SportsChannel Philadelphia was a regional sports network that served the Philadelphia area during the 90s. The network was owned by Cablevision along with its sister-netork PRISM and was part of SportsChannel America. Games from Philadelphia's sports teams were split between the two networks with the Phillies, Flyers, and 76ers appearing on both. In 1997, Comcast launched Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia, putting an end to both Cablevision owned Philadelphia sports networks.
