Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

MLB>TV

    Does anyone out there subscribe to MLB.TV?  I subscribed to watch the Amazin' A's, b/c I live in North Carolina and there aren't any live broadcasts here unless Oakland makes the playoffs or ESPN. The problem is that b/c I live in the Baltimore "area" (I'm 400+ miles away), The Orioles are blacked out, therefore, I can't see the A's.
    I was wondering if anyoneout west has an MLB.TV account so we could trade off username and passwords. That way I can still watch the A's when they are over here, and you can see the A's if they are at home, but the game isn't televised to you.
   I called MLB and all they could do is tell me there was nothing they could do. I thought about cancelling altogether, but then I would never see an A's game, as there are none scheduled for ESPN this year.
   At 4:40 (my time) the A's are up 2-1 over the O's and Swisher is out. Gameday says ankle injury, ESPN says hamstring. Which one is it?

I thought about this earlier.

I live in Idaho, and can watch any of the games except the ones against the Mariners. If we kept it quiet (like, by not having a diary about it...), we could have a master list of accounts to choose from when games against teams in our individual markets are being played.
Or we could just go down to the local pub to watch.

its done by IP Address, not Billing Address.

You just need to use a proxy. Someone will come by to explain it shortly.
