It looks like, in the end, the mtn/comcast caved.
From talking to my buddy at DTV, Comcast wants the Big 10. There is huge pressure on them to get it. They also didn't get a lift from holding out on the mtn that they were hoping. So now Comcast is losing money on the channel, wants something from DTV. They came to an agreement because the Comcast bottleline demanded it. Dish has nothing to offer right now, so their is no need to extend an olive branch to them.

Expect Comcast to get the Big 10 sometime before the football season. At least that was his comment.
