MLB Territories Map/Blackout Rules
« on: April 05, 2006, 02:39:39 pm »
 This map shows which MLB teams claim each area.  It also shows overlaps.  Also,  here is some detail about blackout rules.  I figured somebody could use this information.

Innuresting.  6 teams claim Iowa!  Who knew they were in such demand?

Edit:  Vegas too.

What about Alaska and Hawaii?  Just curious.
Oh God, I wish I was a loofah!

Interesting.  A little out of date as the Nats are not included.
Goin' for a bus ride.

This was what fueled much of Craig the Bastard's comedic rage.  Since leaving Las Vegas (ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo), he's not anywhere near as funny.

Well, I just found out that I'm blacked out here by the Astros. (And Rangers, Cards, and Royals). Which will be OK as long as I get a local broadcast. Last night's game was picked up by the fucking PAX station in Little Rock. But when I start missing Astros games because I'm blacked out in Arkansas, the rage, comedic or not, will begin anew.

Hopefully not tonight though.

If you look at the schedule on Astros.com, all of the games that are FSN will be available on EI or whatever (here in Dallas they are on the RSN ... or it looks like the all new Fox Sports Houston ... as part of my basic package on DTV). If they are KNWS, then you are at the mercy of PAX (or for me, I have to resort to MLB.TV) or else you're fucked. Saturday afternoon you are generally going to be fucked.
Oye. Vamos, vamos.

I will start campaigning with your local stations to black you out.  You'll be in a bizarre, NC-17 rated version of The Truman Show.  Your every move will be scripted for our enjoyment.

That could get ugly real fast. I have two acres, a case of shotgun shells, and bright red cardinals flying all over the place. I think you can see where blackouts might lead. Hell, when we're playing the 3rdinals, it might lead there anyway.
