I've been living in a baseball nightmare for the last two years. Used to have DTV and watched my pathetic Orioles all the time. Moved to a new house with lots of trees. Next thing I know, I am stuck with TWC and no MASN. I have been following the whole MASN/TWC debacle for a couple of years now. We have been waiting on the full FCC commission to make a ruling since December 2008(this is after TWC lost 2 previous rulings). I was really pissed that I would have another season without the Orioles. But now that they are something like 17-50 on the year, I have realized it was a blessing in disguise. Lol.

I really don't care who wins the MASN/TWC battle. I just want it to end. I'm willing to spend 100s of dollars a year to watch my team, but nobody wants my money. Blast the people at TWC and blast the FCC(would prefer to use a different word than blast to describe my true feelings)

Agreed. It's really insane. I'd watch the O's and Nats on MASN if they would get it because even though I'm a Yankee fan, I'm a baseball fan. Let's hope they come to their senses.

If TWC starts carrying MASN that means I'll be able to watch the Braves games when they play the Nats!
