Foxtel NBA Schedule Thread

[Karl Pilkington]

Lol I dunno, It's just I assume you live in Melbourne suburbs(as a large majority do on here)?

So you have thousands of people who are probably PC crazy, influencing the millions and judging from last time I was in Melbourne, you have to be careful about anything you say, which makes you very sensitive(There is a better word, but I cant think of it, conciencious(?)) to what people say to you eventually I would think.

I live in a town of 12000 and go out in a city of about 20000 so the culture is pretty laid back. Call a spade a spade, those type of nicknames never raise eyebrows, like it has on here.

I cant think of any other reason for such a gap in our standards here.

I'm just trying to find a reason why this is

It isn't a matter of political correctness.

It's just, in Melbourne, it makes you come across liek you think you're better than the person you're calling chief.

It also comes across as very 'country' which is bash-worthy in itself, as we all know people from the country are a disgrace.

But I can see you didn't mean any harm from it. Just don't call me chief again, or i will have to report you to Borgsta again.

Would you report my post three times if I called you Chiefy Chief Chief?

Considering I live no where near a metropolitan area, or Melbourne to be exact, very disgraceful (), and never have it probably explains my absolute lack of awareness of this hate of it then. Consider it noted for when I come over in a couple of months. I could've been in real trouble.

Chief and Champ are now officially taken out of my BF and big city vocabulary, unless I slip up on here which is likely when I'm just typing away.

Man, now that ive actually looked at this Foxtel schedule, it really is an absolute joke. Was it this bad last year? Three games in the next couple of weeks, and two are on a saturday! So I probally wont even get too watch them anyway.

 

[Dime]

Yep I won't be able to watch either of the Saturday games either. Really ____en annoying. Well I'll be able to watch this Sat game if it's an early one (like 10am).
Still.. very frustrating.

3rd May: 12pm & 8pm
Game 6: Teams unknown 2008 NBA Playoffs First Round

I would suggest we will get another Boston v Atlanta game for this one as I cant see ROckets/Jazz going to 6 and Hornets have wrapped up Dallas.

 

[X_box_X]

The Foxtel schedule is a load of bull. Three foxsports channels, plus ESPN, and they can only show 1-2 live playoffs games per week.

You'd think they'd be showing the playoffs every day, sometimes even double headers.

 

[Alex99]

Game 7??


Boston Vs Atlanta anyone know if ESPN will be screening it Monday (Sunday in Boston)?

Piss the baseball off and show the Basketball game.

Hello People.

If luck goes our way we get a double header Saturday.

If Boston and LA wrap up early we get nothing otherwise it will incude Boston vs Cavs and LA vs Utah back to back as a double header.

 

[Red.White and Blue]

Nup. Mets Yankees baseball game on in the morning instead.

ESPN really are pathetic with how they change their schedule.

Pulled coverage of a baseball game on Monday at the last minute and changed it to Spanish Soccer.

 

[PHX]

WHAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!???

That's really ____ing crap to change it so late,.

 

[Heisenberg_]

baseball is boring as shit and can't see many people actually giving a shit about it either.

Horrible decision

 

[celtic_pride]

Meh Baseball is actually a really good sport, esp come playoff time, but right now it's disgusting they chose to put on the New York derby instead of a crucial, vital game, which hopefully will be the game that sends Boston back to the east finals ..

I don't think you really blame foxtel, it's out of their hands, more the twits at ESPN ..
