Are going to face a reckoning. This isn't a negotiating ploy, it's the reality, that people don't want to pay for shitty sports they don't want to watch, just for the privilege of having access to regular cable. We have hit the breaking point in the past few months.

These RSNs have over promised, and the sustainability of bilking customers who never turn their channel on, has finally come to a head.

I cheer this with every fiber of my being.

And as a Chicago resident with Comcast, I continue to hope they tell Marquee to go F themselves, because I won't watch that channel, ever, because I'm not a Cubs fan. The fact that people expect me to pay for it just because I live in Chicago, to make it cheaper for other people, is some major major bullshit. You want to watch Marquee. Fine by me. Pay for it yourself, don't expect me to subsidize it for you just because we live in the same town.
