Rays - Phillies World Series will be great for Obama

[No Passaran]

Fox will preempt 30 minutes of one of those games for Obama's huge commercial Oct 29th. Huge audience in Florida.

1. MLB shouldn't have moved the game for Fox to sell advertising.

2. I think they only moved the start 10 or 15 minutes.

And that's IF there is a Game 6 (which, I am now officially rooting for... before tonight I wanted my Sox to take it in 4 again).

[RB TexLa]

4. They moved it 8 minutes.

8. wow....how toughtful.......

of you to want "your" sox to take it 4 again...oh, my... that is so good for the sport...great that you couldn't care less about the rest of baseball!!!! I am sooooooo glad that "your" sox are going home to soak their heads!!!!!

3. So they shouldn't have aired Obama?

[RB TexLa]

5. They shouldn't have moved the time for them to sell advertising to anyone.

[No Passaran]

6. You know how much money FOX dishes out to air World Series games?

If they want to move the time 15-30 minutes, already paying billions to air it, MLB should have no problem doing it.

[RB TexLa]

7. They pay to make millions. MLB should have told them "tough shit"

Who they wanted to sell the 30 minutes to doesn't matter.

9. While I do this...

:eyes:

You can go do this in the corner :cry:

Meanwhile - Obama will have a 30min slot to pitch to America why he should be the next president, while they wait for the game to start.

[RB TexLa]

10. Not crying just think they should not have giving in to Fox's demand so they could sell advertising.

12. You don't really *get* the MLB/broadcast relationship, do you?

Be honest in your answer.

11. I'm thinking it will actually piss off a lot of people

for the game to be delayed or pre-empted.
