beIN SPORT USA speculation thread

It will be nice if everybody will focus on getting information about which providers will carry these channels. We´re getting closed to 1000 posts on 3 different treads and the only things I´m seeing are insults, possible girls hosts, Boise State Football, Georgetown basketball and the Big East etc.....with so many experts on this forum, can somebody give us a decent idea (maybe a 75% idea) where these channels will end up?
We´re getting closed to August 1st, and I assume that "maybe" some of us will have to change providers in order to get these channels, but after 4 or 5 months we´re still waiting.......in my opinion this is ridiculous......

 

see, there's your problem right there.

you're lost, and you've misidentified who else may be populating this forum.

 

This wouldn't be a problem except that ESPN Deportes likes to carry European football on its HD channel in a letterboxed format instead of true, anamorphic 16:9.

Here's hoping they abandon this practice.

 

Miller is stupid if he thought he would get ESPN numbers on NBCSN.

 

Has there been any indication or proof that Miller actually thought (or said) that?

 

None. I was just making the point that 300k would have been a completely unrealistic expectation by NBC. Assuming that NBC isn't run by idiots, this casts serious doubt upon Oliver's statement that they were hoping for 300k per match.

 

gotcha.

And I was just making the point that it is probably better and more helpful to generally post in a fashion that presumes the "idiocy/stupidity/uninformed--ness" of BS posters, rather than in a fashion that supposes the "idiocy/stupidity" of people that actually run these networks and media operations and are involved with the actual decision-making and goal-setting.

 

agree 100% all this NBC big east stuff on hear has to be one of the
Biggest peace of BS I have ever read on big soccer

 

Oliver I have to ask this do you have anything better to do in your life than to go on big soccer and post photos of women and type the same stuff over and over again. I bet you if I was to ask anyone on hear do they give a crap about the photos I will say 98% would say no. so please stop posting these photos and until you got a link to all this NBC stuff please stop posting.

 

What's the point of giving out information when the obnoxious obsessed freaks think you are someone on another forum. Please, unless you are on topic stop saying I am someone i am not.

Now on topic. I believe, not 100% or confirmed. just my opinion that DirecTV will reach a deal with beIN before aug 1.

 

hahha now this is a new level for attention seeking. oliver you are so pathetic that you have two accounts and you are defending your self

Do you think the Turkish League matches involving Galatasaray, Fenerbahce, and Besiktas would work on beIN? How about Al-Ahly on with the Egyptian league?

 

NP huhe.

BS moderators can verify i've been using the same static ip since I registered, they can also check it is NOT proxy but from TWC.

Btw - PSG are on the verge of acquiring Ibrahimovic and Silva from AC Milan - things are def getting interesting with Youssef and his entourage.

 

Jason at the moment it is too early for that, Turkish League is involved in a too many match-fixing scandals, as for Al-Ahly I don't think it would get the ratings it needs to survive.

 

but oliver always say here that bein need epl to get to directv because if there is no epl there is no bein anywhere. this guy is full of bs that is not funny now but annoying and frustrating reading all these lies

 

That is an ironic statement considering BeIn already signed historically one of the most corrupt leagues in all of sports in Serie A.

 

you are full of bs what is epl now 10-15 mill on fox soccer and 1 game a week at espn that has 100+ milliopn of subscribers and still only 200k( i am being nice) watch epl.bein will be on sport package same place where fox soccer is. i want to ask anybody who knows media is epl any kind of a player in anything in usa i mean fox soccer has to pay companies to show their commercials on fox soccer no major company wants to show their products on fox soccer if epl is a such a player in usa you would think companies would lining up to sow their product where eyes are

 

Yes Serie A has its share of corrupt problems but IT does not go unnnoticed. they actually investigate and charge teams/persons involved, something other leagues do not do because they know their reputation would take a big hit.

 

so i guess bein will be in 35 mill people directv ,twc , dish probably because they have aljazeera and comcast only place where bein will not be is bright house network
