I think they go through this every year

Was it just last year or the year before that Dish Network went through the same thing? DirectTV will probably get it resolved, but you might miss a few games. I had Dish when they went through this and missed a few of the Sons of Anarchy episodes also.

We moved to Oklahoma this year and I ended up choosing Cox cable here. I'm finding out none of the providers are perfect.

I noticed these contract disputes never happen during college baseball season, It's scummy to use the customers as leverage. Dish/Fox did this to us last year, I'm glad I didn't switch , but Dish is in a pissing match with ESPN right now which could end badly for the consumers, we still don't have ESPN-U in HD

Doubt it will actually happen. Hell, ESPN was threatening the same thing with Time Warner a few years ago IIRC.
