Un-frackin-beLIEVable!

 

I was JUST now watching the replay on ESPN3, stepped outside to take the trash out to the truck as they were driving by, come back, and...

 

ESPN PULLED THE GAME FROM THE REPLAY LIST

 

My screen had nothing but an error page, when I reloaded the page, I got nothing but the SEC splash screen. Here's the link for proof.

 

http://espn.go.com/watchespn/player/_/id/1973105/size/condensed/

 

It's as if the game never happened. WTF ESPN??????

 

Apparently the SEC Network has rights to this game.

 

 

Like I said, I was in the middle of watching it when it got pulled. I saw Temple's first drive, then an error screen.

 

This isn't about TV rights, it's about embarassment!

 

I'm angry!

 

Thanks slick, for getting the word out.

 

 

Um, it is about TV rights.  If you go to WatchESPN for this game right now it says this is an SEC Network game.

 

I'm really at a loss trying to figure out what you are so upset about.

They are an SEC team. They play by their own rules.

i'm so glad there is a penalty for this   if there wasnt...   we'd bea wearing "The Team" on our backs. What an embarrassment that'd be. Probably 500 better options.

And we thought putting the jerseys out there was bad... At least we didn't play a game with them.

WTF? Can the AAC approve ours

Why would you want the AAC to approve our ridiculous idea? I hope they don't.

SEC network said the jersey was approved in April and later the commissioners met and decided against logos so what they presented was an email about their jerseys being ok, after they were told the contrast of the letters and jerseys weren't enough, they redid them, resubmitted and got an ok. But since then the rule changed. I think it's BS.

 

 

 

Its black on black so technically its not visible. 

 

That is the loop hole.

 

If we put white letters on a white jersey, or green letters on a green jersey then we could do it as well.

 

The fake names can't be visible.

 

 

One of you two is wrong. Any links to back up?

 

 

Names were "pre-approved" by the SEC, no loophole.  It'll be interesting to see if the NCAA weighs in.

If you watch SEC Network, it's copyrighted ESPN. I included all the major sports news outlets when I tweeted the game was pulled. Maybe someone will pick it up.

 

Just because ESPN produced the game does not mean they have broadcast rights on all platforms.

My bad. Not specific enough. I know they were pre-approved but just wanted to see some sort of timeline ...

I read somewhere that the email for pre-approval was from April.

What part of "I WAS ALREADY WATCHING THE GAME" did you not understand?

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
