Re: Not in North America?!?

proof that pro sports is about money and controling how we see the game and not about the game itself as entertainment.

imo the FCC should make all this blackout shit illegal, if you are going to broadcast a game then you should have no right to say sorry(insert city here)since you live in the same town as the game you cant watch it on the TV come spend 300 bucks for a family and anotehr 150 for the food.

Very few NFL games are blacked out in their local cities. Because almost every regular season NFL game in every city is sold out before the season even starts.

Totally. Anyone who wants to watch football (or any other sport) being played as a sport (and not a business) will watch [non-BCS, non-big-time, non-big-money] college teams or, better yet, their local high school teams. Like, yeah, I wanna spend my money to help payoff multi-million dollar contracts to a bunch of divas...nuh-uh.

Re: $249.99 ?

If I were stationed abroad I sure as hell would think about it... the time difference may be an issue, but I can picture bars/pubs that are popular w/ US Military personnel stationed overseas buying this package and offering the games for viewing.

Re: Not in North America?!?

btw just dont use a C-Band dish and pull the game from out of market if you own a bar. the NFL sued a bar owner once for showing a game in his bar because the bar was in a blackout area but he used one of the big C-Band dishes to pull from out of market.

i just hope the NFL lost that lawsuit because they cant really say sorry you cant pull that from orbit(if its in the air its open game).

MLB wants to sue Slingbox for this very reason, they fear slingbox could allow viewing of games in areas where the league doesnt want the game shown.
