Saturday's game on TV (DirectTV)?

[Ginofan]

According to this article (http://www.nj.com/sports/ledger/index.ssf?/base/sports-0/1097735449123000.xml), the MSG Network will broadcast the game...BUT when I look at the DirectTV program guide it's showing CFL football. Anyone know what the deal is?


Wilkens said he

can't say how much playing time he will give Marbury, who played on the Olympic team this summer, during the game. He did say it would be less than 30 minutes, however.... MSG Network will broadcast Saturday's preseason game against the San Antonio Spurs. The game tips off at 1 p.m.

[Kori Ellis]

It looks like MSG might have changed their schedule. So that would mean it WOULD be on DirecTV. The best bet is for someone in the NY area to call MSG.

[boutons]

Fatso's sounds like they might be showing it, but no "manager" is in, yet.

Where else on the N/NE side of SA has a sports bar?

[Kori Ellis]

Firehouse Grill 35 & Walzem, ask for Sam.

[ChumpDumper]

Well, at least I get to listen to it at work.

[ducks]

humm

I hope to watch it but my grandpa is in the hospital so who knows

[boutons]

Firehouse says they have DirecTV but don't get Madison Square Garden/ch 621.

Fatso's says at 11:25 AM that their TV guide shows the Spurs game "up next" at 12:00.

Bandera Rd, geez, half way to Mexico. what if I get lost? I don't speak Esapnol. I better take a gun or knife...

[Kori Ellis]

:) It's not that bad. The benches aren't that comfortable and the food isn't awesome, but the beer is cold and the tv's are good.

Have fun.

[Slomo]

Will any of you lucky @?*"#$$% be in the chatroom during the game? Maybe posting the score every so often? Pretty please?

[Kori Ellis]

Yes I will.
