Broadcasting all games except @Sac and @ Utah.

 

[<-=*PdX*=->]

may I ask why they would not choose to broadcast those 2 games? Logistics? I would think plenty of people would tune in to make it worthwhile?

 

[THE HCP]

I can find out.

Where is Power Balance Arena? Is that the new name for Arco or are they playing Sacramento in some oddball venue?

Yes, that's the new name for Arco II. A dump by a different name is still a dump.

Tell me about it. I have to go out their once a week for work. I hear the arena is pretty good for catching a game though. It is the drive home that would suck after a few beers. About a 60 miles for me.
