Navy game to be televised

[OR-See-Nee]

According to the Washington Post:

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/mids-insider/2009/09/masn_to_broadcast_navy-smu_on.html

MASN will broadcast the Navy-Southern Methodist game on Oct. 17, starting at 8 p.m. Time Warner in Dallas will be televising the game, with C.J. Martin and Bruce Wiseman calling the action from Gerald J. Ford Stadium.

This means that the remainder of Navy's games will all be televised, with the majority appearing on CBS College Sports at 3:30 p.m. NBC will broadcast the Notre Dame game (Nov. 7, 2:30 p.m.), ESPNU has the Hawaii game (Nov. 28, 10:30 p.m.) and CBS has the Army-Navy game (Dec. 12, 2:30 p.m.).

On the radio side, our game will once again be moved over to 570 AM since the Ticket will have Stars on that night too.

BTW, I will be at the game, bringing 3 other people. This post is in the nature of a public service announcement for those who cannot make the game for some reason.

Can someone tell me or remind me what MASN stands for. Thanks.

It also means it can be DVR'ed locally on Direct TV if you have the sports package. As last weekend, MASN picks up the Times Warner Metro TV feed. Metro shows the game on a delayed basis in Dallas but the MASN presentation is live.

Since the Metro Sports broadcast is pretty amateur, I'm curious what ECU fans thought last week listening to those announcers. Maybe this is a regular thing and they're used to hearing the other team's broadcast, but it probably didn't help in addition to losing.
It's certainly better than nothing, but not the greatest in quality!

What channel on DirecTV?

640. I'm going to try to find a bar that actually carries it this time

Be sure they also carry Jack Daniels or Johnny Walker.

FYI -- I do not have a sports package with DirecTV and was able to record/watch the ECU game on 640 -- Im in Dallas.

Good Luck.

What channel on Time Warner?

I do not know but it will be on Dallas TW Metro TV, I believe on Monday. This is a Times Warner production that is only shown live in central and south Texas on Times Warner Cable. MASN picks up the Metro feed and shows it live.

Hope he doesn't wreck this network like he wrecked the Orioles -- a once-proud organization now pretty much a laughingstock.

Back to topic: So I guess that means we have 5 games televised this year?
