That’s right, we’re one step closer to the Nats games being broadcast on cable here in the DC area. Of course, it’s really a shame that satanic flames didn’t just engulf the entire proceedings today, since that’s the only way any of us actually get to “win” out of a fight between Peter Angelos and Comcast. The Orioles think that this means that Comcast will start to pick up MASN broadcasts, now, but I think it’s more likely that they’ll have to be dragged back to court before the games get seen on any Comcast boxes.
Of course, this is one of the drawbacks of a persistent monopoly. Thankfully I opted out of that horrible choice in 2002.
