    I wonder if all the "see you on the plane's" finally caught up to Barrett. Cool, you ride on the same plane as the players, no one cares!

    You won't find another announcer in the league who has to remind the fans after a player interview that he'll be seeing them on the plane. Its pretty amateur.

    I know I'll catch grief for this, but its something that always bothered me.

    My gripe with Vue and Sling TV is the audio format. Stereo only.

    Lots of you saying "Fox Sports and Root Sports suck, boring". Why does that matter? How many of you watch CSN besides the Blazer games? The Blazer broadcast isn't boring, doesnt suck. Fox Sports and Root Sports are available on DirectTV. That fact alone makes this amazing news.

    I agree. Other than the fact some may be thinking that before and after coverage of the Blazers will be boring? IMO during as well if they hire Steve Smith

    you should know by now, some fans just have to bitch about everything. They're loud, and therfore, think their opinion is more important and more supported than it is.

    As long as there is a streaming option and a partnership with Direct TV, anything will be better than the Comcast deal.

    The streaming option is essential; it's 2016 already. Let me buy a fucking season pass on iTunes for $245 and keep the games in my library!
