Change my poll result to switching I called Dish Network on 8/28 and the guy I talked with assured me that I could get the B10 games, but that Dish wouldn't carry the BTN?!? After beating my head against a wall trying to explain to this guy that BTN does not equal ESPN/ESPN2/ABC/ESPNU, I...

What I wanted from Dish was something to the effect of "sir, we value your cash and would be disappointed if you sent your monthly payments to Rupert Murdoch and Fox Corp. instead of us." Also something like "we will not have BTN for the opening weeks of the season, but we are diligently...
