    Just subscribed to NBA Broadband League Pass.

    The first Nets game was blacked out, tonight's game is blacked out, and their next game is blacked out.

    Their ad read "Follow your favorite teams wherever you are". They lie.

    I've sent them some very nasty e-mails, and if they don't fix the problem by the time I get my credit card bill, I will have the charge removed.

    Just some words of warning.

    If it's registered in an area that gets YES it will be blacked out where ever you are.

    This is worrying me too. On Wednesday, every game was blacked out. We don't get any NBA basketball except what's on ABC, ESPN, and TNT. So if a bunch of Bulls games start getting blacked out, I will be pissed.

    Like just looking at the early set of games for me, , Boston and Indiana are blacked out for me, and Golden St and New Jersey are blacked out for me.

    Why the fuck are these games blacked out in Missouri?

    You can try playing around with proxies until you find one that works. Are there any Montana proxies? : D

    Washington vs. Detroit...blacked out....Cleveland vs. Hornets, blacked out. Dallas vs. Minnesota, blacked out.

    I don't understand this at all.

    Is MisterMontross in an area that gets YES? I thought I knew what city he lives in and it's nowhere near NJ.

    Me neither. Aren't you in Wisconsin?

    That's why I was confused about Montross's post. It sounds like the thing is broken.

    I'm in St. Louis. NBA,com & Turner have seriously fucked up, but it's taking them a long time to 'fess up to that fact, just like with Donaghy.

    Missouri, which has no NBA team within the state, or anywhere close for that matter.

    Yes, I didn't want to give your location to potential stalkers. :tongue2: :NOTMARIS:

    I still don't get it. What possible reason is there to black out a Nets game for someone registered in St. Louis?

    Maybe it's a Missouri thing, then? Did your governor piss off David Stern or something?

    It looks like the blackouts tonight were the result of an error, as they are available to watch in the archive. Legit blackout games aren't available in the archive.

    Not archived here. It says 'archived' for last nights Knick game, but click on it and I get 'game blacked out', and all you can get is game stats.

    Viva NBA!!!!

    I am going to fly to St. Louis and knock on every door until I find Montross. How big can the metro area be?

    As long as these Bulls games keep avoiding blackout, I will be content. But come on, way too many games are blocked out for me being in a city with no NBA teams withing like 320 miles (I think Chicago's the closest, but I could be wrong).
