I think that SNYY needs more shares of stock and this is one way they can raise their o/s. The more shares o/s should be better for the company. If this deal raises their o/s shares to say 500 million it will dilute their stock but still be a pretty good deal by penny standards maybe in the .05 range.

Here's hoping we'll have a good week for FCDH. What do we need? Facts. Are any of you still wondering what the name of this corporation really is? Or how much cash FCDH will receive for each dollar of advertising on TFN? Or who the CEO really is? If any of you are still harboring any doubts to just those three simple questions, then the potential investors/owners of this stock probably are also. So what we need to help this stock is facts. Thank you to each of you who have been able to find a few tidbits of info on this company and lets all do an honest week's worth of work to find more. If some of it turns to be negative, then so be it. It is better to bring out the questions and find the answers. Removing doubt and uncertainty will push this stock into the promise land. Wait a minute! I want it in my account, OK? OK.

Andrew, this board is for people to give their opinions and ask questions. Would you rather it ONLY be a place for PRO FCDH'ers so that you only hear one opinion or side of the fence? Calm down man... If you don't think it's odd that a company at .001 is giving out millions of dollars in divi's, and others do, you might want to just listen to the questions or skepticism of others and at least take an ounce of caution about it. I for one hope this stock does go up and that divi does pay off some good cash for everyone. But don't get angry when someone who isn't an FCDH veteren comes in here with questions and concerns. You should be glad that these people are buying into the stock that you support and own, helping it grow.

I wish one could see the total number of shares, real and imaginary, and where they are expressed in real numbers and percentages. Such as shares authorized by the company, owned by the CEO, owned by individual investors, owned by the MM's, and so on. Then show how the ownership has changed over time. This way, instead of saying, "there's a lot of selling going on", you could say, "the MM's changed their percentage ownership of the total and the company, individual investors, whoever changed theirs. So apparently the MM's decided to own less and the ownership of the those share has changed". I've always had some problems with the expressions of there's a lot selling or buying today. Saying that somebody sold shares and now those same shares are with someone else makes more sense to me.

By John Eggerton -- Broadcasting & Cable, 11/23/2005 9:23:00 AM
It's hard enough for independent U.S. niche digital networks to get carriage, but Canada's Fight Network is in talks with a satellite distributor--CEO Mike Garrow wouldn't say whether it was EchoStar or DirecTV--as well as cable systems and telcos about getting U.S. carriage.
Fight fans in Canada became the luckiest fight fans in North America on Wednesday afternoon when The Fight Network officially launched. The first 24 hour television network dedicated to combative sports hit the Canadian air ways September 21st, and has an eye on moving into the American market. The Fight Network president, Mike Garrow, spoke exclusively to MMAWeekly SoundOff Radio about the network's debut, the programming, and their future plans to expand outside of Canada.
A television network solely dedicated to combative sports, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, could make channel surfing a thing of the past. OK, that may be an overstatement, but it's possible impact on Mixed Martial Arts, and fighting in general, can not be stated enough. What does it mean for MMA? "I think it's obviously going to be a pretty significant thing. I think that the support that the MMA community has obviously gotten through it's mainstream presence on Spike TV in the U.S., and in Canada has helped elevate the brand awareness, but I think that a specialty service like The Fight Network rolling out here first in Canada really will give viewers an understanding of all of the different MMA brands that are available to them." Mike Garrow told MMAWeekly.
The variety of combat sports to be aired justifies the name, The Fight Network. Garrow commented, "When you talk about what we're going to be rolling out as far as The Fight Network, we've got Pride Fight Championships. We've got thirteen events with them that's going to be airing through May of 2006. We've got with BJ Penn and the Rumble on the Rock series that's going to be coming to Canada on The Fight Network as well. We've got TKO from Montreal. We've got the Vale Tudo stuff from Brazil, so if you go back with the history of the Vale Tudo stuff, I mean it's clearly, if you want to get an idea of the evolution, if you will, of the sport of MMA, that's definitely something to check out."
He continued, "The Jungle Fight, that's something we've got as well...especially given the fact that it hasn't been aired before in Canada also lends itself to a great event...And also I wanted to get in there too, the K-1. We're really, really happy to be working with the folks from K-1, and being able to roll with K-1 to the viewers on an on going basis on the 24 hour channel."
Along with it's MMA programming, The Fight Network has a wide range of other fight related programs. Garrow said, "The Fight Network brand, and that's really what we're talking about that we're building out here. The goal of The Fight Network brand is to become the source for media from all platforms, be it television, radio, web, and even publishing for that matter, in terms of combative sports. And when we talk about combative sports, The Fight Network is focused on pro boxing, pro wrestling, and MMA as sort of the three main ones. From there The Fight Network also offers theme related movies, documentaries, and news that we'll be covering on the service 24 hours a day. In terms of The Fight Network I think we've pretty much got all the corners covered so that it's all encompassing for fight fans."
If you're an American fight fan, you're probably wondering the same thing many are. When will The Fight Network be coming to the United States? Garrow stated, "That has been question that has come in on many, many emails from many, many consumers who have obviously heard of it via the web, or via people up in Canada, or other news source outlets who have covered it even in the main steam press. All I can say is we're working on it, and that is absolutely one of our goals for us to bring The Fight Network brand into the U.S. marketplace. I think that there's tremendous potential there...All I can say is we're working on it, and once we get everything launched, and up and running in Canada, and we're quite comfortable with everything then absolutely we want to turn our attention to the U.S."
Mike further commented, "I encourage people to check out www.thefightnetwork.com, and if you go to TheFightNetwork.com I think that viewers will also notice that MMAWeekly is certainly a news contributor to The Fight Network on a daily basis, and clearly we think that MMAWeekly does cover the sport of MMA in such a broad way that it really is beneficial to the network. We obviously are friends at Maxboxing who are helping us in terms of news coverage for the boxing community, and Live Audio Wrestling which takes care of everything in terms of the pro wrestling. We really I think aggregated some pretty good news content partners for www.thefightnetwork.com, but there's a lot more that people can find out on TheFightNetwork.com about the service, how you would want to inquire about the service, and if you want to be sending us some emails as well. It just helps when we're positioning ourselves with the American carriers, and letting them know that there is clearly interest south of the border as we say."
The Fight Network doesn't just have it's eye on America, it's looking across the Atlantic into the European market as well. The Fight Network president said, "We're going to launch first in the Canadian market place. We are very much looking at the U.S. market place, and the U.K. is definitely something of interest to us, and also other parts of Europe as well."
If you're in Canada, contact your cable providers with inquiries for getting The Fight Network. Garrow advised, "The number to call, it's a toll free number in Canada, if they call this number which is 1-866-396-0003, that will take them into every cable and satellite provider in Canada that we have, and they can just let them know directly that they want to get it on."

PRESIDENT OF FIGHT NETWORK GOES ONE ON ONE WITH MMAWEEKLY
Ryan Bennett sat down with the man who will launch the first fight network in North America, Mike Garrow in our Interview of the Week.
MMAWeekly Mike you broke the story on MMAWeekly last Monday that The Fight Network has struck a deal with PRIDE FC as part of your MMA programming line up. Can you tell our readers a bit more about The Fight Network, its launch plans in Canada and what other types of programming they can look for on the channel?
Mike Garrow – The Fight Network is a cross-platform media company with interest in television, radio, print and online content offerings; we are prepared to launch our 24 7 combatant sports television specialty service into the Canadian market summer of 2005. Our channel is dedicated to delivering the best of boxing, wrestling, mixed martial arts and related movies, documentaries and news twenty-four hours a day.
The Fight Network Inc.... Ryan was granted a Category 2 broadcast license to operate in Canada a twenty-four hour specialty channel to be billed as; TFN-The Fight Network.
This license was approved by the Canadian Radio and Television Commission CRTC which is the governing body in Canada that legislates and approves the operating of broadcast services.
We where thrilled to announce our programming agreement with PRIDE FC last week. As you know and I know your readers do, PRIDE is a world class organization. The fact that our viewers in Canada will be able to view PRIDE events on a more frequent bases on our channel each month adds a great lift to our MMA line up.
MMAWeekly What is your goal for this new network?
Garrow The goal for The Fight Network is really about the building of a brand; that over time consumers will come to identify us as a multi-platform media leader in the world of combatant sports. It may seem grand but we are in this for the long haul.
MMAWeekly We have heard so many rumblings of new networks coming about, you will be the first 24 hour fight network launched in North America. What other programming will be on the network?
Garrow As I understand it we The Fight Network will be the first come August upon our Canadian launch. The fact that we are combining all various disciplines and genres makes us differ from others that have discussed in the media their versions of a “fight channel”, but at the end of the day I think it will be all the auxiliary business models that The Fight Network have planed for our brand that will set us apart.
MMAWeekly Pride of course was the first MMA organization you signed, what about other organizations?
Garrow We will be making other announcement in the coming weeks regarding other organizations we will be working with and the events we have acquired. As you know Ryan; each MMA promotion brings something a little different to the table in terms of their shows so we want to let the additional announcements stand on their own. I’m sure however when it comes time to rolling out the info we will look to MMA Weekly as a way to get the message out to readers viewers regarding the rest of our MMA line up.
MMAWeekly The Canadian fans are obviously thrilled with the announcement, but the fans in America are obviously jealous. When will we see the Fight Network comes to the States?
Garrow We have had many American consumers hit our site asking us that very question, and I’m sure when they see our new site that is scheduled to roll out with the channel launch in early July many more request will come.
All I can say at this time is we are working on it. The US is certainly a larger marketplace but if MMAWeekly readers want to request The Fight Network from their local MSO’s, Satellite and IPTV providers simply let them know about us and we will keep our American friends up to date on our progress via our new website.
MMAWeekly What are going to be the biggest obstacles you will face launching a new fight network?
Garrow Well in terms of the Canadian marketplace we have certainly passed a major one by being granted our 24 hour broadcast license by the Canadian government, but in terms of other challenges I think it will be just getting the word out that this service is up a running, but I also think we will work through that like any other new product coming to market, its about being creative and getting the message out not only through traditional media buys but grass roots and focused outlets like this interview thanks to MMA Weekly.
MMAWeekly Talk about your background. How did you get involved with the Fight Network and what is your favorite sport that you will televise on your network?
Garrow My background is from the interactive world, how I got involved in this is when they launch many of the new digital television channels in Canada I was heading up some of the WebTV application for some other companies looking to launch new services. I came up with the idea that I pitched to my buddy’s from my recreational hockey team. A 24 hour channel that showed All Fights, All the Time The Fight Network, they loved the idea I loved the idea so I went about it. As it turned out one of the guys on my team was a financer Sandy Winick he liked the idea as well. I guess you could say it was a meeting over beer and wings that got this whole thing rolling. Two years later we are getting ready to launch, it is some what surreal.
In terms of my favorite sport entertainment we will be airing pro wrestling, always loved it as a kid growing up, but I do have to say that having now attended some live MMA events and looked at a lot more shows that our programming department is pulling in I can see why people get hooked on this stuff so quickly its right up in your face, something that I’m hoping our channel will be like when it hits the airwaves this summer.
MMAWeekly We appreciate the time and can't wait to see your future which we hope includes programming in the U.S....thanks Mike.
Garrow Thank you Ryan, we are looking forward to Getting it On!

I expect it's correcting a little to its true value, being that most everyone is certain it's too late to buy in to the divi... Be interesting to see if it drops even further after the shares land in the accounts of those who aren't in this for the long haul...

Question -- on a restricted stock like SNYY you can buy shares, but not sell? Is that how it works?

I'm surprised there are people buying or selling today. Buyers can't get the divi, and sellers lose it if they sell. Weird...

I posted it a little while back that the ones that will make the real money here would sell right before dividend date. Because if you really know the sub-penny market then you would have realized what this play was all about. All non reporting companies are non reporting for a reason. And you can report to pinksheets without filing to be a reporting company to the SEC.
I said that once the dividend date hit the PPS would drop back to where it started. It has nothing to do with the company but rather with this exact same play that just about every stuck sub-penny does. When they can't move their stock they either do a forward split, a dividend in another OTC for restricted shares that usually never become unrestricted, reverse merge into another non reporting company (its a way to hide past problems by changing name and symblems like AFRT did), or say they will split off parts of their company to a OTCBB like ICAN claimed.
This is textbook sub-penny play and it is following the rules to the letter. People need to learn how sub-pennies work and quit fighting about whether the company is worth it or not. Its a sub-penny for a reason. Like this one doing a 10000/1 r/s then adding 2.5 billion back to o/s. It doesn't matter who got them they are part of the o/s now and that makes it a standard sup-penny play.
And those that don't believe that dilution just didn't happen on a large scale are fooling themselves. And all these plays will tell you it didn't too but it will come out at some point. It doesn't matter what the name is on the thread, it could be any sub-penny play. They follow the same rule book.
