Comcast is effectively creating a boycott for their advertizers...if they do
not get a bigger audeience the ratings will kill the ratings set ad prices.
Real quick they will be losing their shirt on the Blazers deal...

"kind of".... now there is an understatement... =(

The league has informed the Blazers
that Wallace and the team will be fined the next
time Wallace ignores his responsibilities
to speak to members of the media.
Wallace was unavailable to comment. >> Stay informed about: article on the comcast |

Ok, so here is the real question, how does a guy like me know who is
advertising on Comcast, since I don't have Comcast?
I would not hesitate for a moment to let a company know I wont be using
their services/products etc because of them supporting this monopoly.

I'm going to lobby Comcast to start running Blazers games in the
Seattle-Tacoma metro area since our local team is being hijacked to
