Preseason Games Broadcast On CSN....

[THE HCP]

We had our preseason production meeting out at the practice facility yesterday, couple things came out I thought I'd share.
Don't know of somebody else had posted this somewhere, but we ARE broadcasting 3 preseason games. Was kind of a last second thing, so didn't know if it was announced.
October 3rd and 5th and the 9th @ Sacramento will be covered by us. All 3 will be on CSN here locally and it looks like NBATV has picked them up as well.

Looks like we play the Clips and Suns on the road. Don't think those guys broadcast their preseason games, but that hasn't stopped links to big screen shows to pop up online like they have in the past.

Starting this weekend I believe, CSN will change it's name to NBC SportsNW. Also since I have DirecTV and never really paid attention, but, since ALL of our games will be broadcast on CSN.....errrr....NBC SportsNW..... all of our games starting in the regular season will be streamed on the NBCSports app. And a reminder, you can watch them on Youtube as well.

Going to have a new SUPER DUPER telestrator this season integrated into the show. We'll see if me and Lamar can get on the same page when it comes to diagraming some stuff with it.

Anyway, hope some on here don't think this is bragging about my job, just wanted to share some behind the scenes stuff I'm actually allowed to. Please don't quit because of this.......

Getting Comcast out of the name is a really good move.

Agreed.

Agreed.

But still not available on DirectTV.

But still not available on DirectTV!

It's kind of surprising Directv didn't bother to get a deal done when they started their streaming service. Of course, they don't have the Pac 12 channel either, they obviously don't think much of northwest sports.

No unfortunately. Just hate that. My FAMS at home can't even watch games. BeerBoy, I know that you can't watch CSN on their app if you are away from your home network, wonder if this NBCSports app will allow it??

 

[Pinwheel1]

Well I am pumped to know I get to see them on TV in 4 days on NBA TV!

It's not on directv's end. I am in the know as the kids say.

I know the Pac 12 at least doesn't negotiate in good faith to get their channel on services, only Dish, Comcast and some obscure soccer streaming service has it outside of Spectrum in Socal I think.

Thanks for the update.

That's it. I've seen enough of HCP bragging about his job. I'm out

 

[dviss1]

Who here has playstation Vue? Since they changed the name (just clever enough to be scandalous) is this station included in the package or do I have to pay for a separate sports package?

CSN is still listed. He did say this weekend though.

HCP is from the future, kind of like East coast time.

I heard the official day CSN changes to NBCSNW is on Monday morning.

Stay. If we all brag about our jobs maybe we can get HCP to leave. Worth a shot?

I can try bragging about college, but it's not that interesting. Well I guess saying I pay it $500 a year could make some people jealous

You rang FAMS?

Are Blazer games that get picked up on NBATV blacked out on the NBCSportsNW app? I cut the cord last year and just went with streaming league pass and this was a serious annoyance. My cable bill doubles if I want the stupid package with NBA TV.

 

[illmatic99]

Fuck NBA TV. Biggest scam in television.

I don't believe so man.

You wouldn't be able to watch it locally on NBATV, but it should be on the app.

I have never seen so much hatred for a tv channel. Please explain what happened between you two.

i'm blacked out on league pass. If NBA TV hadn't picked it up (they do this last minute where they randomly pick up games to broadcast throughout the season), i would be able to watch games I pay for. To get NBA TV, the cheapest option for me is to get it on the sling tv package for $30/month. What's the point of NBA league pass blacking out NBA TV games when they don't have national tv announcers or anything else to add to regular teams' broadcasts?

It's infuriating to buy the "follow one team" streaming option and then you get blacked out when they have games picked up last minute on NBA TV. I miss quite a few games between national ESPN and TNT broadcasts and NBA TV. It is a scam.
