Blazers game on TV

I do not know if it was Channel 8, the satellite people or what. The last 8 minutes of the Blazers game really sucked. What the heck was up with the video? See this is what happens when you hire ADA people. And to clarify, I am not talking about our fine citizen’s with disabilities. I mean Another Dumb Aspirin. I did not even see that last minute. All I saw was the Blazers win! So at least that was good. Oh and thank you very much for fixing the video right after the game ENDED!

I had the same problem with our cable so it must have been KGW. Of course the problem dissappeared right after the game!

Yup, had the same problem.
Thought my TV was the issue, but other channels were working fine.

Glad to hear I wasn't the only one dealing with this.

Ya funny how it got worse at the end of the game,,,and now its all cleared up. I wonder if it was a sabatoge from comcast or something...was very irratating though...expecially after watching the whole game....

I'm a bit annoyed to say the least. It's like watching a movie but not getting to see how it ends. Oh well.

greenbuttskunk · 11-08-2008, 09:18 PM

yep, frustrated the heck out of me too!

wootersen · 11-08-2008, 09:19 PM

Same Here, spent the last 8 minutes of the game jiggling the cables behind the TV and cussing.

jmg · 11-08-2008, 09:19 PM

I agree what a pain in the ...! I flipped on the radio here at work and was able to hear Wheels call the end of the game.

bassfishingnw · 11-08-2008, 09:55 PM

Same here!! 95.5 SAVED THE NIGHT!!

Comcast has us and the Blazers HOSTAGE!

My wife was pretty upset about it too....I noticed that there were some problems with FSN yesterday during the Beavers Football game??

Could it have been weather related?? some pretty good showers were around yesterday.

BTW, there were alot of empty seats at the Rose Garden last night....catch a game....it's a great show !

I wonder how many TV's got a boot or beer can through them last night. I considered it but (for once) controlled my emotions.

That really sucked.

THAT is for sure!!! I've yet to be at a Blazer game that wasn't fun to watch at sometime. And that place never fails to rock!!

I knew it wasn't the TV cause hubby was watching upstairs, I was watching downstairs (he likes to flip between football and the Blazers...drives me nuts!) but I could hear (or not hear) the same going on his TV. I couldn't believe...broadcast trouble in the last few minutes.

I'm thinking we have to send a "fan audio" with those kids on the road...They win for us here in "our house"...

They looked/played/acted tired in the first half tho...pretty flat. I fell asleep in the 3rd!!! lol

I like the commercial for getting comcast Blazer package with the TV going fritz 5 mins right before it really did it. And the signal drop out look like feed issues to public feed and looked mechanicaly connection induced. hmmmm fishy

BugSquasher · 11-09-2008, 09:55 AM

same problem .. I have directTV ... last 5-8 minutes were crap. I would like to have an explanation from channel 8. Perfect the whole game up to that point.

Gundog · 11-09-2008, 01:33 PM

I agree I was um vocalizing at the TV and the dog just looked at me gee I wonder what she was thinking. At least they won though so I was happy about that.

Dave G · 11-09-2008, 03:06 PM

I think Chasnnel 8 owes us some money. Anyone for a class action lawsuit?

greenbuttskunk · 11-09-2008, 05:24 PM

KATU had a video feed issue and realized it was happening. as of sunday am they had not figured out what caused it yet. It was mentioned in the oregonion article about the latest blazer win.
