    In Oregon, Stars is a chain of strip clubs so I would be all for Root switching to that when the Blazers aren't playing.

    Down here Stars is also a crappy knock off of Sonic Drive Ins ... it's pretty forgettable since I've lived here 11 years and been there once. We could use a few PDX versions of Stars down here.

    i dont work for free!

    so much this. If i have to waste 45 minutes a game sitting through commercials, ill likely just catch the highlights and not watch anymore. Life moves too quick and i have too many other things i can use that time for.

    this is just a stupid move in my opinion.
    Blazers looking to drop tv viewership ratings? This is how ya do it...

    LOL the Blazers take a huge step backwards in terms of understanding their fans.

    Everyone loves stream? Cool! We will pick a service that offers zero streaming!

    So, the only way to watch will be to switch to comcast?

    It's a rumor by some guy I've never heard of who covers baseball. I would wait until an official announcement from the Blazers.

    Well, on the bright side, when we are running back the Stotts/Dame/CJ rerun next season I can happily not pay to watch it.

    That would suck! The only reason I have Comcast is because the Mariners are on root and they aren’t available on ANY streaming service

    they paid the Mariners well though, so the blazers probably want a check

    Blazers need to go on $FUBO, the smart choice for all future digital sports. :NOTMARIS:

    I got dish sport package and I do get root channel. So to it's blessing to me. Right the Marnier play on that channel I believe Portland scorer and maybe seattle.
