Why I hate Fox Chicago

sonichart · Sep 21, 2003

I know the Bears have the week off,.. but,.. is an ACNE commercial REALLY that much better than football?? Are you gonna make an extra couple million for that shit?

Do you not understand there are football fans who want an option over the Colts/Jags game?? Hey I know,.. how about a central division game like ohhh Vikings and Lions?? MAYBE???

I guess I'll stack this one on the same shelf as the non-existant HDTV broadcasts for sporting events.

Thank god CBS has the superbowl this year.

Needed to vent, sorry

By contract Fox and CBS alternate who gets to show a doubleheader. Its CBS's turn this week.
Fox in Chicago can only show 1 game today.
I'm guessing they skipped the noon games knowing that Favre and the Packers would get the highest ratings later

yeah, that sounds about right,.. but they still dont show the football games in HD.

Get with the program Fox (no pun intended blah)

us Raider fans in the Bay are stuck with the Niners/Browns game this afternoon, with probably a douche infomercial on NBC.

It's greed on the parts of the NFL, the owners, and to some extent the networks I guess.

Yeah...well here in San Diego we are stuck with watching the Chargers! The only worse place I can think of is Arizona.

why not get the nfl sunday ticket and get all the games

As a Chicago resident myself, I would much rather have seen Minny and Detroit. At least something I care about.

I couldn't give a rats behind about the Colts and Jags!

alright boys one word for you Directv
I personally watch or tape all the games

sonichart · Sep 21, 2003

I'm with Big Ernie,.. I'd get Direct TV,.. but,.. I really can't justify spending the money on all that programming that I won't be using (i'd only be using it for football and baseball..)

I'd really like to be watching the Minn. game though... at least they're winning

Oren1 · Sep 21, 2003

yeah I'd get it too but that's the only thing I'd watch is football. and you gotta sign a one-year contract, so I'd be paying for shit I wasn't watching in the off-season. Eventually some day I will bite the bullet. It would be nice if those fascists would put it on digital cable also.

WC:

Here in AZ most of us are not Cardinals fans so we just watch the other games that are on. No one seems to mind when the Cardinals are blacked out.
