Yes, it does go up $20.00 next year. But that is still $25.00 less than what I use to pay for cable. And I get so many more sports channels that Time Warner made me pay extra for. Along with all the MSG channels. So I was able to watch the Sabres Tuesday nite. You people that have been brain washed by Time Warner really have no clue. If you like movies, etc, then yes. Stay with what you have. But if you love sports like I do Direct TV is the best way to go. The FACT is that for sports you really do get the most bang for your buck with Direct TV.

I dumped my cable after 20 years and went to Direct TV. It was the smartest move I made in years!!! No more BS when it comes to my sports. The ad they run IS TRUE. If you LOVE sports the only way to go is Direct TV. Plus you do save lots of $$$ on your bill. In Aug. I dumped my cable after 20 years and went to Direct TV.

Especially those that dumped Dish for TW just because of this very issue. It'll put a lot of pressure on Pegula and Black to dump MSG (which they've stood by so far) for a more responsive local partner (e.g. TWCS or, dare I say WBBZ, although Arno probably doesn't have the money for that yet). Quinn locked the Sabres into MSG through 2016, but if push came to shove, I'm sure that the deal could be reviewed, especially with a little arm-twisting (and Senator Schumer has shown in the past that he's willing to do that sort of thing).

This dispute is really out of the subscribers hands. The way the Sabres have been playing, I thought they may be in jeopardy of being cancelled anyway by MSG due to low ratings( or lack of interest round here) Have a great and prosperous New Year!
