Marquee Sports Network continues to make positive strides as the season approaches, both by airing its second Cubs scrimmage and using the proper word to announce it. I’ve been calling them out for calling these contests “intersquad” scrimmages, so the correction does my petty little heart some good.
The much bigger and far more legitimate gripe among fans is that the channel can’t be consumed by Comcast subscribers. We’ve heard for several months now that a deal was close and would likely be consummated by Opening Day, but here we are just a little over a week away and still nothing.
