The New York Yankees baseball season began this week. The customers of Comcast Cable apparently are not going to get Yankees games because of a dispute between Comcast and Fox&#8217;s YES Network.The only hope we Comcast customers have is the power of our advertising dollars. At some point, Fox/YES must realize that the 900,000 Comcast customers will not be seeing ads on their station, because the games are not being shown. That is why YES is pushing Comcast subscribers to change providers. Some can&#8217;t, some won&#8217;t. It is in their interest for us to view what their sponsors are selling. No games, no advertising dollars.Also, how do we know that if we switch, Fox/YES won&#8217;t do to Direct TV, Verizon, etc., what it has done to Comcast? Can you trust Fox/YES to keep their word?Believe me, this is hard for me because I love my Yankees games. I hope cooler heads will prevail and a settlement will be reached. If not, the major fault is with Fox/YES.Joan SupponWyoming
