But I’ll take mine down.

Sounds interesting. I hope it has some basis in reality.

I hope that any sort of subscription would be cheaper than NBA League Pass

:(

I will be a little upset if I have to pay separately for this and they don’t archive the games a la NBA LPBB.

Blazers: New Option to Comcast Coming This Season

Sarah Mensah, Chief Marketing Officer of the Blazers on 95.5 today responded to questions about the Comcast situation.

""We aren’t planning to go into this next season without an option for fans. .. Look for us to have a different situation as we go into this next season with Comcast, no matter what. … I think we are exploring a multitude of different possibilities for what it could be … not ready to really talk about what specifically is on the table, but I think fans should rest assured we’re not going to go into the season again this coming year with the same situation where there aren’t any options."

This person does have Comcast available to them. However, this person absolutely refuses to change providers and does so as a matter of principle, not because he is cheap. Like I said, you must be a Comcast employee because you’re just not seeing the bigger picture here. The bigger picture is that Comcast made this $10 million/year deal with the Blazers with both of them agreeing that they would give access to the other providers “in good faith.” Comcast have made their true monopolistic move here by not getting this deal done in hopes that people will blindly flock to their service like sheeple (people that are sheep). I am not a farm animal. Many, many others are and no doubt Comcast has benefited greatly here. I stand here with my wonderful service of Direct TV and refuse to play this game of chase the corporation into oblivion. Many of my friends and associates feel the very same way and aren’t going to be bullied by a corporation. There is no shame in this nor are we as good consumers trying to shame anyone else. It is a simple fact that if the Blazers want to take even more money out of our pockets for what is indeed our right as cable/dish/etc subscribers we will feel resentment. Tis’ not out of cheapness my dear, but out of principle. Something I fear is very lost in this most consumer and profiteering based economy that we call America…
