Astros Statement Regarding Network
The Houston Astros released the following statement this evening regarding the network:
Comcast has improperly filed an involuntary bankruptcy petition in an attempt to prevent the Astros from terminating the Media Rights Agreement between the Astros and Houston Regional Sports Network. HRSN failed to pay the Astros media rights fees in July, August and September, and we have invested additional money in order to keep the network viable through our season.
Despite not receiving our media rights fees, our objective has not changed. We will continue to work toward obtaining full carriage so that all of our fans are able to watch the Astros games while making sure that the Astros are able to compete for championships.

Everybody Reads Raymond 
What a mess! The Astros’ fans are really suffering now. Three seasons well over 100+ losses and now we can’t even see them. The only time we’ve seen them in the Austin market this year is when the Rangers play them or when MLB Network might cut over for a few minutes.

This is insulting. I am disappointed in Reid Ryan for allowing this bs to continue and, in fact, worsen.
