umm?????

Hmmm!! My schedule...printed months ago...shows it as a News10 game. Did they pull out or something?

 

[GoSACtown]

hmm...to me it looks like it was supposed to be on ABC, national tv, but then they pulled it

I am sure worst case it will be on Comcast channel.

 

[TruckeeKingsFan]

Game on News10

http://www.nba.com/kings/

Kings website lists the game on News10. I have Dish Network and I checked the on screen guide which shows the game will be on News10 and it should also be NBA League Pass.

 

[may3one]

so it's not on ABC?

 

[MiniMe]

i\'ve watched every kings game this season, can\'t afford to miss this one

That says it's on news 10.

 

[VF21]

It will be on News10 and League Pass (for those outside the blackout area). It will NOT be on Comcast. It appears as though ABC dropped it because... well... because the Kings haven't exactly lit up the court.

 

[loopymitch]

Aren't they showing Sixers-Pacers on abc? That's what they have listed for me. Lots of ex-Kings

 

[VF21]

Sorry, but ex-Kings are like ex-husbands.

 

[FullAB]

Sorry, but ex-Kings are like ex-husbands.

What?........they buy sports cars and get dumped buy their next wives also?

 

[VF21]

You may still have a warm spot in your heart for them, but you don't really want to see them do too well.

 

[kingsfan52miller]

I just thought i would let everyone know that, i just emailed brian may at news10 and he said this to me...

ABC had originally planned on showing this game but they have since changed. This game will not be shown anywhere locally. Sorry. There is nothing we at News10 can do at this point.

so i guess no coverage

 

[KevinMartinsGirl23]

I wonder if Comcast can pick it up...

 

[kingsfan52miller]

I wonder if Comcast can pick it up...

i was thinking that, because arent we guarenteed or something like that to get to see all 82 games?

 

[SacTownKid]

I don't think this game will be broadcast at all unless the TV crews for both teams can get something together. ABC's crew would have done this game. I guess we'll see.

 

[nebs]

Aw well this is some friggin' BS. I was looking forward to getting up and watching this game. I even made plans around it.

Maybe I'll just go to church.

 

[Merdiesel]

I HOPE its on comcast. As much as Napear is anoying, Hes alot better then abc's anoucers. Besides Doug Collins, they all hate on the Kings.

the only upside of it being in abc is HD.

 

[West_Gunslinger16]

You guys are lucky. You guys just miss 1 game. In my country, we miss I think about 60 games. But a W makes me happy even if I'm not seeing them play.

At present comcast does not ahve the game listed. The broadcst scedual on the offical web site shows this as a News 10 game so I don't know but it definatly looks like those of us in the Big NO will not be watching

 

[loopymitch]

Agreed, if I saw all 82 I wouldn't complain about missing 1. I'm lucky if i see 12

 

[may3one]

Agreed, if I saw all 82 I wouldn't complain about missing 1. I'm lucky if i see 12

i know what you mean, too! so whenever the kings are on national tv, i try to grab at every chance i have to watch them.

 

[ForlornKing]

Last night on the upcoming games, it says the broadcaster like ABC or Comcast, but for Sunday it said 1140 KHTK.

 

[Lirica]

..I am not seeing the game on my LeaguePass schedule...

 

[joejoe]

..I am not seeing the game on my LeaguePass schedule...

In this day and age, it cannot believe that there is a game floating around out there that is not televised on League Pass. WTF?

 

[SDKing]

Kind of makes me angry, league pass isn't cheap and we're paying to SEE the games.

 

[kingsfan52miller]

i guess i shouldnt complain about missing one game, but i dunno...i still dont like it cuz im spoiled i dont know what i would do if i just got to watch national games...but i guess i will be raidio bound

 

[VF21]

Agreed, if I saw all 82 I wouldn't complain about missing 1.

That's not the point. While I personally am very sorry that you and other long-distance fans don't get to see all the games, this situation is going to mean the game won't be televised AT ALL. This hasn't happened since Comcast started carrying all non-national and non-News10 games and it's a shame.

I don't think those of us lucky enough to be able to get the games should feel guilty for being upset about having a game we fully expected to be able to watch taken away...

 

[VF21]

It's not on League Pass because it was originally scheduled to be carried on ABC nationally.

I've sent some emails to the Kings. I'll see if I can find out anything about late changes for coverage, etc. Grant and Jerry are going to be there so maybe, just maybe, at least Comcast will pick it up. What really sucks is that it was scheduled that early in the day for the national coverage.
