Thanks for your support!

Thanks,

Yeah... two straight Hail Marys. The first one was a bit over thrown (with the way the refs were "seeing" today, I was surprised PI wasn't called).Same here....venting in tailgate section.
I streamed 610 through iTunes real quick.
Basically 2 dropped passes by ATL to end it.
Matt Ryan throws a pass to the back corner of the end zone. A Falcons WR posts up and leaps for it...but it's behind him. Jonathan Joseph on the coverage. Joseph was behind the WR, and was blocked out by the WR. Had Ryan got the ball down a bit, or had the WR gone further into the corner of the end zone and posted up THEN...I think it's a TD for the Falcons.Can someone take me through the final 0:08 v Falcons?

LOL, I don't even live there but I threw in some good jabs on that thread:
Live a little, myFOXaustin....for one time, just stand up for YOUR viewers and go against the grain for a change. 8 seconds means two plays, and NO timeouts. You guys think you would have lost your affiliate had you stayed the extra 2 minutes it took to show the end of the game? Rules, rules, rules, huh? Screw the working man who wanted to see the end of the game. No, be VERY afraid of some geek up at Fox Headquarters.
Damn, they are getting ruthless.
Did you see mine? LOL, it's fun to just to throw a Molotov Cocktail like that...chuck and duck, then run off. LOL.Damn, they are getting ruthless.
Good stuff!Did you see mine? LOL, it's fun to just to throw a Molotov Cocktail like that...chuck and duck, then run off. LOL.
So, a team that is 3 1/2 hours away instead of a winning team that is 2 1/2 hours away is considered the home team market?? That is the whole problem with Austin! Fox TV Austin will not be my channel to watch from now along with many Texan fans! BOYCOTT FOX-TV AUSTIN!! In two weeks I will be watching the Texans game at Third Base - Southpark Meadows for any Texans fans interested in joining me rooting for the Winning Team in Texas, the Texans!!! NO MORE FOX AUSTIN..........BOYCOTT THE PATHETIC COWGIRLS LOVERS!!!
yeah the ball was already coming out right there. its like julio swatted his own ball down. Good pic shows poor coverage on a slow developing play by Kjac.[/IMG]
Actually he had control there, then KJ pulled his arm down by his bicepyeah the ball was already coming out right there. its like julio swatted his own ball down. Good pic shows poor coverage on a slow developing play by Kjac.
I dunno about that, man. It's on there, but I don't think I recall anything other than the ball glancing off the dude's two hands. Like a ricochet bullet.Actually he had control there, then KJ pulled his arm down by his bicep
no he didnt. a pic shows nothing watch that play in slow motion and julio just drops it, KJ pulled his arm down but the ball was already on the ground by that time.Actually he had control there, then KJ pulled his arm down by his bicep

confirms, Kjac had no impact, Julio swatted his own pass out of his hands, and KJac had terrible coverage.
I am not a kj defender but i watch the play over and over and it seems like kj made a play there he place his hand in between arms affected the catch attempt without getting a flag. What more do you want right there.
Right? STFU bout 1 play while he played great the whole game. Enjoy the win 9-3... and still the Texans win.
Can't believe you brought out the working man!Screw the working man who wanted to see the end of the game.
LOL......i saw yours...check ut the ones i threw em on the tailgate sectionDid you see mine? LOL, it's fun to just to throw a Molotov Cocktail like that...chuck and duck, then run off. LOL.
LOL, Heck yeah!Can't believe you brought out the working man!
I look at it as they had back to back chances to tie the game up.Matt Ryan throws a pass to the back corner of the end zone. A Falcons WR posts up and leaps for it...but it's behind him. Jonathan Joseph on the coverage. Joseph was behind the WR, and was blocked out by the WR. Had Ryan got the ball down a bit, or had the WR gone further into the corner of the end zone and posted up THEN...I think it's a TD for the Falcons.
Clock stops at :01. One last play.
Ryan throws it to the completely other side of the field, again to the corner of the end zone, and this time it's Julio Jones. Kareem Jackson had turned around, but hell he was practically WATCHING the ball come down like the rest of the stadium was (except THEY are in the crowd and cans only watch, not play like KJ is). The ball hits Julio Jones right in both of his hands and it bounces off as he starts coming back down to the ground. KJ flails away but my goodness it would have been too late.
Game over.
IMO, and I don't want any of you guys out there hating on me for this...the Falcons had two back-to-back chances to win the game if White and Ryan had connected on the next to last play. And Julio Jones dropped a TD on the last play. He just dropped it, plain and simple.
A nail biter that I thought was going to be over after Ryan/White failed to hook up on the next to last play.
You live in Dallas, LOL.I was so ticked off when they changed games on me here.
But I'll take the W!
And now I know who's ass to kick... thank you sirSincerely, Hector Ledesma KABB Sports Anchor
In response to the bolded, those fans can still STFU....bottom line....you will not miss a game changing/game ending play by the time the ATL-HOU game ends and the Dallas game is joined in progress. BY the time the game is joined for Dallas, it would still be 1st Q most likely.Thanks for taking the time to write. We are sorry with what happened regarding the Texans game today on Fox. Here is the scenario as best I understand and can explain it. Earlier in the week, as is the case every week during the NFL season, our programming department had to choose which one of the two games in our doubleheader would run with no interruptions. If we chose the 3:00 game, then coverage of that game would start at 3:10 no matter the circumstances and no matter where in the broadcast the 3:00 game would be. The option we're given is that cut and dry. That is why viewers were taken away from a final second situation for the Texans and taken to commercials before the Cowboy game. I have a feeling your response is that not everyone here is a Cowboy fan, and you're absolutely right. But several of the emails we've received today mentioned customer dissatisfaction and viewer's rights. Unfortunately for Texans fans and non-Cowboy fans, Cowboy fans far outnumber fans of other teams in this market. And so when aiming to please the majority of our customers (in this case our viewers), we have to consider what most of our viewers want. It's a decision every business, organization. etc. has to make and you know the old saying about never being able to please everyone. To put it another way...specifically, in this case, let's say we had chosen earlier in the week to tell Fox to air the Texans game in its entirety and join the Cowboys game in progress. What if the Texans game had gone long and into overtime, can you imagine the response we would've received from the loads and loads of Cowboy fans here had we joined that game late? The Houston game actually almost went into overtime and I'm speaking from hindsight, a luxury our programming dept does not have early in the week. Again, sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for writing.

THe reply I got
FINALLY someone at one of these affiliates is starting to tell the real story instead of simply blaming the NFL. SA and Austin are *not* secondary markets so they have to opt IN to being allowed to cut away from the early game at 3:10.Earlier in the week, as is the case every week during the NFL season, our programming department had to choose which one of the two games in our doubleheader would run with no interruptions.

& there are only a handful of plays we can "complain" about Kj... and the Texans win.
Yeah. I've never understood about the need to leave a game where the outcome is in the air in the final seconds, so people won't miss an opening kickoff. That just doesn't make any sense.In response to the bolded, those fans can still STFU....bottom line....you will not miss a game changing/game ending play by the time the ATL-HOU game ends and the Dallas game is joined in progress. BY the time the game is joined for Dallas, it would still be 1st Q most likely.
Also, I have seen plenty of early games go late and the moment they end if they are close, the viewer is taken to the late game in progess....meaning they did not HAVE to cut away at 3:10 for commercials. Load of fuqng bull shite!
If you had time since you already have a thread with them going via email, I would ask that...see what half cocked BS they come up with then.....I work in marketing and promotions so I can see their strategy here and it is full of holes....very weak.
