    The only thing I can think of is that you might be in the nationals blackout zone

              I can sort of relate

              I live in New Mexico and I get Diamondbacks and Rockies both blacked-out,
              both cities are 8 hours away

              My point:
              seems like they try to nail you for a big blackout area
              possibly multiple teams

              It is bullshit to me

                  I was born and raised in NM.. that is lame. You can most likely catch the rockies games on altitude.. not too sure about ARI..

                  Im in texas now.. Rangers and Astros get blacked out..

                    differrent packages... 120 is the one i have for the year




                    yea but when i signed up it said only yankees and mets would be blacked out..

                    side not if you do sign up, for the year it will automatically sign you up for the following year without a reminder or asking you... its in small print cause i forgot about it once the season was over until i get my bill in friggin feb and there is a 120 dollar charge on it... not even late march, they charged me when spring training started

                      Did you pay your cable bill? Try these atdhe.fm and myp2p.eu, no blackouts there.

                        It's based off the location of your IP address after performing a trace route. My bud lived in the bay area, but for some reason his Comcast traced to a location closer to the south and therefore, he was blacked out from all LA games.

                                          Perform a traceroute on your IP address and see where it THINKS you are located.

                                            Talking about mlb.tv on the internet.

                                            On DirectTV, you can get the Rockies.(Altitude, Altitude+, FSRM)
                                            On Comcast cable, you can get the Diamondbacks(Fox Sports Arizona)
                                            If you get one, the other gets blacked-out for the other sports market(including NBA and NHL)

                                            On the internet, they black you out for both.
