Message: [QUOTE="reedny, post: 2350983, member: 1423"] That's another whole (sad) story. Spectrum pretty much hoodwinked everyone when they took over ... claiming it was going to support local "college" sports. Then it abruptly cancelled all the SU shows. In Rochester, they're playing HS games for the time being ... 15 year olds running around .. but I think the sports channel's going to be shut down. Unless your kid's playing, the HS stuff is unwatchable. I think they screwed SU (and everyone else) because they just didn't feel like spending the money to produce sports shows. It's not right, it's not supporting the local "community" and we're stuck with them (monopoly). It's amazing all the people who grew up in upstate NY following SU and the Big East on cable. Now ... poof. It's gone. We might still get most of the games, but there won't be any third tier programming until the ACC channel starts (in 2 years). And even then, SU's going to have to do all the production. [/QUOTE]
