Mind boggling. If Les wanted $$$ he should have games not sold out blacked out NOT sold out games already. Also, Time Warner loses customers by having people like me switch to Satelite tomarrow. I wonder if ch 51 is in a deal with direct tv or something? What a way to start off the year. Man time warner sucks. Whoever from the rockets decided to have Ch 51 blocked out should be fired. Whats weird is I dont even live in Harris County and its STILL blocked out.
What exactly is this "regulation" that allows TNT is block out our season opener? If knws isnt airing the game, why is it being blocked out?
The deal they made with TNT was that they would be the ONLY network allowed to show games on Thursday nights. If that game was a local game, it was subject to a blackout, but I thought they had gotten around that some way. Obviously, they did on dish.
Blah, that was pretty stupid deal. Considering our home opener was on thursday night. Time to watch survivor.
Tuesday's game in SA WAS NOT blacked out... but then again, it was on local TV. TWC is screwey.... they probably set this up MONTHS ago, and didn't realize what they were supposed to be doing.
and of course........TIME WARNER is not answering the phone, I have been on hold for 20 minutes now !!!!!!!!!
Well, I guess I can enjoy the highlights later. I never thought I would envy Clutch's ability to see the Rockets in Austin!!! I guess I should get league pass just to see the Rockets IN HOUSTON!!!
I vow to bootleg these games nad rip off the NBA, satellite and cable companies. I own a descrambling converter box, but obviously it's not enough. I vow to purchase bootleg satellite equipment and get free feeds to these games. I want to puke I just can't friggin believe the Rockets and the NBA would do this to their fans. -- droxford
I just talked to the operator at TC and they saide time warners in the process of fixing this problem.
This *hit sux big time and this isn't the only time theres another game possibly going to be blacked out vs Dallas.
DON'T be too quick to blame the Rockets. Since this game IS on satellite in Houston, it IS NOT BLACKED OUT BY THE ROCKETS. Its TIME WARNER who's doing the only blacking out in Houston. This problem could still be fixed before the game is over.
in the process??? what do they have to do? flip a switch? Jessuus h Christ ......this sucks.... Tim said they would all be televised....
WTF, this is total and absolute horse ****, please excuse the language, but this is simply inexcusable. Can't really say much else, this ****ing rage is all consuming, nice going Rockets.
