What network is the game on?

[Terry Glenn is a cowgirl]

I can't find it on my dish...

Faux is showing the same game on both channels.

I'm gonna break something if I can't see it.

Should easily be the game of the week imo...

What time is it? the afternoon?

 

[DynastyDriven]

Its on FOX @ 4:15

NFC visiting AFC is always on Fox ans vice versa for CBS

Who gives a flying elvis about a game in England?

BFD...

On Direct TV, they are showing the same game (Fins). At least it says that on both of the Faux channels.

Here in SanDiego we get no Fox game. SUCKS!

You'd think CBS and Fox would want to do it the other way around.

This seems backwards, since I'd assume CBS would have some kind of ongoing infrastructure (hotels, car service, etc.) set up in AFC cities during the season, and vice versa for Fox.

Guess I have to go to a sports bar.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRR...

This game better be the game of the week. Either way I guess i'm lucky they are showing it overseas on AFN. I knew despite the commercials this AFN thing would be worth it. I just wish I could have a beer during the game. Damn it's dry over here. Go PATS

The Dolphins game is at 1:00 though

Yeah, Dolphins-Giants isn't the issue. I live in NY state and I'm getting the Pats game.

The handy-dandy distribution map tells us that unless you live in the NYC area, northern-central California and northern Nevada, or the New Orleans area you get the Pats game.

Said map can be found here: http://www.the506.com/nflmaps/2007-08-FOX2.html

*edit* and the Tampa Bay area doesn't get the game, but they don't really count.

Are you serious? NYC does not get the game on fox? This blows!

NYC gets the 4pm Jets game on CBS. Fox apparently isn't allowed to show a competing game with the Jets playing at home. SD and Tampa also host 4pm CBS games and are blacked out of Fox. I guess it's part of the TV deal, to make sure fans are buying tickets to the home games rather than staying home to watch Pats/Skins.

You know, because the Meadowlands won't be sold out anyway. And because Pats fans would buy tickets if unable to watch NE and Jets fans wouldn't in preference of staying home to watch the Pats.

True, but after that game, no other games are shown.

I get Direct TV, so, I get channels from LA and NYC.

So, yeah... I'm getting the shaft.

Sports bar it is.

Sunuva...

I hear the frustration in your collective voices, and feel your pain(s), as I too was once you guys, when I lived on Long Island, I had to undure the Jets/Giants and only get the Pats by going onto my roof, and jimming a set of rabbit ears to pick up some very bad reception from across the LI sound. Once in Georgia, I got the Jaguars games.....


All this angst ended two years ago with the NFL Sunday ticket, it is absolutely the greatest thing, EVER!!!

No wondering about if you can see the game, Plus I'll get to check in on our San Fran pick duing commericals of the Pats game, I can watch 8 of the 1pm game at once if I want. It is worth every penny, and even if you have seretipiously fall a few trees in your neighbors yard, is worth it.
