Sorry guys - I never actually went and checked the game that was on HD Net.

Much to me surprise when I turned to the channel right now, its the **** CBI. God dammit TSN.

jsmith · Post #24 » by **jsmith** » Tue Mar 15, 2011 11:16 pm

man, why does TSN even bother. I wish they would just **** off and change their name to the Hockey/Curling network and leave basketball alone.

JN · Post #25 » by JN » Tue Mar 15, 2011 11:50 pm

I hate Sportsnet but they had the best coverage of the tourney -- when they could show different games on all their channels. It was sweet stuff.

Post #26 » by **LittleOzzy** » Wed Mar 16, 2011 1:18 am

First game in OT and TSN is missing out.

This would have been a perfect way for them to start the tournament!

JN · Post #27 » by JN » Wed Mar 16, 2011 1:32 am

I am a big golf fan, and a few years ago TSN was simulcasting one of the majors and the volume was cutting out about 90% of the time for about three hours.

I went on a golf message board and confirmed that the US broadcast had no sound issues. **** like that would never happen with hockey.

I sent a message to TSN to complain -- never heard back. So two weeks later, I let them know I was not happy and if this was hockey things would be different, and told them to take their hockey coverage and shove it up Gino Reda's ass. I'm not even sure if that makes sense but I was pissed.

If TSN decides to announce the exact games they are showing I will update the site, but for now I have the CBS games and the times that TSN and TSN2 will be starting coverage...
