    And if there are 100,000 blazer fan households and bars willing to pay the $15 per month the Blazers would make $1.5 million per month. Plus any advertising. $18 million per year.

    It will happen soon. Shit the MLS just started doing this last weekend. $79 a year to watch every game in the league, any team, no blackouts.

    Crazy not to, IMHO.

    This is just a 4 year contract with Root, right? So, at worst, 2 more years before we have the option to switch...

    Did you watch them last week? This article is 2 weeks old.

    I thought it was interesting for games where we're not trying to win.

    Understandable. It was kinda interesting. Couldn't possibly watch it during a game I wanted to take serious.
