Anyone who lives in the Midwest has seen the dollars that Comcast has sunk denouncing the Big 10 Network. My assumption was that the argument was over the tier that the Big 10 Network would show up on. As in, "Big 10 Network wants to be on the same tier as ESPN. Comcast is willing to put it on the same tier as Fox Soccer Channel and NFL Network."
Apparently, that isn't true, as our rich lady friend Jess who has NFL Network reports that she doesn't have the Big 10 Network, I guess due to the wrangling. (Interesting insight: Jess actually wants to watch the Gophers.)
So Jess hates Comcast, and I think with good reason. And the Big 10 Network, for good reason. Should the Big 10 Network be on Basic Cable? I think it should be on the same tier as ESPNU, which should be at least $20 more a month than the Fox Soccer Channel. I say that as a person who doesn't love European soccer 35 more times than he loves quickly devaluing NCAA conferences.
Fuck it. Jess' opinion is here: Read it!

It's my fucking alma mater. Of course I want to watch Golden Gopher Basketball.
I'm pretty sure you have the argument correct, though. It's not available at all because BTN says "absolutely not" to putting it with the sports tier. And Comcast says, "Fine then. You can't have it at all."
Also, in addition to NFL Network I get Fox Soccer Channel. *sticks tongue out*
You get FSC too?! Dude I saw an awesome scoreless tie the other day. There was this one amazing shot where the guy kicked it wicked hard about 20 feet over the goal. Damn. Not to mention all of the best players iron their jeans. Poor schmucks that don't get this as part of the sports tier.
Without access to Fox Soccer Channel, how are American consumers supposed to get their fill of flamboyant ethnics faking injuries on the pitch?
If Dish Network can give ESPN U, Fox Soccer, AND NFL Network for less than $60/mth why does comcast charge $80 and not provide them
AND FOR FUCK'S SAKE, it isn't Jess' opinion, it is Jess's opinion.
Say it out loud for fucking fuck's sake. Jesus fucking christ, has the whole fucking world gone fucking mad?
Just fucking say it out loud. "Jess's opinion."
Not "Jess' opinion."
Jesus fucking christ. Jesus fucking christ.
Jesus motherfucking christ. Fucking goddamn jesus's tits. Fuck.
Haven't we had this discussion before? I thought both "Jess'" and "Jess's" were acceptable.
Also, Trent Tucker is doing the Gopher game today on Big Ten Network. Yet one more reason these fuckers need to get their act together. It's been too long since I've gotten to listen to Trent Tucker announce some basketball.
No, we obviously haven't concluded this discussion properly, not as long as the English language gets clogged with baby puke every time some lazy illiterate retard can't remember the rules that were so patiently explained in sixth fucking grade ...
Jesus fucking christ Tom, I had respect for your intelligence once upon a time. What are you doing to our love?
Jess, just say these sentences out loud:
"This is the measure of Jess's intelligence."
"This is the measure of Jess' intelligence."
Come on people. Let's keep that bar off the ground.
"First learn the rules, then throw them out."

Jess, mentioning Trent Tucker during a grammar lesson is like tossing a grenade into a fireworks factory. Good Lord!
I thought you were a savvy VET-TER-AN.
Obviously, I'm not.
