Starting time changed for Kent game

Post by gmartin »

The start time for the Sat, Feb 25 game against Kent has been moved from 4pm to 6pm as the game has been selected as STO game of the week. The women play Miami now at 1:00. THIS SUCKS!!!!! BG SHOULD HAVE SAID NO!!!!!!! The women's game more than likely will be for the division title and possibly overall MAC regular season champs. Should be the biggest attendance of the year. NOW WE HAVE A CONFLICT TO ACCOMMODATE TV. HOCKEY PLAYS MICHIGAN AT THE ICE ARENA. SENIOR NIGHT. WHAT WAS A WONDERFUL TRIPLE HEADER NOW SUCKS. I encourage everyone to write letters to the univetsity. Who gives a rat ass about tv.

+1,000,000. I was so pumped about this triple header and this sucks BiG time....Women vs Miami, Men vs Kent and hockey vs Michigan. It doesn't get much better than that and now we have to choose AGAIN? WTF???? Just sent an email is to GC tonight and I didn't hold back. I am pissed. Quit effin up the schedules just so that tool Reghi and his idiot partner Mix are in the house. :vom:

As I put in the hockey forum, maybe they can move the hockey game back to 9. All games are subject to change to accommodate tv. Since the men's game is now on STO, BCSN will no longer be broadcasting it. So, and this is what I am telling GC. Have BCSN broadcast the hockey game. Now they have a reason to switch the start time and I don't think there is anything U of M can say. So lets change the start time of the hockey game to 9pm.

In order to change the start time of the hockey game, both teams must approve. Red's getting old. No way he let's a game start that late. 9 puck drops, 11:30 game ends, hour drive home for them. Only way is if NBC picks the game up.

I understand wanting to be on TV....but, Sportstime Ohio is such a joke. Only about a quarter of the state get's the damn channel. It's not like BG is moving this so ESPNU can pick it up.

And if you remember last year, STO was also part of the Kent State basketball network. The Announcers for all their games shown on STO were their home boys, unless tools Reghi and Mix did the broadcast. I wrote an email to GC and also left a voicemail. Let's see if I get a response.

I was thinking this would be funny. Most basketball fans do not attend both basketball and hockey games. I on the other hand have 6 tickets to each game. I will be leaving the men's basketball game with about 5 minutes remaining in the first half so I can attend the hockey game pre ceremonies. It is senior night and I am not going to miss the senior recognition before the game. I think it would be pretty funny if everyone in the Stroh Center would get up and leave the basketball game during the first half. It maybe a wake up call if they have to play the second half with nobody in the stands.

THANK YOU! As a huge hockey fan who has seen this program nearly disappear, those two seniors deserve as many people there as possible. That said, however, I think it ABSOLUTELY STINKS that you even have to make the choice at all. Giving up one BG sport to be able to go to another, FOR THIS REASON, SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN!!! :evil: THIS SUCKS. PERIOD. :axe:

GO FALCONS SPORTS....ALL OF THEM!!!!
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."
