Comcast pushing for deal.

     As most

       As most of you know, I've been very outspoken

in my criticism of this gigantic cable company. As a

30 + year Blazermaniac living in Medford, few things

over the years have taken priority over the Blazer TV schedule,

outside of the Blazer express to 6-12 home games yearly.

The 06-07 was fantastic, as I subscribed to NBA

League Pass and watched 75 + Blazer games.

With the new season looming and the blackout still in place,

I was suprised when I recieved a message from Comcast

Sports NW. They were inquiring about billboard space

in the Southern Oregon area, for the purpose of

featuring the Blazers & Ducks in an advertising campaign.

When I returned the call, the represenative explained that

they wanted satellite & cable customers to " Ask your sattelite

or cable company to add Comcast Sports NW to the channel

lineup".

     Being that Charter Communications is our only available

cable company, I believe we may be able to use this opportunity

to push them to add CSNW in a special sports tier. I don't care

what the cost; BRING BACK OUR BLAZERS ! Now is the time

to increase the pressure.  I found BE in the fall of 2006 and

I know my fellow Blazermaniacs from the "Edge" will help us

in our mission.  Call list follows.
