The Dean Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Same here. And NFL.com was on top of the score, but WAY behind on the play by play. Very bizarre. Thankfully it's the preseason. And that means the preseason for everyone: players, coaches, refs, production crews, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Is it true they call them terrible towels because they wipe their butts with them, pass them down in Their families and never wash them and so they smell terrible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 70's NBC cut away from what turned out to be an amazing Raiders late comeback to a movie (?) called "Heidi" , creating the NFL legend called the "Heidi" game. big sh_t show at the time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 (edited) 12 minutes ago, Watkins90 said: What's "Heidi" in reference too? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heidi_Game Quote The Heidi Game or Heidi Bowl is the name given to a 1968 American Football League (AFL) game between the Oakland Raiders and the visiting New York Jets. The contest, held on November 17, 1968, was notable for its exciting finish, in which Oakland scored two touchdowns in the final minute to win the game 43–32.[1][2] However, a decision by the game's television broadcaster NBC to break away from its coverage on the East Coast to broadcast the television film Heidi caused many viewers to miss the Raiders' comeback. 30 minutes ago, Big Turk said: NFL promised it would never happen again...apparently they do what they want on their own networks. Quote In the aftermath of the incident, NBC installed special "Heidi phones", with a connection to a different telephone exchange from other network phones, to ensure that network personnel could communicate under similar circumstances. The game also had an influence on sports broadcasting practices; the future National Football League would contractually stipulate that all game telecasts be shown to their conclusion in the markets of the visiting team, while other major leagues and events adopted similar mandates. In 1997, the Heidi Game was voted the most memorable regular season game in professional football history.

Let's Go Buffalo Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Yep, I started yelling all sorts of things at the t.v., and then it came back to the Bills game. I was thinking the same thing about the Heidi game.....I'm getting old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
