How much extra would you be willing to pay each month to watch Dodgers games on TV?

Zero. There are plenty of other baseball games on other networks, such as ESPN and MLB. Better yet, you can listen to the best broadcaster, Vin Scully, on radio instead.

Zero. Generally with a startup, you rarely have time for TV. Also, baseball is just very boring compared with American football or soccer or basketball. I like the fast games, I guess. USC football I watch with a passion.

I already pay well over $100 for DirecTV every month. I could probably deal with a small increase of $10 or $20 more. But if it’s Memorial Day, and I don’t have SportsNet LA yet, then I may panic and switch to Time Warner Cable. It’s bad enough that I don’t get the Pac-12 Network and need to watch those USC football games outside of my home.

I don’t follow baseball, so
I guess I wouldn’t pay
anything.

The whole idea of paying for a Dodgers game doesn’t appeal to me, but I do love the Dodgers so I would pay the $10 if I had to. If it were $20, I can read about the game in the paper.
