Sports journalism is the biggest scam. The Niners scored 2 fewer offensive points aka the same, but is anyone talking about how their offense is "legit"?

I thought we were supposed to be mortified of the offensive lineman apocalypse. :jerkbag:

I grew up in Northeast PA this time frame. We got all the Braves games on TBS, all the Mets games on WWOR, and all the Yankees games on WPIX. I never ever saw the Phillies because they were poo poo and never on national broadcast, and their games were all on PRISM, a premium up channel (along with the Flyers and Sixers). My dad listened to them on the radio instead of paying for the channel.

it's blacked out in the Indianapolis area entirely, yes

You'd occasionally get a game on WPHL (or WOLF if you far enough North). PRISM was real interesting because it was Microwave based, not satellite; when CSN Philly took over, they used the Microwave transmitter and stayed off Direct TV/Dish for years. How everyone forgets SportsChannel...

He's from my area, so the newspaper here tried to go in depth about his disease. He's been hospitalized for "increased lung pressure", which I'm thinking they mean pulmonary hypertension. Maybe it's a restrictive lung diseases, but I read this information forth-hand at best given the crappy writing. He's currently waiting for a heart transplant, which is its own random process.

I usually only watch sports passively, but I'm managing 3 bars and I have to stay on top of the listings and schedules. I'm finding it difficult to quickly google things like "directv channel Celtics game" while drunks are yelling at me. The directv website has it listed as being on channel 218, but it's actually on 630.
So my questions are 1: Is there a resource that has reliable, location-specific TV listings that tell you what network is broadcasting a specific game? If I knew tonight's Celtics game was on CSNE or NBCSports I could just look the channel number up on directv. But that information is impossible to look up online - it's not on the NBA site, the directv site, or in the first few pages of Google results.
And 2: why is it like this? How is this so goddamn obtuse? And what obvious thing am I missing? I get that I need information about the NBA, NFL, nhl, mlb, pay per view fights, races and college sports, across multiple competing broadcasters, but wouldn't they all benefit with clear information at some central neutral site? A wikipedia for TV listings?
Please help.

The local newspaper sports section should still have the TV listings. That should at least get you the big four.

Quoting from a while back, the voice gets muffled because it's a pretty simplistic (and lossy) encoding, so a lot of quality gets lost. Usually it's coming from weather offices or police stations, where they don't tend to spend a lot of money as well for high end audio equipment for that.

The grating beeps are actually filled with data. The longer beeps at the start are the actual message, and if it has an audio component, then you get the two tones right after them, then the message. The beeps at the end are the end of message signal.

It's not too much to return afternoon weekdays to that as opposed to stuffy talking heads saying things.
