Mariners baseball will be on TV in Central Oregon. After the team ended its contract with FanDuel Sports Network, a new agreement allows TDS TV+ to carry Mariners games locally on Cable Channel 243. Mariners.TV launches as the season begins.
NFL:
For the first time in more than a decade the season will start on a Wednesday. The league announced the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks will kickoff Week 1 on September 9th. The change from the usual Thursday kickoff game is due to the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams playing in Australia that day. The last time the NFL opened on a Wednesday was in 2012. The Seahawks' opponent will be announced later this spring.
