ASN...

[shyminer81]

Sucks! Last year I was able to watch many many games on ASN! This year, so far, No showing in the Portland area and no streaming online! I wish we had a deal with ESPN! At least we would get the stream on espn3, which is a decent quality...

Ok.

So.

My rant is over.

Go Miners!

It's funny that some of NMSU games are ESPN3, but UTEP games aren't.

Thats because the sunbelt has a contract with espn cusa has a contract with fox and cbs.

I know that, I meant it's funny that Conference USA couldn't get an ESPN contract.

Trying too hard chi, trying way too hard.

Just stating the facts.

Just more proof how brilliant Stull's decision was to decline the MW and stay in CUSA.

Yeah, VERY funny - Hahahaha- seriously, man, those are the types of things that make you laugh???

We arent on ESPN because Fox overpaid for cusa rights. Thats whats taking so long for the new tv deal to be announced. CUSA will be lucky to get half what the last tv deal was worth. I would rather we not be on ESPN because we would have tuesday and wednesday games. ESPN3 is not worth midweek games.

Just stating the facts.

Big 12 and PAC 12 also have Fox contracts, that is a fact. Good conferences with top 25 teams sign tv deals outside of ESPN too, that is a fact. Stating that its funny UTEP isnt on ESPN is an opinion. An opinion with very little weight, fact, or substance behind it.

ESPN3 doesn't have midweek games- those games are on ESPN and ESPN2.

The fact is Conference USA doesn't have an ESPN contract. What don't you get?

Why it's funny??

You can watch any espn games live on espn 3. If cusa had an espn contract we would play midweek games which would suck.

My point was there are games only on ESPN3 and games on ESPN and ESPN2 (those are obviously showed on ESPN3 as well).

I would rather play midweek on ESPN or ESPN2 than play on ASN.

CUSA got more money, more games on tv, and didn't have to play midweek games with its joint deals with Fox and CBS. It was a better deal for the conference. NMSU and the Sun Belt would trade their tv deals for ours in a second.

You have proof? I would imagine ESPN pays more than Fox and CBS does.

Dog shit smells more horrible on a hot summer day as compared to a fall drizzle, too. Just stating a fact! Really Chi?!

FOX offered more games on TV than ESPN did. FOX always goes into NFL headquarters during contract negotiations and adds more zero's on the check as compared to ESPN, CBS and NBC Sports.

I was stating a fact the the Sun Belt has an ESPN contract and Conference USA doesn't.
