Foxtel screwing us around again!!!!!

I'm am 100% certain that when I checked the Foxtel TV Guide plus the ESPN International website earlier this week that it showed playoff games would be shown on Saturday (Jazz @ Warriors) and Sunday (Suns @ Spurs).

Tonight, I was watching SportsCenter and just happened to notice when I was looking at the TV Guide an entry for NBA Conference Semifinals at 8pm. I called up the info on it and saw that it was a replay of today's Pistons-Bulls game.

I check the guide for tomorrow. Guess what? NO JAZZ vs WARRIORS game!!!!!!! Instead? NCAA COLLEGE VOLLEYBALL!!!!!! I had been waiting all week to finally watch my Warriors on my big screen plasma and now thanks to these bastards I'll have to wait longer or, perhaps, not even get to see them at all.

I'm going to ring them up and curse the hell out of whoever I speak to. I don't care if they say they aren't responsible for ESPN. They are transmitting the channel and so that makes them responsible for the coverage. When people complain, they should be doing something about it.

I hear ya brother. I am so god damn fed up with those pricks. They play crap games all year when there is quality playing on the same day and now they pull this shit by not providing Finals games consistently. I'm gonna wipe my shitty ass after I've baked a bomber - with their TV guide - and mail it to the f%*kers

Magic Man, what an incredibly silly comment. How can you be lucky to have Foxtel (a privelege you pay good money to have) and then not get what you want out of it. Its worse than not having it when you don't get the satisfaction out of what you pay for.

I would be upset if I had missed the Warriors Jazz game for replayed womens volleyball. It was a super game. Who won the volleyball? :)

Been trying for ages to get Foxedtail to give us descent coverage .. but they always say blame it on ESPN ... then write to ESPN .. and they say blame it on the contract ... NObody wants to take responsibility for the crap we get .. well really it is Foxtel's problem cause we PAY money to them.. so if ESPN arent doing the job .. then they should get NBA TV or something else ....!!!! given up on them .. Foxytail is lucky they don't have any cable competition in this country cause they will be blown out !!! WE have crap cable here in AUS .. if u see what they have in Philippines, US or canada ..u'll be AMAZED !!!!
