August 16, 200817 yr Ok, so Fox has the rights to these Saturday games and whatnot to broadcast them nationally. Fine. They pick up more than one game at a time and they are broadcast simultaneously... ok fine, I can live with that. They have 2 games, and since I live on the East Coast I'm almost always pre-empted by a Yankees, Mets, or Phillies game. Very rarely do I actually get to see a Sox broadcast, even today when there is no east coast game on what I see right now is the Angels-Indians game. Not that big of a deal, that's why I get MLB.tv right? So I can watch games out-of-market that I normally wouldn't get to see? WRONG!! The same thing applies to Extra Innings if I'm not mistaken. Ugh I HATE this. ESPN games are blacked out on MLB.tv but I don't care, since I can at least SEE the games on ESPN, unlike Fox. If you're only going to broadcast near the home market and show the rest of the country a f***ing Yankees game, and at the same time preventing them from seeing it on other means, why should you be carrying the broadcast in the first place?
