How come my Rockies aren't on TV tomorrow?

Is it because FOX shuts out all other games? Or is it because the Giants

SUCK

1. Your Rockies are 2 games behind the Giants

going into tonight. So if the Giants suck, what does that say about the Rockies?

2. You didn't answer my question.

The Rockies (since they were in the World Series very recently) should draw a bigger audience than the pitiful Giants.

But seriesly, why does Fox can all other Saturday afternoon games?

3. I don't like it either

Due to a deal with MLB, Fox has exclusive rights to games each Saturday until 7:00 PM EST. Which means, unless they see fit to cover your team, you're out of luck...and you know Fox, they're going to cover NY, Boston or someone they think might bring in the ratings.. I have MLB Extra Innings and the only time I can't see the Giants is on Saturday.

4. The Rockies don't deserve to be on television.

I'm starting to think the woeful Pittsburgh Pirates have a better organization.

But the bottom line is Colorado sucks.

5. I see that master of the backhanded compliment is back.

This coming from the guy who idolizes the York Family!
