PastaJoe Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 The CBS affiliate decided the Jets vs San Fran is the more attractive game. Last week the Bills weren't on FOX because they showed the Giants. The Bills play the Jets next week so that will be on, but after that they both play the last two games at the same time on CBS, so most likely they'll show the Jets for the rest of the season.

Arkady Renko Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 This is pretty extreme. I cannot remember the last time this happened when I was in that market. Almost always they waited until the Bills were out of it before showing an alternative game. In fact, that station shows the preseason games and at least in the past showed a special Bills show during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkady Renko Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 The506 still has WTVH showing the Bills and they still have a Bills section on their web site: http://www.wtvh.com/sports/bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 If you go to their programming page, they still show Buffalo/Miami at 4pm on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PearlHowardman Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 WTVH here in Syracuse is part of the Buffalo Bills broadcasting network. I'm pretty certain they show the Bills no matter what. You can get all the Syracuse University students from New Jersey to complain all they want but the Jets shouldn't be on television in Syracuse!!

You scared me! (This may be the last important game the Bills play for a while...) The Bills are on in Syracuse! They have always been on when the game is in on CBS, have been for years, no matter the caliber of the contest. And this is an important game for several reasons. Where did you get your bad information from?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a disgrace. If the Bills were an overachieving bad team and not a grossly underachieving decent team this would not have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PastaJoe Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 You scared me! (This may be the last important game the Bills play for a while...) The Bills are on in Syracuse! They have always been on when the game is in on CBS, have been for years, no matter the caliber of the contest. And this is an important game for several reasons. Where did you get your bad information from?? I know that they show the Bills on their website, but it was announced on two different radio stations Friday, including the local sports station, that WTVH announced they were switching to the Jets. I just looked at the program schedule on Time Warner cable, and it shows the Jets on at 4pm Sunday. They will still be on the radio, 1260am. I wish I was wrong, but I don't believe I am.

PearlHowardman Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Isn't Syracuse Jet and giant territory anyways. Only with the SU students. Syracuse area NFL fans definitely follow the Buffalo Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkady Renko Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 http://www.wtvh.com/sports/bills/35640644.html The Buffalo Bills game against Miami this Sunday will air on CBS-5. Wrong information was listed in Friday's edition of the Post Standard. The newspaper listed our game as Jets vs. San Francisco. That is incorrect. CBS has assigned us the Bills game against Miami in Toronto at 4:05PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PearlHowardman Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 So it's official: The Buffalo Bills vs. the Miami Dolphins at 4:05PM on WTVH in Syracuse! Looks as though Binghamton lucked out too with the Bills being broadcast there, too. GO BILLS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
