Hi, is anyone else experiencing this and know why? Every single game thus far has been blacked out. I understand the Bills game being blacked out by why would the others?? I live I'm the Southern Tier of NY, Elmira-Corning area.

The Bills game this Friday will be on WETM in Elmira.   Not sure why the other two were blacked out but my guess is they might only be able to broadcast one game each week and maybe they chose to show one Giants game, one Steelers game and one Bills game.   It's not entirely Bills country once you leave Steuben County heading east.......there are a lot of douchebags who root for Giants and Steelers out there.

For instance I'm not getting the Eagles at Browns game right now, even though my Spectrum guides says I should. Every game is listed on guide but gets blacked out. Even when the regular season games were blacked out I was out of that area and would get the Bills games. Not a big deal, but it's just puzzling.

Either your cable provider is screwing up or the station you think is the NFL Network isn't the NFL Network.  What are they showing in place of the live games?  

 

Here in Albany we get local preseason broadcasts of Bills & Giants games & on NFL Network they show a different game.  A week ago they showed a tape of a prior game when the Bills game was on.  Yesterday, we got the live broadcast of the Colts vs Lions game while the Bills game was on the local Fox station.

The reason it was in the Binghamton area is because WBGH was SUPPOSED to be carrying the game but, instead, had soccer on for some dumb reason. That is why it was blacked on the NFL Network.

 

So....blame your local affiliate. Par for the course in this armpit called Binghamton.

  No it's the NFLN alright. They show old A Football Life shows the whole time a game is on. Yea either Spectrum is screwing up or the network is. Somehow because they blacked out the two bills broadcasts the last two weeks it's as if they just kept on the blacked out shows for EVERY preseason game.

I've been trying to "chat" with customer service for 15 minutes and one of the idiots told me I don't have nfl network on my lineup. That's good to know because I watch it almost every day. 

The computer that "runs" customer service got a ton of suggestions that you would see on a porn movie.  The last thing they said was have a nice day.
