Falconsfan567 Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 If you're in Cullman, you should be less than about 40 miles or so straight distance from the WZDX-FOX54 (Channel 54) transmitter in Huntsville, AL. I'm fairly sure they will be carrying the Falcons-Cowboys game. A good antenna should carry you through.Huntsville is 55 miles away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconsfan567 Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 Hopefully there's a Beef O'Brady's (not owned by the same people that own the two here) close by. Decent food, and all the games. Not a fan of Buffalo Wild Wings.I've graduated to a locally owned and operated sports bar that completely rocks. It's called Hero's Bar and Grill.They're in the process of building a Buffalo Wild Wings here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slider Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 But it doesn't work that way with the NFL. If the Saints on on the local channel then just flip over to the NFL Sunday Ticket channel. It doesn't matter where you live. I had it for a couple of years and never missed a Falcons game.It's not the same as the MLB.tv thing.Are you in the Falcons local tv market?

Falconsfan567 Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 Are you in the Falcons local tv market?You and I both live in the Birmingham tv market. I had NFL Sunday Ticket. When the Falcons weren't on the local FOX channel I could just flip over to the NFL Sunday Ticket and watch the game. Had it for 2008. Never missed a game. The NFL's blackout rules are different from MLB's. I had MLB.tv this year and could not watch the Braves games live because I'm in the Braves tv market. But did not have that problem with Sunday Ticket because NFL's blackout rules are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffro2000 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Are you in the Falcons local tv market?You would be fine. If the Saints are on your local Fox affiliate then they will be blacked out on the DirecTV Sunday ticket channels. Same thing with whatever game is on CBS. As long as the Falcons aren't on a local Fox/CBS station you will be able to watch them through Sunday Ticket.It won't matter if you technically live in a Falcon market but the game still isn't on locally..

Atlantafan21 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Only way I get to watch a Falcon game is if it's prime time or against an NFC North opponent(mainly Vikings or packers). In your situation it's definitely stupid that they're not showing the game for the reasons I stated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My neighborhood sits in a valley and DirecTv doesn't work very well here. Most of my neighbors had it and gave it up. I have ATT Uverse (which now owns directv but has no intention of carrying sunday ticket) and I'm pretty pleased with it. I also went to the internet site for directtv and put in my area code and got rejected. Oh well... there's a Beef O'Brady's a half mile away. I still think we should direct letters to the league office and A.B. I'd love to see the league come down hard on this Saint loving TV network and end this once and for all!

Falcon Freddie Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Unless the Titans happen to be playing an NFC team and they decide to put that one on FOX.In Week 3 the Titans are playing at home against the Colts. That game will be on Huntsville's CBS station, so I'd say it's almost a certainty Huntsville's FOX station will show the Falcons-Cowboys game. So, our Cullman friend should be good to go.

CrimsonFalcon Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 They're in the process of building a Buffalo Wild Wings here.Maybe it won't be like ours here and drown out everything with the local game (Stains in this case) and a constant roar of people where you can't hear and servers walking right past you for no reason. Went one time, wont go back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slider Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 (edited) I sympathize with all those people in other team's markets that can't get the Falcons games but I can understand why the Saints are shown in Mobile since it's firmly in their market, I do sympathize but we here in Birmingham are in the Falcons tv market and our local channel chooses not to show the Falcons. That doesn't sound like it would be within the NFL guidelines for broadcast rights. Not sure who to email or call at the league office but I have a phone number that I will call and try to work my way to the right folks.Update: have to try tomorrow, got a recording of office hours!

Carl927 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 The Saints would be much more fun to watch if the network added a laugh track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliFalconFan02 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 PSA it says on the website that it is only for 4 year schools but it also allows some community colleges so it may be available to more than you think.Oh boy, I am so tempted to drop some cash for this. I'm a college student so I'd get the $99 deal. Very very tempting. I just got it, it allows you to pay in 4 payments of $25 to spread it out a little more. Do you already have a chromecast as well? I just chromecast it right onto my TV. Very worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
