Man I thought that the game being at 9 it was for sure an ESPN game...We should tell the Big Ten network to go to hell if they want to wait till 9 to televise our game...

I mean I will be there so it isn't that big of a deal, but I would think we would have some wiggle room with the big ten network especially since there is more than one channel...

Hell, they aren't even showing another game at 7. I figured there was a 7:00 game and that's why this one is later....nope......bastards.

My guess is that telling them to "go to hell" (which is a great idea) is not an option.

they haven't had the "multiple channel set up" for any basketball games this year (at least on DirecTV). They had a game run over its time slot a couple weeks ago and they joined the second game in progress. I flipped to the BTNa channels and nothing was on.

Same thing on Insight... no multiple channels and I missed the first approximately 8 minutes of the Purdue game because the game before that went long. Oh well, at least I have it.

Somewhere in all this TV and Channel stuff I think tOSU might learn to a little more considerate of their fans. The almighty dollar reigns in just about all sports nowdays.

We need to get back on track tonight so I hope the Bucks get a great game out of everyone.

:oh:

yeah...it was the purdue game. i couldn't remember which one it was. anyhooo,

I am excited for the game tonight, this is a must win game and I think the boys will come out ready to play.
If Lighty can start finishing around the hoop, Hunter and Koufus play with effort, and Diebler can knock down a couple bombs, this team can do some damage from here on out.

I really think KK turned the corner in the second half against Tennesse. Hunter also showed me alot.....he just needs to bring his A game every night. a little home cooking could do the boys a little good as well.
