, and love it...but we're moving. I wonder if DTV will switch from their horrible graphics, menus, and interface to look like UVerse, and how many months at a minimum it would take to make the awitch.

So as a Tiger fan, would it benefit me more to have Cox and catch a lot of games on CST or get DTV and have SECn?
