Title: Comcast blacking out SNY for Marquette game in Chicago again
Post by: Marqevans on December 17, 2011, 04:15:12 PM
I called Comcast and they could not explain why it was being blacked out. The rep said they hadn't gotten any other complaints about it.  We got the Georgetown game and the West Virginia game. Come on Chicagoans call Comcast and ask why we are not getting the game. It's only supposed to be blacked out in Milwaukee because of the local telecast!

I live 1000 miles from Milwaukee and have had every game blacked out.  Was told it was because I can get Time Warner locally and they have the rights to the game.

I'm in Chi and dumped Concash for Directv this year. Added Sports Pack for $7.99/mo and I can view all but 2 MU games this year (Winthrop and Jacksonville, whoopee).

I have DirecTV and SNY does not carry all the games here in New Jersey. What is nice though when SNY dose'nt carry the game, MASN does and visa versa. However both carry most games. SNY is carrying the LSU game while MASN will carry the UWM game.

Correct about the UWM game on MASN (640).....the LSU game is on multiple channels and not on SNY (639).  It is on FS South (646), FS South Alt (648-1), FS Florida (654), FS Wisconsin (669-1), and 695-1.  FYI....I just listed the HD broadcasts as there are others in SD.

I'm picking them up in Tulsa via AT and T Uverse.  The new Big East needs it's own network 24/7, 365 days a year.  It's doable.  If the BE doesn't do it Marquette should on it's own featuring athletics and athletics. )available on cable and streaming)

Time Warner cable is brutal. Just upgrade to Direct TV and you will get basically every game. And the sports pack is only $7 a month or so. A dollar a game...totally worth it.

When I posted SNY had it on the TV schedule, but your right it was removed and is available on all those other channels you noted.

Dang it.. doesn't look like Comcast (Mpls) has the LSU game on tomorrow.  Is your establishment going to be showing it?

675 and 685 on DTV as well, though I'm not sure in which regions that might help anybody.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I have noticed that when the big east network carries a game the big east team is always at home. Perhaps why SNY and MASN not carrying the game against LSU.

Home team gets the TV arrangements.  That is why MU was on the Big 10 Network at Wisconsin.
