DirecTV no Bueno

Blacked out on NESN Plus nationwide. Asked 4 people all over the country to check the station and all got nothing. All have the sports pack.

Unbelievable. I'm with a group of very angry App fans in Charlotte.

DTV said it was American Sports Network who called the blackout. I had some choice words for them. ASN are aholes.

I was on the phone with Directv for a little over an hour. They tried adding a sports pack so I could get the game and it STILL DID NOT WORK!
They said it was part of the New England coverage area. What??
I'm ready to switch to Dish. :evil:

Ch 450 SD and 450 HD on Dish. Watched the game with sound off and listened to DJ. Can't tolerate Donnan. At the beginning he argued that Lamb was a true freshman. He brought up a pre game talk with Lamb's mother.

Ditto except Channel 48 on DirecTV. I got in my shot at Donnan in a separate post.

Schools should always be able to provide a video feed. Should be an NCAA rule that if it's broadcast at all the school can provide a feed to their fans.

Asheville's my 40 is on Direct TV and I was able to watch it last night. Wonder if the blackout was for specific markets only? Bush move by ASN, especially when you're a fledging product trying to get into homes. Weird.
