http://www.fcc.gov/mb/significantviewedstations022509.pdf Are cable companies required to carry every station listed for each county? I ask because Charter doesn't carry one that is listed for my county. If they're supposed to be to carrying it, should I contact Charter or the station...

I was hoping Comcast or someone else would buy Charter, but I've come to the realization that, as bad as Charter is, some other cable company would be just as bad, if not worse than Charter. Better the devil you know.

No. The players on the Super Bowl teams won't be allowed to play even if they wanted to.

I disagree. The cable companies cut off analog channels and don't lower the cable bill, while requiring the customer to pay for a digital cable box to view the channels that were just taken away from analog cable. I would call that robbery.

Everybody who is willing to pay a digital cable box rental fee to their cable company. Because, in my opinion, it's a virtual certainty that it won't be on analog expanded basic cable like ESPN is. Therefore, the cable co. will charge for the cable box in order for viewers to receive the...

It seems to me that there's some illegality about MLB preventing the Tribune Co. from selling the Cubs to exactly whom they want to.

I've read that FS Tennessee is going to have local Tennessee-related sports programming, so it's going to be a full-time channel at some point. It doesn't make sense to create a new channel and just have it part-time.

FSN South has created an FSN Tennessee, as with FSN Carolinas it's a rebranding in name only at the moment. It is referred to that way during Predators games and will be during Grizzlies games. I hope soon it becomes identified as FSN Tennessee all the time, not just during games. Also, I...

The Houston/Tennessee Oilers were bad for a while, but when they became the Titans in 1999, they went to the Super Bowl. So to answer the topic question....yes....yes, I do. :cool:

I don't think FSN cutting out national programming would be a big deal. RSNs did fine without it before FOX bought them all. All it means is they'll have to produce more local programming specific to the network, which is what I want to happen.

I like most of FSN's current national shows. Even "The Best Damn Sports Show Period" has been watchable lately. At the very least, they should at least stop rerunning shows of which they no longer make new ones. "Beyond the Glory", for example.

The Memphis Grizzlies and Nashville Predators get treated like crap by FSN South, or FS South as the on-screen graphic now says. The Grizzlies get a pre-game show and that's it, no post-game show or other team-related programming. The Predators only get a post-game show, no pre-game. But they...

I thought the Jets didn't get a Manhattan stadium because it was going to be the Olympic Stadium and New York lost out on the 2012 Games.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Marko Jaric's fiance is Victoria's Secret model Adriana Lima. I don't have a picture to post, but search the internets, they're not hard to find.

That depends on what you call "third tier". Raycom is going to broadcast Alabama-Birmingham vs. Tennessee. Since I'm a Tennessee fan and want to watch it, I don't consider it "third tier". If that game were on ESPNU next season it would be bad because I don't have access to that channel like I...
