We actually got 4.50 per subscriber in Travis county. For some reason the demand for Texas A&M football there was the highest in Texas.

P.S.: You left out the other aggie lie: that the College Station campus has an $11 billion endowment.
Finally, someone else. My arm has been growing tired of carrying the flag of aggie hate.

Since 1975, the Texas Aggies have a winning record against tu & baylol and are 22-0 against the frogs.
You must be into leather helmet football.
And ou is a second rate school that would sell their little sister into prostitution if they thought it would get them in the SEC.
They tried to go to the PAC 12 a couple of years ago and were turned down.

Rate card isn't necessarily the rate that actually gets charged, but the wording used here suggests that there are no partial states in the footprint. Otherwise, why even mention the number of states to begin with
Since ESPN has the ability to negotiate with each service provider, it's really pretty simple, the big guys like ATT/Verizon and Satelite are going to pay the rate per agreement.. that leaves the little guys, these are much easier for ESPN to strong arm since they will be in danger of losing customers to dish, they are pretty easy to cajole, once cable customers leave, they often never come back.
essentially the negotiation with ATT/TW/Comcast sets the rate, then everyone pays it.

lol! talk about cherry picking a stat...I notice you stopped one year before Texas had a 7 year win streak. Did you have to use a calculator to figure out what year to choose where you had a better record than Texas, or does Texags send out a mailer to let you know?
Congratulations on finding literally the only year in history that aggy has a better head to head record than Texas...like finding waldo and stuff
Edit: My bad...there's actually two years, I missed 1984.

As I said in my post I eliminated leather helmet football stats. For the first 90 years of it's history the Texas Aggies were a small all male military school.
What year did you attend tu?

lol...more aggy revisionist history. According to archived news reports, aggy was actually signing more scholarship players than any other team during the mid 60's when Stallings came in and cracked the whip and players left the team because they couldn't handle it. Stallings was coach for 7 years which ends up right at the time of the scholarship limitations.

Oh...and I didn't go to UT, I went to USC. My parents and my grandparents went to UT so I grew up listening to aggy jokes that write themselves.

Mailer? We had to quit the mailer crap after we hung Fran by that rope.
Now we get the talking points beamed directly into our brains.

Great find, which tells Texas fans what they already knew: aggies had just as many (and in cases, more) players on scholarship than other SWC teams, during the era of unlimited scholarships.
This bears repeating (from the link):
"When Stallings came to Aggieland (in 1965), he found a huge squad, built up through previous years when A&M was signing more schoolboys to football scholarships than was any other SWC school."
