In Response To: Re: How the U.S. coverage of the Grand Final was held (Wisconsin Bomber)

Many of you are not alone feeling cheated out of coverage. This message has been placed on newsgroups, bigfooty.com, and this site. There are a lot of people who are disappointed with the frontloading of ad blocks. I have e-mailed the program director at Fox Sports World, but have yet to recieve a response. They have probably recieved so many responses that they are trying to think of a catchy mass e-mail response. For people who didn't see FSWD's coverage of the GF last year won't understand why we are angry. They was no fronloading of ads and match play was shown commercial free. It wouldn't make sense why they would do that this year. The Aussie Rules fan is treated badly here. It may get worse next year if the AFL switches to a different network in Australia (Seven is concidering dropping coverage, leaving Nine in perfect position to take over). Hang on, people. The ride may get worse from here.
