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.

This may be a positive step toward DirecTV getting the SEC Network sooner but, I'd be reluctant to trust AT&T - they wrote the book on "bill creep".
