The truth finally emerges. No more mythical filters, just no CST.
So, why can't CST modify there coverage if they want it so bad?
Rick that's not the question that needs to be asked. Why did we give away our 3rd Tier TV rights to the Sun Belt thus eliminating any possibility of securing the CST deal. That was a Farmer blunder.
"On with the show this is it"!
Good cst doesnt reach all of the fl pandhandle anyway. It is a lie you have to be in certain place or have a package to get it and i dont know why you would want lafayette area to sit at home when they should be at the game. Any package they ever agree to should not have lafayette coverage.
OK, so no new news there. Only way we get a deal is if CST agrees to concessions.Quote:

No, the fault here clearly lies with Farmer for giving up third tier rights to the Sun Belt. Had he not done that, the CST deal would have been done long ago.Quote:
