I don't understand why they have 3 Comcast SportsNets, but not the Philly one. So I won't be able to watch Flyers games. It's very frustrating. Did the FCC force Comcast to make the other 3 Comcast SportsNet channels available?
The comment about sharing NFL ST is moronic. The NFL likes it this way so it's exclusive, and they can get more money for it.
I contacted D* about this issue, and this was there response.

Thanks for asking about Comcast SportsNet. We would like to be able to offer this service to our customers. Unfortunately, despite our requests, Comcast Corporation (which owns the distribution rights for this regional sports network) won't allow us access to their broadcasts, so we can't broadcast Comcast Sports Net to our customers who in the Philadelphia area. We're sorry for any inconvenience.
If you'd like to register your opinion, you can do so by contacting the Pennsylvania Attorney General, your representatives in Congress or by contacting the FCC at:
Federal Communications Commission

Washington, DC 20054
(888) 225-5322 or (888) CALL FCC

I think they want us to complain to the PA Attorney General and the FCC for them.
