And you have to have an HD TV and HD programming, correct?

I'm screwed there also just like probably the majority of MMA fans.

You have to have an HD TV and an HD Converter Box. It's really,really worth it

Help me foot the bill then, partner.

I have bills, man. If I could afford it, I'd do it.

Nobody said you had to, You asked if you needed an HD TV and i told you what you need.

So what?

HDNet is in 6 million in the U.S. People are saying, "Oh this is great for M-1 blah blah blah".

Look at BodogFIGHT. They got dropped by ION because no one has that fucking channel. If I had HDNet, I would be jumping off the fucking walls because I would be able to watch the IFL Grand Prix Finals and this NYE card, but I'm one of the majority of MMA fans that don't have the channel.

I think you will agree that this is better than no TV deal at all. Besides, this may be only the beginning. The fact that Cuban is working with many organizations is also a good sign of things to come. Who knows... perhaps if Fedor joined UFC, organizations would still choose not to cooperate? (at least it was he who was keen on joining organization that would work with other organizations, rather than maintain isolationist monopoly (UFC anyone?)).

No, I asked for verification that you needed an HD TV.

But I see where you would think that I was asking.
