| I hate how people are all but forced to get the full-blown cable now. I wouldn't even have any cable if not for sports. Back just 10 years, I could watch my midwest team on the normal broadcast channels. Every single normal and post-season game. Now, you not only need basic cable, but the package that includes MLB channel. I know it's all about money, but how sad. Retirees can't just turn on the game anymore. No one can unless you have cable. UGGHH. |

see my posts in 'cutting cable' thread in tv/books forum.
There's a reason why the NBA was able to get 3x the rights fees from turner and disney today. The demand for live sports is what keeps cable/sat operators in business. OP, try this link: http://cricfree.tv/live/watch/washington_nationals_at_san_francisco_giants_/59108 it's not going to be hdtv quality, but it might be serviceable for you. |

Yeah, you should have heard the tirade I went on this weekend about the fact that college football was on network tv and the Nats game was relegated to cable.
But the, I hate college football and all it represents... |
I know! I couldn't believe that either. Ended up listening to last night's game on the radio, which was kind of fun actually. |
Me too! After my tantrum over not finding it on our Direct TV, I enjoyed it on radio. |
| Baseball is for old men on the east coast - that's the key demographic. Young adults are much more interested in college football so unfortunately baseball's presence on tv is only gonna get worse from here on out. |
