Why is it that I have to go to ESPN.COM to find out what's on Fox's

[KitchenWitch]

MLB on Fox Saturday afternoon baseball games?

God I hate Fox.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

1. Huh?

really? that is weird

[KitchenWitch]

3. Fox's website is deliberately laid out so you can't find the TV listings.

And the local one has too much flash crap on it to load at any decent speed (and I am on broadband).

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

6. oh, I guess you can tell I have never

darkened their web door... nor do I intend to

[KitchenWitch]

11. I was just trying to figure out if I was going to be able to see the Twins play

tomorrow or not.

Looks like (I am guessing here) that here in the Los Angeles area, we will likely get the Yankees @ Red Sox, since everybody everywhere is either a Yankees fan or a Red Sox fan.

2. I thought you had the Every Fucking Game in the World cable package

Or does Faux Sprots make 'em black that out? :shrug:



Anyway, which game are they gonna fuck up tomorrow?

[reyd reid reed]

5. Saturday games on those channels are blacked out until 5 p.m.

(my time, anyway)

Which sucks.

[Oeditpus Rex]

7. So even if you pay a b'skillion dollars for cable, like you'n Kitchy,

Faux Shit can piss all over ya?



Nice.

10. It is the spawn of something evil.

8. Every fucking game in the world except the three or four that Fox butchers on Sat. afternoons

Fox will be butchering the

Yankees @ Red Sox
Cubs @ Brewers
Royals @ Twins
Nationals @ Phillies

Because it is totally par for the course, I am fully expecting to get the Yankees @ Red Sox game here in the LA market because after all, the east and west coasts are so much more close together regionally than the west and midwest.

12. It's not geography

Extensive marketing research by Faux Shit has determined that the Jankees and Red Pox are the only ball clubs that anyone cares about.

The same research firm determined that Caribou Barbie is more than qualified to be queen of the United States and all the foreign countries that border it.

[KitchenWitch]

14. No shit.

4. Prolly 'cause

they all changed. Last time I checked, my game was gonna be on at 11:05 my time...and on WGN. Now it's Fux. Means I won't get Len and Bob and I'll have to listen to whassisface. And Scooter-Skippy-Bippy-Bop.

Grrrrrrrr.

[KitchenWitch]

13. I could not even find a TV listing.

It was insane. As much as I rail on ESPN for being so Eastern centric, the people over there know how to set a website up that easily navigated to the correct information.

15. I'm glad The Tribe took care of the White Sox tonight

And helped the Twins out. Being a typical bitter, petty, self-loathing/defeating Cleveland Sports Fan (:D), one of the few joys I've had in the past several years has been Jim Thome's inability to take any team he plays for to the playoffs ever since screwing The Tribe and signing w/ the Phillies.The whole "they'll have to rip the jersey off my back" thing thome said still sticks in my craw...

[KitchenWitch]

17. And even that win for the Tribe was a hard fought battle.

Hearing about all the White Sox players (and manager) whining during the past series against them was a bit hard to take.

16. There's always Y! TV listings
