Game Thread GAME 77: BLAZERS @ TIMBERWOLVES - APRIL 3, 2017 - MONDAY, 4:00 PM (PST), CSNNW

[Strenuus]

This is (to me) the official start of baseball season. The best day in all of sports. I get home at 2 PM from work... I will catch the first hour of this and then watch the mariners opener. Then watch as many games as I can throughout the night on archive.

(MLB package is the best in all of sports, as well. $112 bucks for games every single day for 8 months)

Wait, not only are you going to bother watching a 4-hour live game of arguably the worst franchise in the MLB (Go M's!) - but you're then going to watch replays of other games? Aren't 162 over the season enough?

 

[Scalma]

This should be a home game why the fuck should our team have to travel there they did nothing wrong, wolves should be the ones getting punished.

I try to watch 4-5 games a day. One of them being the M's - then usually a braves, D-backs, and Rockies game. I like their announcers, tell the game real well.

And no, there are never enough games.

Gotta keep it rolling, but KAT w/o Nurk will be tough. Need a hot shooting night from Dame.

Bullshit man and after it already being postponed

Bullshit man and after it already being postponed

And a LAST MINUTE addition.

Why the hell do I pay this inflated price for league pass only to have them to fuck me every time by making last minute additions to a service that can't be streamed?!

 

[Chris Craig]

I like the Blazers chances to do some damage in these last 6 games even without Nurk. They are dialed in, a well oiled machine, even making up for Butters play. I think they will fair well.

I think the whole black out thing is pretty fucking stupid myself. If a customer is going to pay all that money to subscribe to league pass, it is common sense they are doing so to watch the their local team ( Though the Blazers have many fans and those not in Oregon get to watch them on league pass) it's idiotic for it to be blocked out, they need to fix that shit

 

[Chris Craig]

I was going to get league pass and found out about the blackouts and said hell no...so they are losing potential customers too

I hear PlayStation Vue is good

I swear this has to be some sort of FCC violation. I'm paying for a service that promised that I should be able to watch THIS game (it was not on the NBA TV schedule prior to today).

There are no national broadcasters or anything fancy. They are just taking the exact same broadcast that was on league pass and putting it on NBA TV, while blacking out all the league pass customers. This is straight $ out of my pocket everytime a game is added to NBA TV.

I've been complaining for years now on LP support, and they do nothing! Unless they fix this, I'm gonna quit subscribing next season.

Precisely why I won't purchase League Pass.

Same. $200 for 29 teams I don't care about doesn't make any sense.
