Got a relative in the Great Northwest who subscribes to Dish. Here's how they promote Fox Sports Northwest. (Note: There are no Sonics games on FSNW and "Junior" hasn't played in Seattle for quite sometime). This is an actual cut/paste from E* web site.

Included in your Americia's Top 150 or America's Top 100:
FOX Sports Northwest pours on the coverage starting with the return of the Seattle Sonics of the NBA and the "Junior" led Seattle Mariners from MLB. Plus a wide variety of college athletics from the PAC-10, Big Sky and Big West conferences. Throw in some special interest shows like outdoor programming and horse racing and you have a RSN so large, Big Foot would be jealous. Don't rain on your customer's parade. Get them tuned into FOXNW today for the best sports coverage the Northwest has to offer.

I suggest we start a "Count the Mistakes" thread for the Dish web site. Picking on any one error is like finding a misspelling in an April 1st "How Many Things Are Wrong With This Picture".

It's as though they either don't have a full-time webmaster, or whoever they have doesn't have the resources to check the content.

Actually, Fox carries a fair amount of Sonics as the season moves along, but no, Junior is not around anymore.

Here's a perfect example today. According to SkyReport, Dish has reached agreement with TNT, and has agreed with NESN to continue carrying them while working on a new contract. This is great news, and ought to be on the front page of the Dish site, but of course it isn't anywhere to be found.

I thought I'd check to see whether Dish has issued a press release on the new contract. I went to About Us / Press Room and clicked the News link. The link hit a 404 Not Found. Sigh!

According to the schedule on the NBA web site, the only place to find Sonics games this year is on KONG.
