Incorrect sports blackouts? Post them here...

Found the local listing: the game was on in your area via Comcast/Charter Sports Southeast; so likely they presented the game exclusive in your area and there is probably NOTHING DBS can do about it.. CSNE was blackout because they are not YOUR area's RSN and they yielded to the other entity in your area. Blackout is a dirty, dirty business perpetuated by the LEAGUES, pro and NCAA, NOT the DBS provider.

Comcast/Charter Sports Southeast-new

Comcast/Charter SouthEast Sports

The end result is this is 99.9% likely NOT an incorrect blackout; but a CSSSports Exclusive.

Yeah, CSS (Charter Sports Southeast) is the local cable-only sports channel.
Most of their broadcasts aren't available on any the RSN's.

I know I've watched some of those few that have aired on both CSS and the RSN's. This is the first time I've experienced a blackout.

Something tells me the NCAA isn't heavily involved in blacking out a baseball game in Statesboro, Ga. that 2,000 people attended.

In Northern Indiana, the Reds, Tigers, Sox, and Cubs are all blacked out. Which is fine if you are a fan of the cubs/sox because the TV market is available to you. However for my team the Tigers, you cannot get Fox Sports Detroit and if you order the baseball package you are in the blackout zone!!!

Sparty - you should be able to get it with the Sports Pack if you are in the home teritory.

Check your zip code on this DirecTV page:

If should say you need either Extra pack or Sports pack.

If you just want the Tigers, the extra innings package is NOT for you.
