Comcast refusing to let fans watch their teams is absurd, especially given the fact that Comcast owns part of the Sixers and Flyers. Also, while I understand that Sunday Ticket is not the same issue, I think that DirecTV should also be forced to give up that monopoly as well. Displaced fans may wish to watch their favorite teams from afar, and this may not be possible, as DirecTV is not available in many parts of the county and is not affordable to some consumers where it is offered. Both monopolies should be ended. I hope that the FCC wins the battle in court.
