Since someone marked the previous thread regarding the addition of the SEC Network to Verizon FIOS as "solved", the discussion seems to have dropped off. Some may be quite satisfied with the outcome (especially those in Texas and Florida) that left SEC fans nationwide with only channel 75 in SD. While I am grateful that we are at least getting channel 75, I believe it is important to consistently voice our desire to have an HD channel.
There have been some developments here in the Southern California (Pomona feed). We now get the alternate channel 332 SD, which we didn't have last week. That's a plus. Whether or not this is true elsewhere is unknown because no one is reporting progress in their areas.
I am not advocating rants and rage as a means to achieving the goal of SECN HD, rather, to keep the issue alive in a persuasive if not creative manner. Back in the day, folks used to chant "I want my MTV".
Well, I, for one "want my SECN HD".
Interestingly enough, I was watching something blurry on SECN SD earlier today that was a documentary of sorts that had all sorts of people from around the country talking about their experiences in the SEC. Whether they were students or atheletes or the children thereof, they went on and on about how great the memories and experiences were. There were some recognizable celebritiy types in the mix. It just reinforces the fact that WE ARE EVERYWHERE.
To paraphrase Field of Dreams (if you build it they will come}....if you put it on the air (preferably in HD) they will watch.
Keep it alive folks, keep it alive.
And dare I say,
War Eagle!
