    The 2009-2010 College Basketball on Multi-Sports Pack Thread

    Last year, a few people noticed that the only WCC games where blackouts were applied were LMU games, including a game at UCLA that was blacked out. I wonder if blackouts are done via keyword at times and if "Loyola Marymount" was part of the title, it got that treatment.

    The 2009-2010 College Basketball on Multi-Sports Pack Thread

    The reason for the Big 12 - FSN blackouts are because those third-tier games are only supposed to be available within the states where the competing schools reside. So a K-State game should only be available in Kansas (KC market also gets them because it bleeds into Kansas). The games used to...

    ESPN - Black

    Are you guys sure it is fixed? Both 73 and 206 are showing a grey screen on my HR-21. I'm able to turn over to ESPN2 on both 72 and 209. I'm also able to see other MPEG-4 HD channels. I've reset my receiver. Any ideas?

    While that D* channel list shows it as available on 408 to Cleveland subs, it is not available.

    College football package?

    Nothing. The PAC-10 games aren't blacked out like the SEC games are.

    College football package?

    Used to be nice when those games were on FSN West 2. Thinking I can get them at my new home through ESPN360.

    College football package?

    The local ABC station will provide you several PAC-10 matchups throughout the year, mostly at 12:30pm and 5pm PT. As a general rule with the PAC-10 TV contract, a PAC-10 game on ABC must be carried to the entire conference footprint and that obviously includes the Bay Area. Versus will have...

    Dan Patrick Show coming to 101 Network

    He occupies that same timeslot on the national feed of Fox Sports Radio.

    Pac-10 hopes to launch its own TV network

    Actually it works quite well, but both conferences would need to coordinate scheduling of various sports. PAC-10 men's basketball is usually on a Thursday/Saturday rotation with some exceptions. Mondays - ACC women's sports Tuesdays - ACC men's basketball Wednesday - ACC/PAC-10 men's...

    Big Ten football championship game?

    I've heard differently, and I thought it came from JoePa's own mouth so I'll try to find the quote, that he'd rather play Pitt in a five game contract with three games in Happy Valley. Again, I'll try to find the quote, but JoePa also mentioned how it was necessarily to have seven home games in...

    Big Ten football championship game?

    Did Delany miss the WAC implosion? The WAC has only nine members and hasn't had 10+ since before the MWC breakaway. Using the WAC is a poor example. Their expansion was 1) Too big 2) Into areas they had no business going (OK and Texas). Stay w/UNLV and SJSU, you should be OK...

    Big Ten football championship game?

    ND is out there, but they still lack the AAU membership that the Big Ten seems to require. Pitt, Syracuse, Rutgers, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa St. - they all have the AAU designation. You know, the Big Ten already has a 12th member on the academic side in the University of Chicago, a former...

    Big Ten football championship game?

    One of the other things that JoePa also mentioned was how the Big Ten is essentially dormant after Thanksgiving. That is something the Big Ten has addressed though, allowing teams to move games post-Thanksgiving this year and the conference office will schedule after Thanksgiving starting next...

    Big Ten football championship game?

    My apologies. I did not see it there when I first read it. Still, I think it is overblown. Paterno's press conference been put on a ton of CFB related sites and fans immediately jump to 18 different realignment scenarios before they get to the part where JoePa talks about how little his...

    Big Ten football championship game?

    Bob forgot to quote the other part, or was too busy getting wrapped up in JoePa throwing Pitt a bone since he won't play them in a regular series, where JoePa admits no one in the Big Ten is listening to him. Penn State coach Joe Paterno calls for Big Ten expansion - ESPN

    Buffalo getting FSN-Prime Ticket coverage for Sabres/Ducks tonight

    There was a story on the Sabres website about this. In short, the team had no plans on televising the west coast road trip (because the MSG ratings are not good for the late night games) and gave Rick Jenneret a two week vacation, one thing he asked for to remain the voice of the Sabres. So...

    NHL-CI to NOT include MSG-HD due to contract disupte

    Jason, To be clear, folks who have DirecTV and reside in the Sabres, Islanders, Rangers and Devils territories should be unaffected, correct? They would be getting MSG HD and MSG Plus HD for these games as their RSN. Also, is MSG Plus HD part of the dispute?

    Updated DirecTV HD Locals Launch Schedule: November->March (And PBS Launches)

    PBS HD turned on for Cleveland WVIZ is now in HD on DirecTV. WVIZ's OTA digital signal is at a temporary facility which sends its signal to a very small area, so its nice that those of us without cable can finally see the channel.

    Patrick Kaleta - Buffalo Sabres

    Only one I know that needs his mancard revoked is Sean Avery, particularly after that piece on ESPN about his love of fashion. And IslandGuy is right. 11 points out of a possible 12, and two points taken from the Rangers.

    Browns' Winslow says he had staph infection

    This is a real problem. This is the sixth one in the past three years and I think the third infection-related issue this year. Edwards had one in the preseason and Joe Jurevicius is still out because of staph. The Browns had Cleveland Clinic personnel at the facility in Berea a couple years...

    The Blackout in Buffalo

    The game was broadcast in Buffalo. My father had no problem giving TW the finger and putting up an antenna to view the game in HD. I also have a cousin who works in ad sales for WIVB, specifically website advertisements. The station is catching a lot of flack too. Both sides are at fault...
