RONDO IS UP, YOU HAVE TIL 2:10 TO MAKE YOUR PICK

[Lucky17]

Re: my last pick:

If Champ has exclusive rights to TV, I will need to find a way to watch sporting events in my bar, and streaming them via the internet allows me to follow my Celtics and Pats on gamedays. I'll also stream other programming during the daylight hours (TV, movies, archived games) according to patrons' requests.

Internet access also grants me access to a full iTunes library, for music during the day, when the house band isn't playing. I'm no slavedriver.

Also, I believe in free wi-fi access. I want it in my bar, and I wasn't going to let someone else scoop the pick from me.

The big question:  is this legal?  For instance, can bar owners' steam NBA League Pass Broadband?

Hold on. I can actually retrieve this information.

Love the Jack White/White Stripes pick. That's definitely something I think of when I think "bar band."

Are Neil Young and Tom Waits playing the same establishment? Man, there's going to be a lot of drinking going on in there.

well, derrrr....it's the Lampshade Lounge

I'd be inclined to believe that it is not legal.

Id have a hard time believing if a bar can show league pass games on TV they can't show them streaming.  It's like when MLB was considering sueing slingbox and then realized they would lose

I work for Comcast Business, a big part of that is servicing bars.

There's all sorts of weird legal restrictions such as these.

I go to bars out here in Chicago that broadcast ESPN3 and broadband stuff like NCAA hockey.

I'm inclined to believe its perfectly fine.

I do know that bars pay a SEVERE premium if they want to show Pay Per View fights, though.  Its not the $49.95 you pay at home.
