I Officially Hate "The Dish" Now!

So here we are watching the James Blake/Andre Agassi quarterfinal match on USA. When they say that due to contractual obligations we will have to switch from USA to CBS to watch the end of the match, if we're on the east coast. So we don't change it and the next thing we know they are switching the programming. Its a weird DirecTV thing that except for the local channels everything is kind of on east coast. So I tried to change to CBSE but we don't get that channel and we ended up missing the end of the match...

Well Agassi ended up winning the fourth set, and then they tie the fifth set and go into a tie-breaker. I at least found a radio feed to listen to, so that I could hear what was going on. But it ended up being probably one of the best matches I have ever heard of.....

The only problem is that Comcast is just such a Monopoly Bitch of a company. God this pissed me off. I cant believe that there was no live TV feed online. They better replay this, I want to see it again. I think I might write an angry letter to DirecTV!
