I checked Dish's listing for the Wyoming vs Hawai'i game on Root Rocky Mountain, Channel 414, and is shows the game as blacked out in my area. WTF? Has any other Dish subscribers seen the same thing? I'm pissed because I pay extra for Dish's Multi-sports Pack just so I can get Wyoming games.

That's great if it is, but I want to DVR the game so I can watch it Sunday morning instead of staying up to 3 am to watch the game live.kdwrightuwyo wrote:Online?

I live in Northern Virginia. I'm wondering if Dish is restricting coverage to the MWC footprint.Wyo2dal wrote:Blacked out in what area?The Virginian wrote:I checked Dish's listing for the Wyoming vs Hawai'i game on Root Rocky Mountain, Channel 414, and is shows the game as blacked out in my area.

If it were me, I would raise holy hell with the Dish people. There is no excuse for blacking it out on the East Coast.The Virginian wrote:I live in Northern Virginia.

You can tell how big a person is by what it takes to discourage him/her.

I raised the issue with Dish's customer service last night and was told it's not them that determines blacked out areas. They said it was Root's decision. I contacted Root by email but have not gotten a response.WYCowboy wrote:If it were me, I would raise holy hell with the Dish people.

I don't have Dish but they are not playing the Pokes game here in Corvallis, they are playing a replay of a Big Sky game. UC-Davis vs. Montana State. Just as I feared they would.
What a joke.
What a joke.
If you ever need to laugh, just remember there was some idiot who wanted Bohl fired after 2 seasons.

MW site says the game isn't available in my area since Root Sports NW is supposed to be broadcasting it.. however, Root Sports is showing high school football. I'm just tickled right now.

You can get it on the MW site because you don't live in the Root Sports broadcast area.. those of us getting Root Sports NW aren't getting the game.
