[QUOTE="Dan, post: 1403023, member: 1"] Comcast dropped BTN in non-B1G markets a few months ago. With a 10-yr agreement about to end in August and a lack of any sort of negotiation thus far, the B1G is concerned that Comcast could indeed drop BTN (and B1G games on FS1) nationwide on September 1st. Comcast is the major cable provider in 10 of 14 B1G markets. For some fun reading on the topic here's BTN President Mark Silverman today at B1G Media Days: [URL]http://asaptext.com/asap_media/media/44/477/transcripts/30342.pdf[/URL] [/QUOTE]
