    Honestly. Does anyone in Portland actually watch the Mariners? And if you do--Shame on You! JK

    I know there is no chance of ever getting an MLB team. But I can dream can't I...... The Portland Hacky Sacks.

    If this is true, I wonder if Quick et al will jump ship or just get laid off from CSNNW. Without the Blazers, there is no point in watching that horrible network. Soccer and hockey reruns aren't going to keep them afloat.

    Just get Playstation Vue, I know you have a Ps4. It has CSN on it for Oregon, or at least it does down here.

    Ive got direct tv but ill still have to get league pass.

    Fun fact about league pass. I paid for it on auto renewal back in october, last game of season i called and told then i wanted to cancle the auto renewal cause i was going to order through direct tv next year. They not only cancled it, but refunded me for last season. So essentially I got league pass for free last year.

    I'm stuck with Internet that tops out at 6mb and a wife to share it with. Not enough speed to cord cut unfortunately.

    I'm thinking must the 1/4 mile driveway we are on. Century Link is the only one that will come up here and it's garbage price :( Charter comes up to the main road but won't install down our driveway unless we want to pay for it and it's like 10 grand Lolz.

    The city that inhabited the Sonics is getting way to much mention in this forum. Fuck them

    Charter sucks balls, their shit doesn't even completely work even after they make you pay crazy prices like that.

    Unfortunately those are the main options here :( we had Charter for 2 years at our last place and never paid more than $35 for 50 down. I'd kill for 1/2 that now though.

    Charter and Century Link are the only options here too, those companies must have a stranglehold on rural-ish Oregon.

    The Oregonian fucked up and this was a premature article that the Blazers said was NOT completed and negotiations are STILL in the works. Only read the first page of this thread though. Maybe someone else pointed that out as well.

    I do watch the Mariners. Grew up a cubs fan, became a Mariners fan in the late 90's.

    I honestly don't understand the Seattle hate. (not saying you, just in general). It just seems like a big waste of time.

    Yeah. You're right. It's like they say in movies sometimes, "it's complicated." I sometimes go WTF and then I'll chance upon some social media tidbit a friend forwards me and I'm like "Ohhh I remember why I hate those guys." It's just that way rival cities are the world over, LA/SF, Boston/NY, Houston/Dallas.... goes with the territory.

    I mean, I get rivalry... but it's not too difficult to differentiate and separate the city from the team (or player on a team) I hate the lakers, and I hated Kobe... but I don't hate LA as a city... some people just hate everything about a city because of something that's separate from the city. (Even if they are a representation of it, it's still separate).
