2. Fingers crossed this is the end of ROOT. Free the Blazers and Mariners!

3. Oh please dear god PLEASE

4. WOOOOOOO fuck root sports. Always & forever. RSNs in general have been pretty bad but Root was the epitome of shitty ass, basic programming with no frills & the deal with Blazers was purely about money (for both sides) & had nothing to do whatsoever with trying to serve fans.

   Blazers DO own some of the responsibility, but thankfully McGowan’s LA mindset is gone & hopefully this is the last RSN we ever deal with.

   Fuck root sports.

5. Doesn’t their tv deal expire next year? This could be big

6. I would love to be able to watch the games. I know that’s a big ask

7. I’m Australian and watching the blazers is waaaay too hard atm

8. How were they able to get out of the contract? Everything I’ve seen so far is that blazers would but they’re stuck until the contract ends. Wonder if things are changing behind the scenes??

9. Good. Root sports is ass.

10. Root is run by a bag of dicks. Hopefully get a new contract with another network just in time to watch Scoot and Shae go off next year.

11. Sidebar, but we need rules about having the title of tweets being the actual content of the tweet instead of vague commentary
