Fucking cable provider

[Tomhusker]

Second week in a row where the cable company takes too damn long on commercial breaks. This time I missed the first 2 plays of Nebraska's first possession. Last week I don't think I saw a single "First" play of any drive.

That includes kick-offs/returns after commercial breaks too.

I missed them too and I'm with Cox.

Probably a BTN thing.

Ugh, something for me to look forward to when I watch the game. Bad BTN.

At the soiree last night I found two other Nebraska fans and I was keeping them updated. They appreciated the updates. As I was updating other people would ask questions of their teams, the Notre Dame fans did not appreciate the updates.

Just watched my recording.

I will have to say it is your cable provider. I watched all plays.

I would say since you live in Nebraska, the Nebraska cable providers are able to sell more local advertising for a Nebraska game than my cable provider in Big 10 heartland is.

I watched the DVR of the Wyoming game and didn't notice it.

Yesterday I had the same issue as Tom, missing the first two NU plays after half.

Could be coincidence.

I have Dish, i didn't miss any plays.

That's kind of what I was thinking. It seems that the local commercials are the ones that put the break over the time limit. I'm gonna call them tomorrow and find out if this will be an ongoing issue or if I am a Direct TV customer again.

I have DirecTV and didn't have any issues with commercial breaks running long....

You and RA must have the same cable provider....

Call them up and bitch, you might get some credits at least....

Directv here in KC, no issue with BTN
