[Titan]

Dang, not gonna be fun trying to figure out how to watch the blazers next year for me.

That would suck! The only reason I have Comcast is because the Mariners are on root and they aren’t available on ANY streaming service

they paid the Mariners well though, so the blazers probably want a check

 

[Natebishop3]

I love that fucking over the fans isn't even something they care about.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Blazers need to go on $FUBO, the smart choice for all future digital sports.

 

[James lamphear]

I got dish sport package and I do get root channel. So to it's blessing to me. Right the Marnier play on that channel I believe Portland scorer and maybe seattle.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Funny thing is, I can pay for YTTV I can pay for cable (cable might even be cheaper, honestly), but I won't stand for this shit. These cable companies are trying to force their shit down people's throats so that they would go back to cable and kill off the momentum of streaming services. Fuck that. Streaming services are here to stay and cable companies better get used to it or adopt a new business model to compete.

We should pitch in for a group Slingbox.

I'd like to cancel McGowan.

So all of you know who this guy is on twitter who posted this rumor?

 

[Wizard Mentor]

So, does Hulu no longer have live sports?

 

[ehizzy3]

I do have a hard time believing this. Everyone says Seattle will be getting an NBA team soon and it would be a guarantee Root Sports would pay for their rights. They can’t afford two nba tv deals

They will create two channels, one for Seattle and one for Portland. They'll call them Sroot and Proot!

 

[James lamphear]

Didn't they use to be on root long time ago?

 

[Jon]

i used to have YouTube tv and CONcast internet, along with Netflix, Disney+, Hulu (non live, but ad free) and a couple other things. it was much cheaper to switch back to cable and internet through CONcast. so i guess this doesn't really effect me.

yes but at that time it was fox sports northwest

the fees for Comcast are crazy. The best deals are only for new customers as well

I wanted to downgrade my internet and keep the same cable package and the only deal the guy on the phone could offer me cost MORE than what I was paying before. But I tweeted at @comcastcares on Twitter and they found about the same as I was paying but with downgraded internet. The fees and taxes are ridiculous

 

[HolyBackboard]

I refuse to go back to cable ... the extra equipment, hidden fees, constantly dealing with wrong billing amounts.

The Blazers are moving to Seattle!!!!!

 

[Chris Craig]

There are always ESPN and TNT games

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Let's go burn down the Rose Garden, Blazers nerds!

Alright, alright, peacefully protest.

Fantifa!

 

[Orion Bailey]

The Blazers are moving to Seattle!!!!!

Dude... you know that line your not supposed to cross???

look behind you...

 

[Orion Bailey]

Fantifa!

now that was funny!

 

[OneSport3]

I'm waiting until there is an official announcement from the Blazers. If the Blazers move to a different channel I hope there will be better pregame and postgame programming about the Blazers because ComcastNWSportsWhatever has not been good.

If this results in no more postgame shows with Danny Marang, I’m all for it.

 

[Chris Craig]

Dude... you know that line your not supposed to cross???

You startled me...just a Wall...whew I'm safe

 

[Natebishop3]

You don't support one of our own rising to stardom!?!?!

 

[DDolla]

Just want to know if this impact Hurd, Kent and Brooke?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Shouldn't, they're part of Blazer broadcasting which is separate from Comcast.

 

[Natebishop3]

Pretty sure when Wheels was the radio guy, he has a contract independently with the team so it doesn't matter what channel they're on.

 

[OneSport3]

I watch Blazers games on NBCSports NW all the time and still don't know who the hell Danny Marang is. After Brooke is done with the interview, I'm done, too.

That just means you’re making some good, sound decisions.
