Fw: [Husker] Dish Network vs. Directv

[Monty Perry]

I have Dish, and I live in Nebraska, so I can't comment on getting games 
that aren't available elsewhere. I do love my Dish, though. I can tell my 
DVR to record a pay per view game of the Huskers a couple days in advance, 
and I know when I get home it will be there. (sometimes a few seconds of the 
front is cut off, and sometimes they don't have their "poop in a group" at 
the beginning of the game, (lacking commentary, etc) but I blame the sports 
network not Dish. I can also program my DVR from any web browser as long as 
I can find an internet connection. That is cool. Tech support it pretty 
good, although I do reach an occasional hard to understand tech support, but 
they have been helpful.

Once I purchased a single day Game pass, when the Huskers were listed, but I 
never got them. I guess they were blacked out or something. Had to watch it 
on the horrible cable or over air signal!  I did get to watch some ACC games 
that didn't interest me a lot, but football is football. I Like It!

So to summarize.....Nah, too late. I like my Dish. If I HAD to have the pro 
package, I guess I'd bite the bullett and go Direct. But I can get as many 
as 6 different pro games some weekends between FOX east & west, CBS east & 
West, local FOX & CBS and throw in NBC's night game and ESPN MNF I am 
saturated.


Go Big Red!!

Anyone here have any experience, pro or con, with either service as it 
applies to getting Husker games that arent available elsewhere? Any other 
tips would be appreciated as well.
