I have never watched the SEC network even when they aired a SEC vs ACC game

That goes back to when ESPN started dragging their feet to start the ACCN. it was part of my cable package that I was forced to pay for, unlike the B10N which I had to pay extra to receive. Thankfully I don't have to buy that package for the ACCN.

Has anyone noticed ESPN pushed hard to get all cable networks on board before the SECN aired its first show, but the ACCN has been online a couple years but COMCAST still doesn't carry it? They (ESPN) twisted arms to get the SEC network everywhere, but they are OK with the slow roll the ACCN.
