    CBS left game

    I was screaming at the tv when CBS (here in Harrisburg area) decided to cut way from the game today and go to the Eagles/Dolphins game!

    I know it was a blowout but I missed the last 8+ min (including Will Allen's knockout shot). Had to listen to rest of game on Sirius.

    Happen to anyone else?

    That was bush league. I'm in LA, and I would've been as pissed as you normally.

    HOWEVER, it is hard for me to complain, when we're on regular TV here every week! (knock on wood) I think I've only had to go out to watch the game twice(?) out of 10 games so far!

    NO TEAM IN LA!!!
    I wasn't hired for my disposition.

      I wasn't able to watch the game...so be happy!


      ...but to stay on course here, yes...that does suck and is ridiculous that they would cut the game with a lead like that. They shouldn't cut games off for any reason...this is why they have replays showing at the end of games throughout the league.

            Yep. I've had the Ticket since '98 and haven't missed a play. It's pricey but saves me from going to a sports bar. It's pays for itself in the long run.

              I live in York County and they left the game here as well. I didn't like it, 30-9 really isn't game over, 40-9 or something like that, yes, but 30-9 can still be a game. I get it didn't appear that the Browns were capable of a comeback, but Andrew Luck has been bringing his team back for the past couple years after digging them into a deep hole, so it is possible, however, improbable.

                    Haha nice. I live in an area where every single Steelers game has been on regular tv this season.

                      Not really, this Steeler team isn't good enough on defense to count those chickens, IMO.

                        Last year, I would have agreed with you. Heck, Week 2, I would have agreed...

                        This year, not so much...

                        28 sacks, 9 INTs, 10 forced fumbles (9 recoveries)...allowing only one team to top 30 points this season...

                        I'm not worried about the defense as much as I am the offense...the O has to go back to protecting the football like they did earlier in the year...
                        Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

                          Yea lots of yards between and around those defensive stats. But points against no so much, quite a turn around from previous years lately.

                              Those of you with the Sunday ticket might want to consider the NFL network's game day. I made the switch and couldn't be happier because:

                              It's 100 bucks a year rather thatn the 350+ that I was paying for the ticket.
                              I can watch thru ROKU which I had anyway.
                              I can watch any game that I want whenever I want, after 8 pm on Sunday.
                              They have 2 versions of every game, both without any commercials, the full version and the condensed version.
                              I've been watching the condensed versions of the games because:
                              I can see the whole game in 30 minutes.
                              They cut out those incessant annoying 3 replays after every play.
                              They cut out most of the ocean mouthed color guys such as Sims and Collinsworth, etc.
                              They cut out those shrieking airhead bimbos on the sidelines butting in with their dumbass opinions.

                              All in all a much better deal.
