Albany,n.y. Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 No, they don't want people tuning in and seeing an empty stadium. I read somewhere that there is a local broadcast in KC. I may listen to part of it on field pass, I've got the Dolphins pregame on right now & it's kind of boring.
granitestatebillsbackers Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 It's on TV in the local markets only. On Canada's version of Sunday Ticket. NFL Network will be replaying the game on Sunday night at 8pm (yawn) Game radio broadcasts from Miami and KC in local markets on Sirius.
Bflojohn Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 I've got Sunday ticket and I can't find it anywhere! I did, however, notice that the Cowboys game next week is already "up" on the schedule (October 30th, Cardinals) and that might mean that that was the channel (706, I believe...) that the Chiefs and Dolphins would have been on!
kasper13 Posted October 21, 2005 Posted October 21, 2005 There is actually a congressional act or law or something that was passed in the 1960's that prohibits the NFL from showing games on TV on Friday Nights from September through November so as not to ruin the integrity of high school football. Unreal. Tonight's game is only on TV in Kansas City and Miami.

Unreal. Tonight's game is only on TV in Kansas City and Miami. 482339[/snapback] the law was passed in '73, and it also covers saturdays during the regular season of college football. that's why you don't see saturday NFL games until december. the problem i have with tonight is that NFL sunday ticket is a PAID-FOR subscription -- it's not "over the air" TV that any joker can tune into. i paid for the right to watch all NFL games not aired nationally, and this game should be on the ticket LIVE -- not in a re-broadcast on sunday. if i were a KC or miami fan transplanted in another market i would really be pissed. this is a screwup by the NFL -- i doubt that airing the game on the ticket violates that law for the reason that it is a paid subscription.
