I'm dealing with this too. Luckily, I'm attending the game, but I've missed other good games because DirecTV chose to make the channel go dark during college and NFL seasons in order to put the maximum pressure on Tegna. I think it will only result in more people changing their provider.

FYI, DTV didn't take it off air, the station owners Tegna did that. The issue is Tegna wants an increase across all subscribers. DTV had to raise everyone's bill $5 last negotiation with another station owner.

Switching isn't going to save you because they will just do the same when that contract is up. Basically these stations are dead because ad money has run out and they are trying to hold on by forcing DTV to pay them.

DTV offered them the option to have customers who wanted the challenge pay whatever Tegna wanted, a la carte. The stations know that people won't pay anything when they can get all the shows and most sports for cheaper with the national station as opposed to just the individual channel.

DTV is also trying to be able to negotiate with ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC directly. These stations are fighting that also. Streaming has the ability to do that for some stations, cable can't.

Lol what's the temp?

It's upper 50s but that high humidity with wind can make NE FL feel cold
