Wow...thats interesting. SO what about the WGN and their deals with the Cubs and Chisox??

Also, what if you have cable or dish and you order the sports packages like FOX Sports (whatever region)?? Would you still get most of the MLB games? Or do they black them out now??

WGN has half of the Cubs games and Comcast has the other half..I'm guessin the Sox are the same..I just get mlb.tv for the games that are on comcast..very good quality this year

Don't have cable or Dish, so I don't know what they offer.

'Wave of the future', loosely translated more $$$$ for the clubs.

Sunday games are the only games that the Cardinals allow on their network. 20 games, the rest have to be paid for. If they show a game on ESPN that is on Fox Sports Midwest then DirectTV will block it. What kind of crap is that? Didn't ESPN pay for the rights to show that game? Don't I pay DirectTV to show ESPN?

All times are GMT -6. The time now is 11:01 AM.
