    Serious question because I don't follow this issue at all... will Comcast have the new channel?

    Game against the 76ers. Will only miss 4 games that will be on ComCast since the Wolves game will be on ESPN and the Spurs will be on TNT.

    Not at first. Maybe in the future.

    The only people who will get this channel are those with Comcast, DirecTV, and AT&T U-Verse.

    Other companies like Suddenlink and Dish can still pick up the channel if they want... but they'll have to negotiate and whatnot. So they can pick it up in the future, but as of right now, it's only going to be on Comcast , DirecTV, and U-Verse.

    Ugh... I hate living in an area that doesn't offer U-Verse.

    Do we think Direct TV in Austin will carry this channel? That will keep me from having to buy NBA League Pass.

    This is only relevant if you live in the greater Houston area. Otherwise you will have to buy league pass.

    I believe Austin is regional to the SA since you have the affiliate Austin Spurs of the D-League near by. Down here in RGV the affiliate Vipers makes the RGV regional to H-Town.

    Hasn't been announced yet. Likely won't until much closer to the first day of programming.

    I expect Direct TV in Austin will carry the channel, but Rocket games will be blacked out.

    Yes, everyone who has AT&T, DirecTV, and Comcast will have the channel, but people outside the H-Town region will need league pass to see the games like myself. I'm in NY, but I get the LP every year, so I will have it with DirecTV.

    I believe for people in H-Town region it will be included as a RSN network(As in regional sports network) and a regular channel.

    Example, I, like said am in NY, I get SNY, MSG and YES Network as my local RSNs included. But have the Sports Pack for all other RSNs(CSN channels, and others for College Football).

    I have DirecTV and had both FSSW & FSWH here in the hill country nw of SA. Hopefully I'll have the ROOT Houston channel also.
