NHL question

After many years of wishing, I will finally have satellite service this Saturday. I ordered the Dish Network multi-sport pack fully knowing that games such as the NHL, NBA, and MLS are blacked-out because they are part of Center Ice or League Pass, or Direct Kick. I actually bought the package to watch some other things but, in the course of browsing some other forums, I believe I read that the early-morning replays of NHL games are not blacked-out. Can anyone confirm if this is true?

For what its worth I've called DISH and emailed the NHL several times regarding blackouts of replays. Everytime I have called DISH they agree that a replay should not be blacked out. On one occasion the CSR said it was an error on their part, that the replay was not on the blackout list. It didn't fix anything, but she said that she would submit the issue to programming and have them "review" their blackout list. On the other occasion I was told that the replay was on the blackout list, so I emailed the NHL and received a reply that they would work with FSN-NY (it was a devils game) to make sure they didn't blackout replays. Don't hesitate to email the NHL and/or send them letters for these types of issues, they always tend to respond. In fact a couple of seasons ago they blacked out game 6 of the ducks/calgary playoff game on versus here in san diego since it was on KDOC-56 in LA/OC. You can't get KDOC with an antenna in san diego, nor can DISH offer it in san diego, so I had no game. I was pissed!!!! After I sent a letter to both the ducks and the NHL, I received a call from the NHL to let me know that they were aware of the problem, she apologized and told me that they fixed the problem so that if the ducks were on an out of market OTA station, it would not be blacked on in san diego on versus or center ice. True to her word, last season any game on KDOC wasn't blacked out on center ice or versus!

I used to tivo the replays when the original airing was a feed from the other team (so I could listen to the broadcast from my team's announcers) and about 9 out of 10 times this worked fine, but there would be the occasional black out on the replay.

It also used to be that if you subscribed to the center ice package and the RSN package it would open up the blackout since you subscribed to that same feed on another channel. My question in this scenario is if the RSN feed is available in HD but the center ice feed is SD, would it still 'open' the RSN HD feed... only time will tell I guess.

I too am a Devils fan (in Ohio) and hope I can get FSN-NY in HD

From what I've seen, the RSN HD feed is only live when there's a live HD game. So I don't think you'll see replays on the HD feed.

I'm afraid as far as FSNY and MSG in HD, looks like we're gonna be in the same boat as last year and the year before that. The greedy moron that owns those networks will have to die before satellite gets the HD feeds. I heard rumors he may give it up to E* CI but that's not looking real good right now from what I can see...or CANT see.

Make that fan(s). Now you've found more than 1

Though it must be real tough for the devils who dont have a good home fanbase even, to find and keep out of market fans considering theyre not likely to ever see their teams in HD. Some fans who live in NJ can't even see them in HD if they dont have one of the couple of cable systems that carry them. That's really poor marketing by the team, nhl, the networks, etc. etc.

What really stinks about msg-hd is, that TWC in Buffalo is advertising they will have the home sabres games exclusively in HD. Thank god I have season tiks, because last years sd feed was lousy.

Go Sabres!!

Since it was already "paid" for, I spent the two hours of my time watching the John Cena action movie on Apple TV, "Matchbox The Movie" even though the reviews were brutal. It was better than I expected, so I didn't feel like I had wasted an afternoon watching it. But it felt like another "Reacher"/"Neghley"/"Mission: Impossible"/"Fast & Furious" crash and blow stuff up with lots of automatic gunfire mixed in movie featuring covert CIA operatives.

I don't think we'll get a follow-up movie from this. I expect Mattel will have other toy lines to exploit.

PISTONS and THUNDER are finally testing on the stream server. PISTONS is showing the Ion/Scripps Sports promo loop filler that their NHL and WNBA feeds have, THUNDER has a "You are watching Thunder+" slate

The Clippers still haven't officially announced their TV plans beyond 10 simulcasts on KTLA, but the NBA's FAQ for ClipperVision is now live. The CLIPPERS feed is currently showing a loop of their Hawaii preseason game.

The Heat still haven't announced their West Palm Beach or Fort Myers affiliates. Since WPLG is streaming the games for free via their app, I doubt we'll be seeing the return of WPLG on stream.

So far nothing testing for the Bucks, Magic, Hawks or Hornets.

West Palm Beach is getting it on WTCN-CD/43 MNT. Still nothing for Fort Myers

Also, the Thunder's deal for KSBI/52 OKC and KQCW/19 Tulsa will be via a special cable and DIRECTV only feed of those stations. OTA viewers and Dish customers will be limited to 10 games.

Yes the Cowboys owner needs to fire the general manager (himself), co-owner, Chief Operating Officer (COO), Executive Vice President, Director of Player Personnel, and President of AT&T Stadium (his son) and then he should jump off of a cliff. Only then can they recover.

Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson had an argument about who was responsible for the dynasty building of the early 90's Cowboys.

The rest of us figured it out in about 3 years, Jerry has had over 30 years but still can't admit it. It's all he lives for, to show everyone he can put together a winner. I don't think he can. His kids only know what he taught them.

On the West Coast, a 40-cent differential is common. It used to be 30 cents before the prices rose above $3.

A "full dollar more" sounds like it may be boat gas (non-alcoholic), which is a whole different discussion.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne

Get it?

An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

17 years ago the US turned off analog OTA signals in favor of digital broadcasting. Now the push is ATSC 3 "Nextgen TV". But nobody seems to be able to agree on DRM implementation protocols. People don't want to hook their TV up to the internet in order to watch over the air TV. At least I don't. With all the data they collect about your viewing habits the box should be given away at no cost.
