WGN fully dropped the Cubs from national broadcasts?

There goes 3/4 of the fanbase.

Too bad so sad.

I think WGN gets better ratings on the national channel with non-baseball programming believe it or not. I also believe the Cubs make more money with their local RSN deal with Comcast than it did with WGN national.

Even though the Braves and Cubs had national following via cable people prefer to watch their local baseball teams over the cubs and braves. I know for people who live far away from a local team get screwed from following a team, but almost everyone via cable has access to the closest baseball team's regional sports network and via ESPN, Fox and the MLB network and the MLB.tv deal and buying mlb packages which make more money via Comcast and satellite.

So if you want to watch every Cubs game you still can but it will cost you more.

Are you saying Astros games aren't?

Are you that oblivious to almost no one getting Astros games on TV?

Tell me about it, Vick.

Is this today's Cubs thread?

Montero bomb

You googled the Astros TV sitch yet?

Yap

The TV deal has you guys comfy

I've got DirecTV and they've been on WGN maybe once or twice IIRC. I've watched them more on stations I didn't even realize I got. I've mostly been blacked out from watching them.
