Screw Fox, Bud Selig and MLB

[Old Style]

There is NO reason why those of us not in Chicago should not be able to watch this game right now. This game will be over before the damn Fox game even starts, not that I would watch that POS game anyway. The [expletive] blackout rule needs to change. It only screws the fans.

It's showing up on MLB.tv for me for some reason, I thought it was gonna get blacked out so I was pissed before I tried it

[ctcf]

I've never had a problem getting a Saturday game on MLB.tv if it started before or after the Fox games.

I've been blacked out all week. Was blacked out everyday for the cinci series and today. If I didn't love the Cubs I would boycott MLB in protest.

[Wheelimus]

I sure hope nobody PM's me a link to an HD torrent of this game later...

As inexcusable as the blackout is, it may have saved my TV. Since I wasn't able to watch the game it prevented me from throwing something at the TV in disgust when Marmol was stinking and Lou leaving him in.

 

Nonetheless, the blackout is indefensible and has to be ended.

I think everytime except for two times the Cubs have been on Fox over the past two years, there has been a Yankees or Mets game on that has superceded it. Lame.

[Soul]

Fox's contract needs to be changed. I'm deliberately avoiding their stupd Dback/Phillies game right now. As if someone in Wisconsin gives a damn about those two teams.

 

In retrospect though -- I'm kind of glad to not have seen this one on TV. My heart might have exploded.
