MLB blackout rules drive me nuts.

My favorite team is the NYY. but they play the O's a lot and I can't even watch the NY feed of the game; I'm forced to watch the O's feed. I like the announcers but now that I dropped Direct TV, I can't even get that, even though I buy the MLB package every year.

Seems like it would be in everyone's interest to have as many eyeballs on a game as they can get, especially ones that are willing to pay for it on top of any ad revenue they get. With all the cord cutting going on, I think they will probably address it or they won't have anyone left to watch.
