    Stupid TSN

    I will never watch that channel again, ever.

    Because of their stupid scheduling, I couldn't go to the game. Next best thing? Watching it at home.
    I keep the Montreal vs Hamilton game on, waiting for the Esks game.
    After that game, it switches to friggen ESPN Classic BASEBALL- the sport for weiner kids. Then cuts back into the game right after the flag ceremony.

    Thank you, TSN. I really needed to see 8 minutes of a stupid baseball game that means nothing to anybody, instead of watching a touching moment involving my favorite player of all time.

    You'll never watch TSN again ever?

    Good luck seeing Esks away games then...

      I'm guessing it was because it was going to be blacked out and then the Esks made the late decision to lift the blackout....

        I think the blacking out of games is actually the responsibility of the carrier... whether it be Shaw, Bell, etc.

        TSN just supplies the feed.

        As I PVR'd this and it looks like I also missed that part of the telecast, Spec should be aiming her ire at Shaw.
        Look. We can go round and round about this all the live long day. Let's keep it simple. I embody amazement. Can you dig on that? Good. Then meet me on the corner of rock and roll, and bring a flask of something that burns.

          Good luck never watching TSN again is right.

          You could have been really mad and not even seen the game. You'll watch TSN again.

            I was thinking that I did not miss a minute of the game here in Saskatchewan, so it had to be something in Edmonton. They went right from Montreal to Edmonton with no Baseball game in between.

            I also think that SPec will watch TSN considering I can not see her beloved Stars being on CBC or Sportsnet much

              That's like the night Shaw switched to racing in the middle of the game.

                That was a MUCH WORSE gaffe on Shaw's part than Spec's being switched to baseball. But then, Shaw has had years of technical difficulties, glitches, unexplained loss of cable, etc.

                  1. Shaw has no real competition in Edmonton. I don't know a lot of people that rush out for Telus TV or a dish.

                  2. Ergo, bend over, because it's defo coming again...

                    It could have been worse...they could have aired "Heidi"

                      That wouldn't have been so bad:

                        First of all, blame the league for scheduling the Esks' first 4 home games on Thursday nights.

                        Secondly, did you miss any of the actual game?

                        I understand your frustration, but put it in perspective...

                          Must have been an Edmonton thing not a TSN thing. Didn't miss anything here in Regina.

                            Boy, Shaw really likes to stick to the Esks fans, hey?

                              I thought the game was blacked out but I caught the last quarter as I had to work. Next time I record regardless.
