Anyone else missing the Giants game because of this Cablevision Bull$hit?!

 

Yes I missed it. F cablevision and F Fox.

 

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

Firstrow.net is broadcasting it. You just have to install a plugin

Giants...eeewwwww

Fuseball, yuck.

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?

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.

Who cares. The Giants SUCK!!!!!!!!!!

The amount of philistines in this topic is astonishing.

direct tv, my friend (unless it snows or downpours!)

I watched the Jets Win again 5-1 YA BABY !!!!!

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.

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.

rabbit ears and a digital tuning box and you are GTG.

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.

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

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.
