downsouthfalconsman Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 me 2 --- but for how long? yeah, i knowit seems kinda messed up that someone 3 hours from atlanta can see the game, but someone in atlanta cannot? i guess it's the nfl's way of encouraging locals around a city to start attending games?

IonSen88 Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 right now 72 miles awayit might be even more than 72 miles. i think if your only fox affiliate is fox5 waga atlanta, you won't get it even if you're 80 miles away. thankfully for us though, we're hundreds of miles away and get our local fox affiliate and atlanta's fox affiliate (atleast i do)!
