Any Dish subscribers on here?

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.

I know! :rofl: :popcorn:
 
If you have Cell service and unlimited data, Tether your phone to your Computer Cell service isn't going to have the same local location that your ISP has might be able to get around it that way.
 
I'm getting told that the MW stream isn't available in my area. I live in fucking Alaska. How anyone can claim I'm in a blackout zone for this game is beyond me.
 
I get root rm, I pay for the sports pack on DTV specifically for this reason. I'm getting blacked out of a game that is literally taking place 3000 miles and half an ocean away.

Is it blacked out or do you guys just not have root rocky Mtn?

Those of us in Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and Northern CA are getting Root NW if you're on Charter or whomever local cable is.
 
I have dish with multi sports pack here in oklahoma city... I'm pissed off. I was watching root channel 412 earlier today and now its off for the game.
 
Please post if anyone gets a response as to why this was blacked out, seemingly, nationwide. Thanks.
 
This is what I have so far:

Hi Brad,

Thanks for your email. The Wyoming at Hawaii game was only scheduled on ROOT SPORTS Rocky Mountain, not ROOT SPORTS Northwest. Let us know if you have any other questions.



Regards,

ROOT SPORTS Team

The Mountain West website said it was being carried by Root Rocky Mtn, Root Northwest, and Oceanic TWC. This is why those of us in Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and Northern CA couldn't stream the game from the Mountain West website. I should have taken a screenshot from the Mountain West website when we were on the streaming site. At the end of the day, the MW and Root Sports weren't on the same page and a lot of people who thought they were getting the game were treated to some high school football and a replay of Montana State.

Brad,

For future reference, please check the ROOT SPORTS website at rootsports.com and select Northwest for the most accurate information.

And looking ahead, the 10/25 Wyoming at Colorado State game will also only be carried live on ROOT SPORTS RM. Both the Wyoming and MW websites just show ROOT Sports on their schedules.



Regards,

ROOT SPORTS team
 
My main concern is that this doesn't continue to be a problem into the second half of the season or into bball season.
 
Email Root Sports and tell 'em about it. I went to their website and submitted a ticket to them. Ask them why they're blacking out Dish customers.
 
Why anyone in our footprint (and a Wyoming / MWC fan) is a Dish subscriber, is beyond me. Start there.

This. I switched over from dish to get The Mtn. a few years ago and have been very happy.

I have had zero disappointments with directv

Saturday night was my first one. I can't for the life of me figure out why that game would have been blacked out where I live.
