Clarkson gets a cable deal and we get CornellPass....  How will we ever compete?  :-D

LOL!! ::laugh::

That article says the games will be broadcast on "the cable station." I read the thing a few times and couldn't find anything more specific. "Greater Syracuse area" includes us, at least from Time Warner's perspective. Anyone know what channel they're talking about? Will we get it?

I was planning on going up to the north country for those games, but it's looking as though I'll be in California instead. (Anyone out there want to get together to listen to Sunday night's game?)

It appears from http://www.clarkson.edu/athletics/hockey/news.html#dec4 that channel 77 in Ithaca/Tompkins County will carry the games.

I'll probably still drive up, since I won't be able to get the games on TV here in NYC.

Would someone who speaks to Laura Stange see if she can get the satellite coordinates of the feed for the game.  Feeds from Lynah have always been in the clear, and if this one is, then anyone in the northeast with a big dish should be able to listen.

If you don't have a big satellite dish, just walk in to your nearest cable head-end and ask them to point one of theirs to your feed.::rolleyes::

Seriously, If it is in the clear, then many sports bars will be able to get it for you.

Ooh, maybe I won't have to drive up, then.

Hmmm, I wonder if there are enough of us in the NYC area that we could convince a sports bar in Manhattan to put the game on for us.

[Beeeej]

The Riviera on 7th Ave. at W. 4th St. has told me many times that as long as I let them know in advance or show up relatively early, they'll put any sporting event on for me that I want, no matter how obscure.  One friend and I watched Cornell vs. Hahvahd football there, despite much larger crowds wanting to watch other games (it's first come, first served).

Really, how tough could it be on a Sunday evening during the NFL post-season (i.e., no 8pm game) to get one TV out of thirty, especially if, say, we show up at 6:30 and start ordering beer and food?  :-D

In fact I'll probably try to let the NY Metro Office people know so they can spread the word... ifwe find out the satellite feed is in the open.

and you make me wonder if there's enough people in the DC area to do this...

between cornell and clarkson fans, there should be enough of us to take over a bar...and it would make for an interesting evening!

I'm in for an NYC gathering.  I watched Jordan's double-nickel comeback game at Riviera.  Not good times. :-(

Micaela and I might be willing to take MetroNorth down to meet up with youse guys. Game is Sat and not Sunday, yes?

[DeltaOne81]

Actually the Clarkson game is Sunday.

[Beeeej]

The word came from Laura today that "there are no satellite options" for watching the game; only the Time-Warner cable stations already mentioned will carry it.

They're getting it from somewhere. :-) Sounds as though we need to ask one of the cable providers. I'll give it a shot here.
