FOR LOCAL MARKETS

Seriously, what's the point of showing it on Sunday?

The Fins/Titans game was on Saturday and they used the excuse that the NCAA had restrictions on what football can be shown on Saturday.

Well this is a Friday and they are tape delaying it. I know DTV has the ability to pickup the feed. I know the NFL Network does too.

This is a disservice to all the fans outside the KC area.

Will KOAM recieve the live feed?

Reerun_KC 10-20-2005 12:29 PM

K I am on the phone with them agian.

this is a national disaster....

Anyone have a customer service number for Direct TV?

I expect a pro-rated refund. The representative I spoke with told me that all games that weren't locally broadcast would be available.

I agree with you but they'll give you the bullshit excuse that they did show the game on ST at the originally scheduled time, so you didn't miss out on the game, you just didn't get to see it live (not realizing that for true fans, missing it live means missing it altogether).

It's been pretty apparent that Directv looks at their Sunday Ticket subscribers as a loyal source of income and will stop at nothing to extract every penny they can out of them. Plus, they overpaid to keep ST exclusive, so instead of taking a financial hit each ST subscriber takes a hit when they push the price through the roof.
