Preseason Football on RSN's--Blacked Out?

Are they still blacking out out-of-market preseason football on RSN's, or is it just my DirecTivo?

(I pay for the Sports package).

I used to watch Ravens preseason ball on C/Ku band wildfeeds, but since they are on Comcast now, there were never any feeds last year. With 2 of the games being against NY teams this year, even visiting team feeds will probably be hard to find, since NY teams seem to use fiber.

I thought about posting this as an alert, because of course Tivo is going to try to record them if you have a wishlist, and you might end up with black screen.

Seems pretty stupid anyway, even baseball stopped blacking out preseason games on RSN's a couple years ago I think.

Wow, hot topic with 20 views and all. Obviously I could fird a better forum for the post . . . but I'm too lazy.

Well, in any case, the first Ravens preseason game on CSN was not blacked out out-of-market. But last nights was blacked out.

So I guess somebody was asleep the first week.

They did replay it in the middle of the night, and I set it to record, but I accidentally deleted it this morning thinking it was last nights partial recording that I stopped early.

Does anybody know if the replay was blacked out on this or other RSN preseason games?
