Time for MSG and Time Warner to pay!!!! My new campaign!

by The Buffalo Kid on Jan 31, 2012 1:49 AM EST

For those of us caught in between the Time Warner MSG war and unable to watch the Sabres or other teams MSG covers.

I am mad as H-E-Double hockey sticks and not gonna take it anymore!

I really don't care who's in the right, but it is time to make them both pay.

My campaign is simple, If you own stock in either of their companies......SELL IT!!!!

It's not just enough to switch to DirectTV or Fios.

Many of the 2.3 million caught in this battle have neither option which makes MSG suck.

MSG also pulled this with Dish Network.

Time Warner is too cheap to come to terms with NFL Network, so I feel pretty confident MSG is gone for good too on Time Warner.

The way to make them pay is make February 14th National FU MSG and Time Warner day if they can't resolve this by then.

The way this works is simple, if enough of us who own MSG or Time Warner stock who are sick of this crap sell their stock on February 14th, it will drive down the stock price due to the volume.

This will in turn trigger computer selling of both stocks by Hedge funds, Pension managers and Investment banks, further driving down the price. People will begin shorting both stocks once this occurs, driving the price even further down, forcing both MSG AND Time Warner to have to use assets to cover any loans from drop in stock backed price.

The reason I have chosen February 14th, is we can show them the same kind of love they have shown us.

If we can get enough affected people on board we can make them pay for the missed games.

Even if you are not affected by the MSG TWC standoff, you might want to climb onboard if you own Time Warner or MSG stock or risk facing a huge loss in value of your stocks in these two rotten greedy companies February 14th.

Tell everyone if you've had enough, post to facebook, twitter about this, make a website, make this go viral if you are sick of it, send it to everyone in your email list, or make a comment link to this post in any story you can comment on that is related to this standoff or any teams affected by it.

Thank you for your time to read this and participation in this event should you choose to.

Pegula Empire

I’m pretty sure that Pegula has in mind a Empire-esque Sabres channel. Obviously it can’t take effect this year. I’m not sure when the contract with MSG runs out, but I imagine this is the last contract with MSG.
It would be nice to be able to get Amerks and Bandits games on TV.
In the meantime, I’ve got a great reason to be at my local watering hole for Sabres games.

If i'm not mistaken.

The contract with MSG runs through 2016, so it isn’t happening anytime soon.

Hopefully Pegula, Black and every person within the Sabres organization will participate in National FU MSG and Time Warner day on February 14th. If everyone hits it at the opening bell…..they will pay! Pegula alone could have a huge block of stocks in these two companies alone with his net worth.

I’m no economist, but it seems like your plan relies on some heavy assumptions. Good luck, though, I hope it works.

Main reason I had it was for Sabres HD games, theyre gone, so am I

Every little bit helps!

Unfortunately, I live in the City and there is no Fios TV, and I sold my house for a nice profit and am renting until June, and the deal on my new house isn’t set to close until May 15th when the current tenants lease runs out. I am not gonna pay for satellite installation from DirecTV, only to have to pay for it again in May…..so I am stuck for the moment.

There is no point in placing it on those sites when MSG is the problem. MSG is New York City’s network and it is there where they place their marketing focus. The Sabres are routinely given short shrift by the network because they take away fans from their core groups.

The other day the Islanders were forced to CSPAN2 because of the NYR/Devils game.

The Devils feed was on MSG and the Rangers feed was on MSG+. And the Islanders feed wasn’t just hard to find, it was also internet-pirate bad.

You’re hardly leveraging a position of strength right there.

Good job BKid

pathetic display of management, planning & customer service by the highly paid execs at Time Warner.

Way to be aware of current tight economic times & the entertaiment relief found in sports for many. Also enjoy airing dirty laundry (incompetant negotiating skills), ahh the pointing fingers. (the TW bashing commercials are actually pretty good) Soo happy I drop, ahh, nearly 3k/yr in the TW bucket; not much longer…
