Stupid- game tonight (1 Viewer)

[ghostguy123]

So this is the first time I get a chance to sit and watch a little preseason. I bring my cable box out to my man-cave, and boom...........game is blacked out in my area

 

[dino259]

I don't get the NFL network so no game. and weren't the eagle just on a national game last week.

 

[JoeSteeler]

yeah same here. this sucks.

 

[ghostguy123]

Check your local channels for a pick up

 

[ghostguy123]

so you are sitting there in Pittsburgh, and a preseason game is blacked out for you, yet people in Omaha Nebraska get to watch the game.

The NFL does some stupid crap.

How much money could they be making on commercials for this game in those areas?? When they can be making a lot on the Pit/Philly area, plus all the way out here. So idiotic

Jesus, that has to pay more than ticket sales anyway

 

[ghostguy123]

Check your local channels for a pick up

pretty sure thursday night football doesnt work that way

 

[JoeSteeler]

thought the radius was 60 miles for the nfl blackout? I am 100 from Pittsburgh

[Peyton Marino]

are you sure you even get nfl network? that may be why the screen is black.

 

[JoeSteeler]

I doubt you are serious but...

green box that says "due to nfl blackout rules, this game will not be shown in some areas"

 

[bluemagic]

Did you unplug it and plug it back in?

 

[JoeSteeler]

Did you unplug it and plug it back in?

duh only about 12 times. I even tried rebooting my chromecast and that didn't do a darn thing. I did find a weird Netflix remote under the couch though
