That's fair enough, to a point. However note that a lot of us in the ACC footprint have had ESPN SEC, ESPN B10, etc. hidden in our bundled sports package for a LONG time now. I SELDOM watched it, but you can bet your bottom dollar that the cost is buried in my monthly bill. I didn't hear fans of other football conferences complaining while us in the ACC footprint have been subsidising their ESPN "X conference" coverage for a LONG time now. The way to make it fair would be for ESPN "X conference" to be completely a la carte for EVERYBODY. I would be fine with dropping ESPN SEC, ESPN B10, etc. and only having ESPN ACC. It should make my bill less. I don't know where you are located, but your bill could potentially go up because us in the ACC footprint wouldn't be subsidizing everybody else anymore. If they keep all ESPN "X conference" coverage for everybody, and add ESPN ACC to it, your bill could/would go up that way too. If it is completely a la carte, ESPN ACC could potentially be cheaper that the rest because of having the most teams and most states in the Cox footprint. Works for me. P.S.- I REALLY don't want ESPN SEC because I'm really tired of hearing Paul Finebaum make excuses for Clemson destroying Alabama 44-16!
My market doesn't label ESPN as ESPN-SEC. But, there's such a pro-SEC bias that they might as well call it that. On ESPN, it's an SEC world. The rest of us are just living in it.

By ESPN SEC I mean SEC Network. Here in VA we have 2 channels dedicated to it. I call the original ESPN "ESecPN." For the time being Clemson is living rent free in the SEC and their fans heads! :-)
