TV & Sundays BU game

[shaunguth]

The isu game is listed as being on channelsurfing.net today and it's a 2pm start. It would be nice to have their loss out of the way before our game!

It would also be nice if the majority of the potential BU / SIU viewers actually had the station to see the game.

ESPN is showing a rerun of poker(which is not a sport) at 6:00 tonight, anyone else see a problem with this as ESPNU is not seen on most cable or sattelite basic packages.

Poker is the right move. Remember, ESPN is against the NFL. Their best chance at ratings is something like poker, which gets non-sport fans. People who would rather watch college basketball than poker are also more likely to watch NFL than either.

Checked both espn360.com and channelsurfing.net and neither site shows BU vs. SIU. Unbelievable....

If I'm not mistaken, channelsurfing is dependent on users to come in and broadcast the game. If no user capable of providing a feed to ESPNU is interested in doing so for the BU/SIU game....well, we're boned then




I feel like I'm poo-pooing the thread

The only other options would be iceskating, gymnastics, or bowling.

I thought I was in the clear to watch this game but the game is not on ESPN360 nor Bubraves.tv! WT# I was at least hoping the game was going to be on my paid service of Bubraves.tv. Chance are very slim that this game will be on a feed somewhere.

I don't mean to be rude and I apologize if it comes out that way. I think I understand your point. But... Buffalo Wild Wings is a business. They exist and are able to provide entertainment because people buy food and drink there. They use some of the profit to support things like Bradley athletics. I think you should be expected to buy food and or drinks if you go to watch the game. Also, the servers are paid mostly by tips. If people who are not spending money are at tables that would otherwise be occupied by buyers it costs the employees money. That being said I think they are ok with people who stay to watch games long after they have finished eating. Just remember to take care of your server if they provide good service.

Well said and you were not being rude.The fact seems to elude some area folks that, businesses and their employees actually have to make money to exist.
