I too just noticed that VS is back. Tred was just about the only show I watched there. Glad to have some new TB shows to watch on my DVR.

Yeah, they put it back on because of the first U.F.C. on Versus Sunday.  They knew everybody was gonna drop them.  Kinda pisses me off that Direct TV didn't care enough about fans of hunting, hockey and cagefighting (W.E.C.), till the big cagefighting show (U.F.C.) was scheduled.  Seriously, Direct TV was gonna lose A LOT of customers if they did'nt have Versus back on before last Sunday.  Just goes to show, these big companies don't care about what anyone wants until they know it will hurt their overstuffed pockets.  Personally, I will NEVER get Direct TV because of this.

Corporations exist to make money for stockholders not to care about what the little guys like us want.  That era went away with small companies and service being provided by single ownerships.  Customer service is now a computerized voice that might as well be telling you to wait an hour and then go scr## yourself.

I stick with small business that give great customer service in my life.  I like that the shop owner knows my name and will go out of their way to help out repeat customers.  Try to get that at a big box store.  We only have ourselves to blame for buying big box.

Congrats on getting VS back.  It is amazing that Tred is back at it despite his set backs.

I switched from Direct TV last fall and won't be going back.. They will drop VS again, I'd bet. They have already dropped them twice that I'm aware of.. P!$$ on 'em...

This has gotten off topic guys...discussing cable providers is not connected to trad bowhunting.
