The 3rd Annual "F*ck TSN" Thread

[Awax]

I'm glad that I have RDS as a backup. TSN f*ckin blows now.

 

[Awax]

Oh wow, RDS are showing their retarded curling, even if the CL game was planned on their schedule.

Awesome

 

[ninobomba]

thats why you got internet streaming

 

[bigp]

They are showing the games on the Sports Preview Channel. Ch. 401 for Rogers in Toronto.

They'll show the Bayern v Real match in the regular time on that channel.

And TSN ***in sucks and they will probably have the CL rights forever because they are bed buddies with ESPN.

Exactly. Finding links for the match you want to watch is easy nowadays if you're having trouble finding it on TV

 

[::shinji::]

true, but that's not the point here..

Besides, I think watching a game on a 40" screen in the comfort of your living room is a bit more enjoyable than through a streaming video on a computer screen.

EDIT: It also has more to do with the fact that TSN has a history of scrapping soccer for things like curling, you'd have to be a soccer fan in Canada to understand..

For internet peoples download tvu player, it got few soccer channels and i watched most games in there.

i know im late but it gave the liverpool-barca game today on channel 204 ( if you have the rogers digital cable box) hopefully they show another game tommorow~!

 

[ZZbatam]

It's that time of year again. any Canadians/Bulgarians who would like to rant over TSN's continuing stupidity in deciding to show Curling over Champions League football. well actually dont get me wrong, they do show games taped at 3:30am once in a while (since it's my reading week I'm staying up to watch Milan-Celtic tonight)


but back to the point:

FCUK YOU TSN

I know how you feel!!! The people of whole Europe where watching ******* snooker for 4 hours just to see 40 minutes long coverage of Dakad rally 2007 after that (on ****eaters EUROSPORT). All people of europe was mad about that! What was the "BEST" - faggot comentators was telling "HOW EXCITING THIS ******* SNOOKER GAME WAS!!!!!!!!!!" I was ready to trow my TV out of the window!!!!

 

[Help?]

i know im late but it gave the liverpool-barca game today on channel 204 ( if you have the rogers digital cable box) hopefully they show another game tommorow~!

Yeah, thanks for that! Bayern-Real tomorrow live at 2:30 ET

better late than never man, thanks..

 

[coach]

Thanks Moreira!

Now, I can watch Champions League without having to learn Cantonese.

 

[night]

Thanks Moreira!

Now, I can watch Champions League without having to learn Cantonese.

Haha I know what you mean. Those commentators are so annoying which is explains why I desperately search for channels with English commentators (other than that ESPN douchebag obviously, what's his name again?)

 

[rony31]

thanks for the tip, Moreira

TSN is nothing compared to ESPN. Atleast football/soccer is treated with respect/seriously in Canada when they show it on one of the top 3 networks (especially the score, where they're extremely football friendly). <<It's something we take for granted and even still criticize. I couldnt believe that before the 2006 World Cup, football was even more bashed than they do in the states. (in live media).>>

But ESPN? I heard from someone that they actually act like assholes on purpose to get ratings and angry letters. They really dont care, it's just business to them.

IE: Yesturday Liverpool qualified over Barcelona, and both ESPN2 guys (the white guy and the asian guy) were just sitting there laughing about how stupid the "away goal" rule is.

"So why did that red team go through?"
"Well this odd thing called the away goal"
"Ooooooooooooooooooooooohhhh........*cracks up*"

What a bunch of douche bags.

 

[Help?]

Just the heads up for all you canadians out there. Sports Preview Channel, which is one on 401, one in late 80's or 90's and i even think its also on channel 1, anyways whatever you have for the Sports Preview Channel, they will be showing Milan - Bayern LIVE tomorrow at 2:30 pm and Roma - United LIVE Wednesday at 2:30 pm.

Again, thanks for the great find to Moreira_Benfica.

 

[Moreira_Benfica]

yea


Channel 204 (rogers digital cable) Milan-Bayern

If you wanna see CL live or whatever other match in whatever other league and you live in Canada and don&#8217;t have American satellite then you can go to myp2p.eu and watch it for free (just follow the instructions, you just have to download a program like sopcast or TV Ants) and then click on the link to the game.

Anyways, funny thing about curling. I had a field trip today (for physics class) where we got to curling on the same day as the CL match. Because of this friggin field trip, I got a head ache (because the temperature in the rink was more freezing than usual none of us were dressed warmly) and I got home late so I didn&#8217;t get to watch the whole CL match. So I&#8217;m pretty much hating curling right now. It&#8217;s like chess on ice; useless. Sorry for the rant by the way.
