So how about including the Griffins schedule with the monthly wallpaper?

It's still Red Wings related, so the backdrop theme shouldn't matter.  Maybe having a small logo and time for Griffins game in the upper left corner of the day box when they play.  You wouldn't really have to say if they are home or not, since it really doesn't matter that much.  Plus there is no TV channel, so that also saves room.  This way when they play on the same days, that upper left corner won't affect anything else.

Just something I'm sure people wouldn't mind knowing, since there seems to be a lot more discussion and interest with the Griffins lately.

As people said, the exact same thing last year with Dish Network.

What do people do, get angry and switch to someone else.  Then they see the same thing with their new provider a year or 2 later.
No matter who have, Directv, Dish Network, Comcast, Time Warner, AT&T, Verizon, Cablevision, Charter, Bright House, Wide Open West, etc., etc., etc....there will always be contract negotiations that never get done before the cut-off date.  Which pretty much only affects customers.  No company goes out of business or has layoffs, customer base just swings away from that company temporarily until the next round of negotiations comes around for a different company.

It's never really the providers faults, the networks/broadcasters demand a crap ton more money from the providers, which is always, ALWAYS gets passed on to the customer.  It how it was with Fox and Dish Network last year, as well as NBC/Comcast (Versus) with Directv the last time too.  Those channels eventually come back to the provider, just the customers have to wait around for one of the companies to give in....no matter who gives in, the customer ends up paying more for their subscription (not right away, but eventually).

There is always 2 sides, and customers get stuck in the middle, having to decide who they favor.  Really whoever persuades you first, customers are kind of like sheep....we'll follow one shepherd or the other.

What can you do?  Follow who you want, switch, wait, complain to get some free stuff (it works).  Unless there is some kind of government intervention for rules on how these media negotiations are handled, we'll see the same thing again next year with another provider & broadcaster.

Just fyi, since I'm like the first one to say something in the GDT.  I have Griffins archives now along with live stuff  

GCL works on many things now.  All you really need is internet and something that access the internet.
computer, console, htpc/media center boxes, smartphones, tablets (computer/smartphone), I believe even some smart tvs have the ability to get it.

Hi Everybody!

Cool, when and where?

I unfortunately have to go to bed.  I would love to see it at some point though.  I would appreciate it.

On now, where I always have games

I'm gonna stream it again....although it lost the 3rd period thanks to the people running the online broadcast.

Anyone interested in re-watching this?

It looks like FSD added a preseason games from what was released with their broadcast schedule last week (9/28 vs Chicago)

I think getting punched in the head hundreds of times with bare knuckles and the cumulative effect it has on the brain is more at play here, but that's just my opinion.

The Chris Benoit "effect"?

If I wasn't accident prone while growing up.

I'm not going to post specifics publicly.

  

I'll be showing games on my site more frequently now.  Only for people who have already registered (sorry).

If you are registered on my site, log in.


It will be pretty inconsistent coverage for a good while.
