Mods, feel free to merge/move if needed. But considering that the article states they are planning it for a wild-card game, it could technically affect the Bills/broadcast of a Bills playoff game. But I thought it was kind of interesting. I actually think it's a great idea, honestly. I've been struggling to get my five year old to sit and watch a game with me to learn the game. I wonder if a more kid-centered broadcast would attract a younger generation of fans. Edited December 15, 2020 by CLTbills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorin' Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Are the announcers going to get Green Slim dumped on their heads anytime they say "I don't know?" I'd definitely watch the game on Nick if that's the case! 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t aloud to talk during a Bills game. The problem down here and probably other places is Tegna and my provider are in negotiations over CBS so I’m out. I’m switching if not fixed soon. I read the other day someone from another part of the country isn’t getting NBC with the same problem with Tegna. I can imagine everyone gets Nick so that is great news and again thank you for sharing this point. Very valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillies Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 "OK kids, on this play the great big guy on steroids (don't ever do drugs) just tried to rip the head off the QB (that's illegal, don't ever do illegal stuff). Oops, sorry you had to hear him say that to the refs. Remember, the words "F*** You!" are bad (don't ever cuss at people). And he just intercepted the ball and took it the other way (normally it's best to share, but not always). Ouch, that guy's leg just bent the wrong way. He's gonna need surgery now (but look at the bright side, they have ice cream in the hospital!). And the game's over and they lost by 6 (which sucks, cuz I had $100 on them to hang within 5. That's a bad beat boys and girls. Don't ever bet on sports). I need a beer.... I mean a juice." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 The *really* Inconvenient truth for Nickelodeon is that Dan Schneider really made them who they are today. The network has sagged since they cut ties with him. If it weren't for reliable SpongeBob, nobody would watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Roy, auto correct grammar police. My point was my dad never let us talk during a game until commercials.

machine gun kelly Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I thought as much bud. Dad’s old school Irish Catholic from the 1st Ward and then SB. I know a stereotype, but he fits it. He can tell a joke in a crowd off the cuff, can do a testimonial at the drop of a hat, and that old bird wants no talking except for him in his later years griping at the players. If it makes you giggle Roy, like old codgers, when I watch a game with him, he either wants to fine anyone who makes a mistake, bench them, or get rid of the refs. My answer is either silence, or yes, dad. Fathers, what are you going to do (and yes like I hope my kids say someday is still my hero). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be some kind of rating that is pulled in, based on the channel being on, in a home, and those kids being "forced" to watch football for a minute. It's a dart at the wall.

CBS is a channel listed as one you can watch online but when you try to watch game here it is not available "yet" but in meantime you can pay for CBS Access and CAN watch it. I doubt they will be making effort costing them money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
