Did they say in the news? I know they're showing the Texans vs Bucs pre-season game on K-EYER right now.

Sounds like Gary afraid of getting lynched. :mad:

[desihooper]

I wonder if it'll be blacked out here in Dallas?!?

I hope not, it'd be a waste of my Sunday Ticket if I couldn't watch the game :mad:

[macalu]

is the Dallas/Philly game still blacked out for H-town? i head Rich and Matt talking about it.

[Angkor Wat]

Yes! Monday Night game by default. Thats two for us. Lets hope they cash it in.

[justtxyank]

I had heard it on 1530, but now I don't think it's going to be televised here. I send an email to the KEYE programming director (who hates me because I give him hell everytime they televise the vytans over the Texans). I'm thinking of heading to Fast Eddies to watch the game.

Link please. I just read the story on espn.com and I didn't see any mention of it being aired on espn 2. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3582779

I live in the bay area and have Sunday ticket, so I hope it televised here on some channel.

I was listening to 1530 with Sean Adams and Chip Brown 30 minutes ago, and they said the game will be on CBS and NFL Network. They said this in their around the news, 30 minutes ago.

[rrj_gamz]

Oh hell, I thought it was going to be another double header game but it looks like its the same time as the Cowboys vs. Eagles game? Is that right?

[nWo34Life]

Yep.

I hope I can get a video feed from someone so I can watch it here in Dalass.

Roof panels damaged at Reliant.

Game likely to be postponed past Monday.

RAVENS-TEXANS IN NEW ORLEANS?
Posted by Michael David Smith on September 13, 2008, 2:40 p.m. EDT

We’re hearing from league sources that there are discussions going on today about moving this weekend’s Ravens-Texans game to Monday night at the Superdome in New Orleans.

The game was originally scheduled for Sunday afternoon in Houston but was rescheduled for Monday night because of Hurricane Ike. But after Ike damaged Reliant Stadium, the league is now scrambling to find a new venue for it.

The Superdome, of course, is home to the Saints, who were forced to play their whole 2005 season away from home as a result of Hurricane Katrina. The Saints play at Washington tomorrow. The Superdome’s event calendar says the stadium is hosting a Tulane football game today and another Tulane game on Thursday, but nothing Sunday through Wednesday.

The Houston Chronicle reports that if the damage to Reliant Stadium is so severe that the team can’t return later in the stadium, they could play their games at Rice Stadium on the campus of Rice University.

Also in the discussion is playing in ATL at the Falcons stadium.

Guess the both the league and teams and to try and still play the game. My guess is they will, only question is where?

I feel like a post whore right now.

My second sentence is really butchered. What I meant to say was that it looks like both the teams and the league want to try and continue to play this game. I'm not to sure about playing it now, maybe it's best to just take the bye week and wait til week ten, but I wouldn't be disappointed if they did played it this week.

sidenote: how can I get the power to edit? :o
