Dish isn't for everyone. Turns out that also includes people who expect a reasonable rate of (or any) return on their investments.

Bold move Cotton. Let's see how it works out when Echostar goes trolling for funding in the future.

By notes do you mean debt? The debt that would be due in Nov? Do you there is a possibility they do not agree and DISH would have to do a BK?

Means if debt holders don't agree to reduction in the amount due, the deal falls through and Dish is on its own to pay its notes in November...
