They say it's out of their control.....they don't dictate where it's blacked out.  Has something to do with who has the rights or some crap like that.

If it is blacked out on Gameplan in a specific area, then ESPN3 blacks it out, too.  They want folks to buy the PPV.

You should be ok in Atlanta.  Granny lives in North Georgia.  Totally different area and different cable providers.  Besides, her cable company doesn't even offer ESPN3, according to what she said. 

When are you moving?

Yes I did....I'll probably find it somewhere on the internet -- I've had luck in the past on Justintv....so maybe I can see it there.

Yes you will probably get it in Atlanta...my cable company is small and local (Ellijay Telephone Company) and it's servce territory happens to cross over into some areas of SE Tennessee -- wonderful customer service, but lacking sometimes in this area for sure.   Irritating....but to change my cable tv to satellite and keep the cable internet (can't get fast enough dsl up here for work) is way too expensive....so for now I'm kind of stuck where I am.

You didn't read the fine print.

All SEC games will be televised (except the school gets to keep the rights to one game a year for PPV where they keep all the money).

House is on the market as of today.  Sucks after 43 years growing up in E. Tenn., but I do love my job and it's a good time to have one.

So she shouldn't miss any other games.  PPV is overpriced anyway, IMO.
