    As people have stated its sad that CSN is perceived so negatively because of this Comcast nonsense. It really does put out a great Houston-centric product. I recommend all of your guys to check out their website.

    I'm not less of a fan I just can't be as much as a hardcore fan because of it. I find myself going to friends to watch the game or national tv and etc.

    I don't have Comcast either sir. I said a true diehard fan would still find a way to watch. I couldn't even imagine life without being able to watch the Rockets. Even when they were mind numbingly mediocre the previous few years. No stupid TV deal will ever stand in between me and my team. Where there is a will, there is always a way. I don't have Comcast and I haven't missed a single game.

    Comcast sucks as a company but they provide the best internet in Houston at the best price and CSN is a very good product. Also, I've become a more intense fan since all this started happening.

    Mine hasnt, but i have been forced to use ball streams. I know many casual fans that have dropped off this year though. Bad timing on their part.

    I guess you never had to turn the radio on in the 90s? must be nice.

    i never miss a game either.

    But I personally take offense to the rockets decision to partner with CSN and screw the city over. thats why i dont watch unless its on national tv. thats me though, i dont stand when an injustice is done, not even by my fav team.

    so ill continue to refresh my espn app on the phone for scores, sit in my car and listen, thats how i never miss a game.

    your fandom shouldnt be determined if you are able to watch the games or not is all im saying.

    No fandom has not gone down. I record every national tv game and am very thankful for htownsports.

    As a Rockets fan for 29 years who does not live anywhere near Houston, I'll say this.

    It could be a lot worse.

    not at all, I don't have comcast and I have watched every game so far this year (Except when I'm stuck at work of course). Ballstreams and Roku and Apple TV FTW.

    Ballstreams. Seriously, it is worth the money and twice that. HD quality and i can watch on my TV, i've caught every game this season.

    I even watch on my phone when i'm traveling.

    Roxnation has single handedly made me a big fan again.
