Have they announced which channel the Rockets will be on? UPN again? cuz wasn't it 39, then 51, then 20? So they signed a contract w/20? thx
No word yet, but KTXH would probably be the most likely outlet. Expect funky schedule things (ie: mostly late/weekend games on 20 and not a tidy home/road split), because UPN is making a pretty serious move to "network" status with "Enterprise" and "Buffy." I'm curious how things are going to go on the radio side this year. Incidentally, the deal was KTXH (many seasons); then KHWB 39 (2 seasons), KTBU 55 (two weeks? last season), KTXH (remainder season).
I hope it's still on 20-Vision err UPN. Would not surprise me if KNWS 51 wanted to get a monopoly on the Rockets and Astros. That would suck though since KNWS gets s#itty reception on Time Warner Cable. Would Pax want in? They don't really have any network-type shows that they'd have to show.
