I was confused by all the people at the Chronicle talking about how CSN's local content shows will be missed.

I wondered if people still used TV as a medium for that information. That would shocking to me in 2014. There are SO many good blogs and fansites to get ALL of that info at one's convenience.

Not the best "debut" game but after two years I'm still ecstatic.

Got excited to turn it on, but it's blacked out in Austin - at least on uverse. Such a letdown.

Great to be able to catch a little bit of the game when the kids go down to bed. Maybe I'll start being an Astro fan again.

Is it blacked out for all Rockets games? I didn't check earlier in the week, and last night was blacked out because the game was on ESPN (or I thought that was why). I get all kinds of Houston sports shows on that channel when the Rockets aren't playing.

I thought this channel would come with the DTV basic package...I have entertainment and am not getting it.

I only have basic besides the extra sports package that's only like five or ten dollars a month. It's well worth it.

What I do miss is CSNs local high school coverage and daily sportscenter type show. The production was on par with espn imo

No Root on Suddenlink. As usual, Kingwood gets the shaft.

The production value of CSN was on par with espn. They had great local content, which is pretty much all I care about. It's a real shame things had to go down this way.

I'm so conditioned to not having access to our games that I forget I can watch them now.

You know you don't have to have Suddenlink in Kingwood.

Those two years with no Astros/Rockets were terrible for me. I don't watch very much tv besides Houston pro sports and the Aggies.

And apparently those of us in Austin still can't watch them.

Yes it's been a bit confusing, the channel is listed and even the broadcast notes for games show Root Sports SW as the TV Carrier, but all have been blacked out to this point.

I wonder if they are only releasing to the 75ish mile Houston radius? That would be frustrating.

You can thank the Spurs for the Austin blackouts of the Rockets on Root and the Mavericks on FSW as Austin is considered part of the Spurs home market.

Root Sports ****ing sucks outside of the game broadcast. Nothing but infomercials all day

Other content would be nice, but ultimately seeing the games is what is important.
