AT&T UVerse carries Comcast Sportsnet Bay Area (CSNBA) throughout Northern California.

Home of the Giants.

But you have to buy UVerse 200 service to get it, NO exceptions. $125 with taxes and fees per month.

It’s the only reason I have a TV and Cable TV service.

I want to buy my favorite team ala carte. MLB is a monopoly, and a Congressionally Certified monopoly at that. Cant fight that.

The rights to carry the games (at least 150 per year) cost at least $500mil for the secondary carrier.

CSNBA probably pays the Giants and MLB at least $5bil for a 5 year right.
