Well, I am glad to know where I stand with you. For the rest UoR fandom I read your boards because I find them enjoyable and informative. I thought the kid was speaking out of turn and said as much. Pretty sure he and I ended up on the same page. Have a good evening.

I can appreciate the hustle from our athletic department after the CAA dropped the ball on this TV deal and hope everyone else does too.
I realize us die-hards would prefer road games be on TV but (A) we are giving our players and university exposure and that's what this is really all about and (B) Bob and Chris are a good listen when doing some yard work. Also (C), these road games are doable. I'm planning to be at all 4 of the road CAA games so it's not a big deal to me.
And here's the press release:

i'm guessing JMU is working a similar deal since there is still no word on the broadcasting of our game up there.
JMU AD's statement alongside the CAA release basically said that was all there would be this year, and they're going all in on their own streaming service. Duke fans are up in arms.

Hey, FRS you need to read this Dillweed thread. They are in agony over our TV deal. Out smarted and out classed...yet again! But let's be humble, neither is a difficult task.
this shows you that outside the JMU UR diehards, there is no market for 1-aa football.
in the college football world, the rich get richer and everyone else has scraps. It is great that the AD put together the home package. If JMU thinks the tv package is bad now, wait until they go somewhere else and have to play on Tuesday nights to get on Tv.

(A) I don't give a crap about school exposure, I'm selfish, this is all about ME, and I want to watch my Spiders!!
(B) I've been doing yard work all summer, I'm SICK of yard work.
(C) Last time I went to all the road games, we lost ALL of them....
Well, I guess the discussion is pretty much settled here.
