It's cause I called the technical difficulties number. They get you in faster... as you just press zero to talk to a representative.

In a way.... however I am going to turn off my T.V. and computer tomorrow and not read the newspapers and not listen to the Radio. I might have to pitch a tent and go in the backyard to pretend I'm camping with no means of getting the score to the game.... so by the time Sunday comes around my weekend will be normal as usual. :)

If you live locally... yes.
Not for the out-of-state fans. Unless u reside in the shit-slumps of Florida.... and ChiefsKing is from there... so i don't care if they get to watch it or not.

If the game doesn't get broadcasted on Friday night, just wait until Sunday to watch it. Don't read the paper, don't listen to the news, don't log on to chiefsplanet. Show some restraint! :)

Direct TV customer service named Lynn just told me that I will get the game live Friday night. She read back my zip code in Southern Iowa and she assured me that it will be on NATIONALLY. She said they've been getting bombarded with lots of inquiries about this game. I question'd her like mad and she reassured me the game was going to be live on Friday night NATIONALLY.....sweet

I'm calling them back. I guess I'm doing my own survey. The lady i'm on with now named Alexis, is telling me a different story. But the first lady I spoke with Lynn also put me on hold TWICE too. Now Alexis has put me on hold TWICE too. I'm on hold as i type this................................................................................................ ..................................................ah, here we go.

ALexis tells me something different than Lynn. Go fricken figure.

Score. I threatened to cancel without the Chiefs. The Chiefs and the Chiefs alone is why I have the thing. The contract is between you and the NFL, that is not my problem.

Free Superfan for the rest of the year to keep me from quiting.

Get on em people. The NFL fuggin blows as well, after this year, I seriously will rethink how much of my time and money they get from me. Not that they give ashit, obviously.
