And in the meanwhile, I'm in the heart of Dane County, Wisconsin, which undoubtedly has far more interest in the Bears / Lions game, but instead we're stuck with the NO / ATL overtime clusterfuck.
Edit: Oh, fuck, no one told me it was motherfucking Thom Brennaman calling the game. Never mind!
Yeah, well, the Baltimore station showed the meaningless Redskins game instead of the critical Bengals/Steelers game this afternoon. When will these programming assholes realize that NO ONE in Baltimore cares about the Redskins?
Also, how do the Ravens manage to make shitty teams look good and good teams look shitty? I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

Good lord, this is more than humiliating, we're veering into emasculation over at Soldier Field.
As far I understand, everyone gets the "game of the week" unless you're in the home market of one of the other teams playing.
Yay Broncos. 
Nice to see them win.
Boo Redskins.
Nice to see them win. Boo Redskins.
Well I got a hold of or emailed, CBS and CBS Sports whose (reps sounded very tired of this particular complaint), the NFL and Subway (since they sponsor the post game show.) First time I've been able to actually be home and watch a full game and they cut away from it!? Hell no!
^Exactly how much of the game was left when they cut away?
The sad thing is the Phillies probably have a better chance of winning the Super Bowl this year than the Eagles do.
They cut away during the second half of the 3rd quarter. Exactly how much time I couldn't tell you. I thought it would be a brief cutaway that is sometimes done. Still there was no reason to cut away from the game completely. I've changed channels when the Cowboys were being blow out by their opponents, I don't see why those bored with the game couldn't do the same.
Wow, that early? I apologize for giving you a hard time over this in that case! 
I can't say I've ever heard of a game being pulled that early.... I thought you were just complaining about it being switched in the back-half of the fourth. In this I completely agree.... that is crap and you guys got screwed.

Why is Stafford still wearing that stupid "wind" glove?
Maybe he's hoping he can blame it for this game.
I use this site to tell me what games I have in any given week.

I don't live in any team's primary market, so I usually get whatever game has a featured local player or whichever is the best matchup. I also can get two Fox affiliates with my antenna, so sometimes I get lucky and get 4 day games in a weekend. I've never gotten lucky enough to have 5 games, although I guess its possible (if Fox has the doubleheader and both affiliates are showing different games for both timeslots).
The NFL rules state that a primary market cannot turn away from a game no matter how much of a blowout it is. Secondary markets can turn away in blowouts.
According to that map I can actually watch the Chicago game on TV in the next county or two over. Bizarre
Apparently, those are Stafford's scrappin' gloves.
This game is getting ugly. I love it.
Come again?
