    i know i cursed the Dyngus Day parade for ruining a game i wanted to watch for many many years....

     

    sometimes the Final Four extended into April

     

    Dyngus day parade is more popular then ever now!

     

    Still dont understand why they would have a dyngus day parade consistently on a sunday afternoon in the middle of march. Dyngus day is always the monday after easter, which would be at the earliest march 22nd. It had to be st patricks day parade. That would make way more sense.

    it wiped out the 2nd round of March Madness at least until 1994... I moved to Toronto that year and it wasn't a problem for me....

     

    i would guess it was the Sunday afternoon session.

     

    as well, the Oscars were the same night as the NCAA Final, causing all kinds of misery before people got 8 TVs in their homes, then the Oscars packed it in and moved away to another night

     

    Was the basketball tournament in april back then? I know easter can be in march, but its rare.

    Channel 4 in Buffalo carried the Dyngus Day Parade live well into the 1990s, cutting out the national CBS broadcast of the Saturday/ Sunday 2nd round of March Madness, had to go 20 miles away to get the Erie feed, somehow not included with the NBC and ABC affiliate on my cable package...   :(

     

     

    When did they have the parade? Usually dyngus day is the monday after easter, which is normally in April i would think?

    Why should I have to do the legwork?  They're already putting maps together for CBS and FOX.   Why can't they just FINISH THEIR JOBS and do it for NBC, too?

    Because its nationally televised, and extremely rare that a telethon would trump sunday night football. In the time that you typed your last post on here, i plugged in wnyt.com in my browser and figured it out that you have the game.

    go check again. 

     

    remember in 2017 we had the same record with the chargers who crushed us? we got in ahead of them. 

     

    We have the worst SOS in the NFL this season, we aren't winning any tiebreakers this year, its 10 wins or bust for us. 9-7 gets you nowhere. 

    It was a 3 way tie breaker, where the three teams didnt all play against one another. Since baltimore was also 9-7, thats why the chargers didnt get to rely on head-to-head tie breaker.

  6. I mean, its been this way for the cowboys for 30 years. I think i learned to live with it 10 years ago.

     

    I think if you arent a bills fan by geographical location. You are a bills fan, because they have to earn every recognition they get. The small town team mentality. Now we have 3 national tv games in 4 weeks, because we are 9-3. And the one game that isnt, is still being sent to a large audience (baltimore).
