    It can sometimes be damn hard work pulling for this team.

    Why was the audio feed not on the UNCC cable station?

    I couldn't hear the game so I was forced to drink.

    It IS hard being a 49er fan. I'll agree. The diehards are awesome fans, though. WFNZ really stuck it to us tonight not being able to establish the connection until 8 minutes left in the first half... Was the feed on the NTN-Channel 22? It's supposed to be, but since the school is on Holiday Break, they probably didn't "hook" it in.

    If anyone would like to donate to the TV fund, the game at URI would cost $23,000. Any takers?

    We televise three local games a year on the men's side and one on the women's side. C-USA syndicates 3-4 every year through the ESPN contract. Seven games, maybe eight.

    Donate your earnings for more TV games to:

    :D :p

    I listened to the final six minutes and OT on Channel 22. Can't get WFNZ where I live. I consider that a blessing, though.

    It is hard work because you cant hear us, see us or read about us. No wonder we get no community support. I'm sorry Real, this team is poorly marketed..and dont tell us to come up with $23,000, that is not our job.

    We are stuck with a 5000 watt AM station that can't even get our games on the air and when they do, no one can hear a fucking thing.

    Our handful of televised games have been reduced to public fucking access cable.

    Our coaches show was downgraded to a radio show and airs at a place that is so bad that we draw less than 5 fans per show.

    And we all know about our newspaper coverage.

    This is what makes this team hard to pull for, no one know what is going on.

    Real, I'll contribute. Can you get me into the production truck so I can direct the inspiration shots onto the TV screen?

    After tonight we'll never have to worry about not having an away game televised. I won't have to worry about working either. :D
