    Hey last week I had all the Fox sports channels, a bunch of NBA games, etc etc...

    Now they aren't working...

    Yeah I think it was a freebie week for some stuff.

    Call and add the Sports Pack - it's super cheap - and you'll get all those Fox channels, etc back.

    If I get the Sports Package, are the NBA games still on there or are they blacked out?

    A lot are still blacked out. If you want all the games, you have to s out for League Pass. It's worth it though and they should give you a cut rate for the 1/2 season.

    they should only be blacked out if you are within a 100 miles of either of the teams playing so only Spurs games should be blacked out

    3-4 games a night? Were you watching Fox or the League Pass channels?

    Here's the channels you get with the Sports Pack

    Al ude Sports & Entertainment
    Comcast SportsNet (Chicago)
    Comcast SportsNet (Mid-Atlantic)
    Comcast SportsNet (West)
    FSN ARIZONA
    FSN BAY AREA
    FSN CINCINNATI
    FSN DETROIT
    FSN FLORIDA
    FSN MIDWEST
    FSN NEW ENGLAND
    FSN NEW YORK
    FSN NORTH
    FSN NORTHWEST

    FSN SOUTHWEST
    FSN WEST

    Here's the blackout rules:

    NATIONAL RIGHTS

    If a national broadcasting service such as ABC, NBC, CBS or FOX has the national rights to broadcast an NBA, NHL or Major League Baseball® game, customers may or may not be able to receive that game through their DIRECTV subscription(s), depending on the local market in which they live. If a service that DIRECTV carries — such as ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, TBS or USA — has the national rights to broadcast a game, subscribers will be able to receive it through their TOTAL CHOICE®, TOTAL CHOICE® PLUS, TOTAL CHOICE® PREMIER or SPORTS Pack subscription, although some of these games are also subject to blackouts. Regional sports networks do not obtain national broadcast rights to professional sports.




    LOCAL RIGHTS

    If a local off-air broadcast channel (not ABC, NBC, CBS or FOX) or local cable system has the rights to broadcast a pro game in a certain region, customers in that area will be unable to receive that game through their DIRECTV® subscription(s). If a regional sports network that DIRECTV carries has the local rights to broadcast a game, customers within the region can receive that game through any DIRECTV® TOTAL CHOICE® or SPORTS Pack subscription, which includes customers' in-market regional sports network(s). Customers outside of the region will receive that game through the appropriate out-of-market pro sports subscription.
    whatever that means
