    Here you go: I read through it, noticed the "BE" and still wondered where we were at first.

    This is going to take a little getting used to; and I'm going to love every second of getting used to it.

    So this is a brand new channel then?And do you guys think it will be part of a cable/satellite sports package or more of a standard package?

    It's a rebrand of the Speed channel. 80 million people already have it.

    Ok, I had no idea. Didnt even know that channel existed. Really hadnt been keeping up with the news on what the channel actually was.

    It's currently in the 600s somewhere on DirecTV, so even if 80 million have it, basically knows where to find it. To be taken seriously, it needs to be in the 210-220 range on DirecTV and in a similarly relevant spot on other providers' lineups.

    I've read that eventually Fox Soccer Channel will be rebranded Fox Sports 2 and will carry some of these offerings. Fox loses the English Premier League soon and after that there's not really much point to FSC.

    Does Fox plan to have Big East games on the mothership (Fox network) occasionally?
