Blacked Out.

dberce1 · 11-11-2004, 02:50 PM

Officially been blacked out. No TV.

I'm sure at least 5 people will follow this post with, "Yea, they shouldn't be on TV", or "I wouldn't have watched anyways". We all know that's a croc, every single one of us would watch, down to the last second of the 4th quarter. In all honesty, they don't deserve to be on TV after last weeks stinker,

BUT I'M GONNA MISS SEEING MY BOYS IN ACTION!!! WIN OR LOSE!! THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT!!

Do you know how far the blackout extends? I live near Mobile but normally watch the games on a station out of Biloxi.

turbo_dog - The game is a CBS game. You should be able to view it from the CBS feed out of Mobile. I think that is channel 5, if I am remembering correctly. If the game was on FOX, the game would be blacked out on FOX 25 out of Gulfport, but not on the FOX station in Mobile.

dberce1, wanna buy my tickets? Great seats, section 151 near the front ... so there\'s still time to enjoy all the gooey goodness of a good ol\' butt-whoopin\'! If you act now, I\'ll even throw in my plane ticket out of Birmingham ... a classy, comfy flight on prestigious Southwest Airlines!

But serously, in regard to what MatthewT said, the CBS affiliate here in Birmingham still shows Chiefs at Saints as their Sunday game, so you may be able to catch it...

Thanks for the offer Mutineer, but I actually gave 4 tickets away for Sunday. Behind the Saints bench, 40 yard line, 33 rows up. Trying to save a little moolah for the Santa season.

I do not have that problem -- I live out of town (have season tickets but will let my kid at Tulane use them without me since I am not going to spend the dough to come to this game) but certainly will watch them at some sports bar. That would be my suggestion -- go hit a sports bar with the NFL package -- they have it regardless of the blackout

not true..i have the nfl package and if it was scheduled to come on tv..its blacked out on the nfl ticket..going to the game is the only option

johnnythesaint · 11-12-2004, 02:13 PM

I\'m not so sure about that. Couldn\'t a Chiefs fan watch the game, maybe the sunday ticket works different down there in the states, but up here you get all the games if you subscribe.Regardless of who is blacked out, these are satellite signals remember.

I\'ve just bumped my flight up to 8:40 tonight. My girl is gonna pick me up, and I\'m gonna stay drunk until 12 noon Sunday. Probably get drunk again during the game, if all goes as I think it will...

Well if it is a CBS game I might be able to watch it in Ohio. I already have the Minnesota vs new orleans game taped. I may use the tape for the cheifs game instead. Hey I wonder will Preist Holmes and black lock combine for 8 tds against us also. Could get intresting. LMAO.
