First of all, I realize that only about 2 percent of you care about this, if that many. But I'm wondering if anyone knows why tomorrow's FA Cup match (English soccer, in case you don't know) between Arsenal and Chelsea is being carried on DirecTV but not Dish?
A little background: both companies are offering a 5-game FA Cup package, but this game (and another that took place last month between Arsenal and Man United) is not part of the original package.
Both Dish and DirecTV carried last month's game, but it looks like only DirecTV is carrying tomorrow's game. Just wondering if the buy rate for last month's match was bad, if they don't have the space, or what.
