The Cubs are getting their own channel next year, with Sinclair as their television partner. Why is Ripley confident he can get the Cubs into all the homes in Chicago?
Letters to the L.A. Times sports department
“It doesn’t look good that the regional sports will ever be on Dish again,” Dish chairman Charlie Ergen told investors. The Dodgers also learned that persuading fans to change their cable or satellite provider is a challenge. Some fans opted not to deal with the hassle of changing email accounts, or returning equipment to one company and installing equipment for another. For fans that seriously threatened to cancel, DirecTV often pacified them with free NFL Sunday Ticket.
“The question you’ve got to ask is: If a Cubs fan doesn’t have the Cubs on Comcast video, are they going to turn off their Comcast broadband business? My guess would be very few do.” A Comcast spokesman declined to comment, other than to say negotiations with Sinclair have not started. Michael McCarthy, the general manager of the Cubs’ channel, did not return a message left with a team spokesman.
