stuckincincy Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 Thanks for that! You're welcome. It's a handy site - credit for finding it goes to another poster here, a few seasons ago. The site owner updates it for coverage changes throughout the week.
Heitz Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 YESSSSSS! The opener is on TV up here in Vermont - party at my place!
Ned Flanders Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Brian Billick is doing color for Fox?!?!! Oh my Gawd, pray that for our only other Fox game, SF, Billick will be somewhere else!
jwolf02 Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Thanks, Ron Pitts and Tony Boselli in Week 1... Of those early games, that's probably the best team we could get, IMO at least. Pitts is tolerable and Boselli is actually pretty darn good.
stuckincincy Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 Brian Billick is doing color for Fox?!?!! Oh my Gawd, pray that for our only other Fox game, SF, Billick will be somewhere else! I'd like to see how Billick does. He's pretty irascible - I have seen him a lot through the years, with CIN and BAL in the same division. Last year, NE's* Harrison gave him some sideline lip during their game, and Billick stuck out his tongue at him and made "poor baby" gestures.

Actually, I'm pretty sure Billick blew him a kiss. On edit: Yep. Anyway, that site is a great resource for those of us who choose to remain DirecTV-less and just go Over-the-Air. I was going to post this if no one else did.
Bmwolf21 Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Brian Billick is doing color for Fox?!?!! Oh my Gawd, pray that for our only other Fox game, SF, Billick will be somewhere else! The only "announcer praying" I'll be doing this year is that the trio of NFL Network morons - Sharpe, Faulk and Deion - are nowhere near a Bills broadcast during the regular season.
stuckincincy Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 Actually, I'm pretty sure Billick blew him a kiss. On edit: Yep. Yep...you're right - that was it. I like Billick. I know people give him the business about his offense - but most of his clubs have been competitive, warts and all. He reminds me a bit of Jerry Glanville, somehow. CIN in the days of Sam Wyche used to take turns with HOU running up the score against Glanville . Billick and whatever CIN coaching regime...same thing when possible.
kegtapr Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Great, another season of the late game being the "Dallas Cowboys Sunday Ticket" on Fox. You'd prefer one of the other two games?
Sen. John Blutarsky Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I'm not sure the map is correct right now. It shows Buffalo as gettign the Miami/Jets agem at one. problme is that's opposite the Bills game at one and as far as I know that ain't kosher

It shows Buffalo as gettign the Miami/Jets agem at one. problme is that's opposite the Bills game at one and as far as I know that ain't kosher Good pickup, but I think since this is a special circumstance (US Open) where CBS has no late game, this may mean that there has to be at least one CBS and Fox game in each market. So, in other words, CBS has to get a game in each market and they waive the "rule" for this week only. But don't take this to the bank, just speck-u-latin' here.

That certainly looks to be the case, Ned. Also, there is no 1:00 FOX game shown in Boston as the Pats* game is on CBS. I guess there's a non-compete issue here? Which seriously sucks a--.

Anyway, that site is a great resource for those of us who choose to remain DirecTV-less and just go Over-the-Air. I was going to post this if no one else did. Although I'd certainly advise people to bookmark it for themselves, I also added it at the top of the pinned radio/TV thread. (Think I did that last year, but lost the updates in the crash. Ah well ...)
Estro Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Another great site for checking out what games will be televised in your market is: zap2it.com Look for tv listings, then punch in your area code. From there you can check dates and times to see what will be on air in your market. zap2it
UConn James Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Hey James. I'll be driving back from the Cape on Sunday. Any idea on radio feeds for the game (no I don't have Sirius)? For the Bills game? Went up that way for my brother's wedding the weekend of the Lions game 2 years ago and was reduced to squatting next to the speaker to hear a station that was doing in-game updates, jumping around b/w 10 contests like a child with a severe case of ADD. I don't remember what station, but it was on the AM band, I think in the 700s but that's probably wrong. I've had radios that sporadically got 1180 or 930 out of Rochester from here in NE CT, but I doubt they're that strong anymore and last I tried years ago, got nothing. Until about age 20, I used to get really upset when I couldn't track the game progress, but age and performance of this team has helped palliate that. Good luck.
