Yes I missed it. F cablevision and F Fox.

 

You can go to Giants.com and LISTEN to a live webcast. Better than nothing.

One of the very few things Comcast is good for. (Even though I'm not a Giants fan)

am radio still has some uses...

What happened that prevented you from watching the game?

[Krdshrk 3,878]

Fox's parent company wants $150 million from Cablevision. It's friggin ridiculous. Good thing I'm at my GF's - she's got dish network so i was able to watch it.

[NicePants 58]

Can't you just hook up an antenna to your TV and get Fox without any Cablevision? They are a broadcast station after all.

Depends. If you have an older tv you need a digital converter box. I think even if you have a tv with a digital tuner you still need a different kind of antenna. Not the typical rabbit ears.

That's why it's so outrageous that Fox's parent company wants to charge Cablevision that much for it.

[Don't Tread On Me 4]

Yeah I know, $150 million vs. Free, I just don't see how they are going to be able to justify that price.

HD can be picked up using a regular antenna and an HD television can tune it.

Who knows when this will get resolved 2 post season games shot and a day of football. Neither side was even talking during all of this they meet for a few hours on Sat and Sun and go home.

 

I don't blame Cablevision Fox is the greedy SOB's. Cablevision said they are OK with binding arbitration and Fox won't even ok that.

[Krdshrk 3,878]

Don't blame Fox for asking for so much? Who's the greedy bastards?

[Wolfy 51]

Sorry krdshrk lost my train of thought and I fixed it.

 

I love what Christie said.

 

These cable companies have an obligation. The obligation is to deliver the signal of the stations we want to see into our homes. Our citizens pay a hefty price, and they make a significant amount of money. They’re buying sports teams, arenas, staring their own networks. There’s no lack of money … That’s all ratepayer money. So my concern on this is they are not fulfilling the obligation they have to the ratepayers in New Jersey.”

Having worked for cablevision for many years I can tell you that if there is an arguement and the Dolan's and Cablevision are on one side, I believe the other.
