    Hey,

    So here's a tricky question for yah.

    I'm a DirecTV customer in Eugene, OR

    Our regional sports networks are FSNNW and CSNB (Bay Area, yeah odd I know)

    So...

    I'm wondering if I were to get NBA League Pass, would I be able to see Blazers games or would they be blacked out based on geography and not on my directv regional sports networks.

    Its tough for me to figure out with certainty cause Comcast customers down here get CSNNW.

    Any help is appreciated.

    I know for baseball you are in overlapping blackout regions for the Mariners and I believe Oakland (and possibly SF). It sure could be the same with the Warriors and Blazers, although I am pretty sure the Blazers own all of Oregon to themselves so you will be blacked out from them guaranteed.

    Yah, the overlapping blackout regions for baseball really doesn't matter though since i get to see both the mariners and giants games through their respective sports network channels anyways.

    It will be interesting to see if I get to watch warriors games.

    When I was in the dorms last year I got to watch Jazz games on comcasts feed of FSNNW so that was kinda neat.

    Going on three years now is ridiculous. They make the Roy-LA negotiation look like it was done in a second.
