Sorry for bumping.. Just wanted to make sure I understand correctly. With the NBA Broadband pass, if you live in Utah, all Jazz games will be blacked out because they're accessible on Fox Sports?
How is League Pass Broadband?

I think write4u would be down with that idea.

Does anyone outside of the Jazz broadcast area subscribe to Fox Sports Utah or Midwest? I'm leaning toward the League Pass broadband because the last time that Fox Sports was in our cable package they never had Jazz games on (sometimes they'd show summer league, but never regular season). I'm in Pittsburgh, so having to wait until the next day doesn't bother me too much since with the time difference that's what I would do if I recorded it from TV any way. I'm not sure what team(s), if any, will be blacked out in my area, and while I could care less that I don't get to see their games, I don't want to miss when the Jazz are on the road against them!
And thanks for the info about multiple people being able to log in at the same time, I'm sure we'll take advantage of that option if we get league pass.

The Fox Sports Rocky Mountain and Fox Sports Utah will be blacked out once the game starts during the regular season unless you live within the Utah area. Other wise if they didn't I'm sure more people would sign up for the FSN packages instead of League Pass, or the other sports like NFL, MLB, MLS etc..

Thanks so much for making Fox Sports more clear! My husband was leaning toward that one since Salt Lake has a MLS team. Now we'll just have to decide the other 6 teams for the broadband package.
I'm not sure this is true. Two years back when we were getting mysteriously blacked out on League Pass, we ended up cancelling League Pass and switching to the above. Even though we live in Northern Idaho, we got all the Jazz games, no black outs. I have no idea what the "Utah area" includes; maybe it includes N. Idaho?

I am almost positive the games are blacked out in the Utah area. Can anyone here that's had League Pass confirm this? I'm gonna purchase it anyway, I just want to know if I should pick Utah as one of my teams, or would it be a wasted pick.

I don't have league pass but from hearing others I believe your right as far as if your local (Utah) and have league pass it will black out and make you watch it on the FSN feed.
As an example years ago (S&M days) my dad had Dish Network and got the FSN package to watch the Jazz cause not all game where televised even locally so he thought he would watch the other teams feed but sure enough you be watching some show "Best Damn Sports Show" as example and as soon as game started nothing.
Can't speak for the boundaries on who gets what however.

For those that might be interested I will be getting TV Package + Broadband this year as well, so I will be offering my broadband access to Jazz Fanz, like I did in the past.
I tried to pre-order it through TWC today and even that they quoted me for early bird special of $169 they couldn't put it in system "yet", so I will have to give them a call just before season starts.
So if you're interested PM me...
My NBA League Pass TV Companion is up and running, if someone is interested in purchasing it and save that way instead of buying it directly through nba.com, just pm me and I'll let you know the price I'm looking for.

I've had a great experience so far with my broadband LP. The only thing I don't like is sometimes you can see the scores on an archived game before you even que it up to watch and that is very frustrating. Other than that it's crystal clear, smooth and very worth the money.
