More than half of that is from time Warner picking it up, so quit acting like 20 million people actively subscribed to the bullshite longhorn network.

I remember when the series was announced and Texas put something in the contract that said they would get the rights to put on any network they choose to put it on.It was like a year before The Longhorn Network was announced.

I've heard from a bunch of Texas fans that the Longhorn Network is a complete ripoff and not worth the purchase.

YouTube some clips of it. It is a 24-hour circlejerk over one fricking team. I couldn't stand to watch something like that about A&M.

Texas has a bigger fanbase than A&M. You know that. You left them and joined another conference. I'm not sure what your problem is now. You just seem whiny.
Let it go.
Let it go.

Actually the fact that 20 million people subscribe to a channel devoted to one single team is pretty impressive.
Most are just like me, it's already part of their subscription package. And, I suspect that most of the 20 million who have it are also just like me in the fact that they couldn't care less that they have it.

Quit white-knighting for the fricking tsips.

Can't wait for this. I'll be outside the stadium tigerbaiting every Ole Miss fan I see.

Im not white-knighting for shitty arse Texas. Im just letting you know you sound ridiculous when you act like they dont have a huge fanbase

Tejas was wise to put this game on LHN. That way the entire nation will not see Ole Miss embarrass them.

Why? They're our rival. You guys obsess over Auburn and take any chance you get to put them down. It's what rivals do.
They do the same about us.
You're not sure what our problem is now? Are you intentionally being ignorant of the bad blood that exists? Both schools have a very big problem with each other.

They have a huge regional fanbase sure. But they think they're Notre Dame and that's where you get things like the failed longhorn network.

They certainly have a large, mostly ambivalent fanbase. The LHN has not exactly been a bastion of success. Their own fans dislike it for the most part. What he is saying is not untrue.

Show me what he said that was untruthful.
The network has struggled to get subscribers in its own home state. Fact.

I have ATT U-Verse and they carry the Longhorn Network.
It is the worst channel ever. Nothing but a huge suck-off of Texas. Even the old games they show are just Texas wins. Only games they won.
It's lame.

Wait until the backlash of folks once the SEC starts airing their games on the SEC Network (like A&M/USCe). It's very possible that the SECN won't be available by every service provider in all of the tv markets.

....and you have to go back a half decade to find very many of those.
