the crazy blackout rules. Why would Miami/Fla St be blacked out? Directv cant tell you why; they just tell you certain blackout rules apply....well what are the rules? Our cable company has ESPN on right now; why cant Directv? As I understand it, Dish is also blacked out right now. It is nuts. Several Saturdays ago my ESPN channel was blacked out and it was Mich States games. When I called Directv the customer service rep had no clue as to why that game would be blacked out in Mississippi. I am just thankful the MSU games have not been blacked out...at least so far they havent. Does anyone know what the "certain" rules are?
