It happened to me for the first time in 4 years yesterday. I live in Charleston, Sc with no "local team". I also live in area that Directv does NOT provide local channels for. So...... basically my reward for being a loyal customer for 4 years is to not get some games. If it happens to be a Buffalo game, somebody at dtv will be getting an earful from me. Sure, my antenna will pick up cbs and fox but the quality is terrible. I paid for all this so i would get a good, clear feed, not so i would have to go back to the dark ages to watch football....... :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: to the new "rules" at Dtv.... Go Bills!!!
