ONN televised games

I see ONN has picked up three more Ohio U. games to televise. The station has already had two Bobcat games on this season, one which was vs. Cincinnati, aside from the OU games that will be on Fox Sports Ohio and ESPN/ESPN2. That's a nice selection of OU games that will be on TV. I wish we could get picked up on something like this, even just one game. (Yes, I know Ohio is supposed to be a lot better then BG, I'm just saying it would be nice). I believe our only scheduled TV game is a FSNO game vs. Kent State.

I think I've just gotten spolied by football being all over TV the last couple years.

Fox Sports Ohio will be gone in the next 3 years. No Tribe = no viewers...

ONN (while still the most boring channel on cable TV) has a real chance to pick up some steam across the state with pickups like this. Who knows, maybe they'll start broadcasting in stereo and get some equipment that doesn't make their signal look like it's coming from Grandpa's VCR from 1987.

Yeah, this is a chance for them to make a run at it if they want to. I don't watch this channel unless their is a game on it, but if they keep airing more of them and improve their quality, they could tap into something. To their credit, the OU game with Rhode Island was taped-delay and has all kinds of problems with their equipment, but their game against Cinny was shown live and was much better.

FSN is not dead... there is this man named Lebron who plays basketball for the Cavs... allegedly he is very good...

there is also the Blue Jackets and Reds who also play on FSN... all of which i watch.

On top of that I watch the ACC games on Sunday afternoons which are awesome...

FSN... not going anywhere.

I think FSN is solid, I just wish FSNO (Fox Sports Net Ohio) would jump on the MAC ball. I'd rather watch MAC hoops than poker or dog shows, and I can't be alone.....can I?

the word is that to fill next summer's programming gap after the indians started their own network fsn ohio will be televising dogs playing poker, just like the tacky paintings.
