I applaud CBS for allowing you to watch any game this year with no blackouts as far as I can tell so far. This is the future of sports watching that I want. And your next TV should have at least 1 computer input to allow you split screen the NCAA tournament :).

of all the programmers in the world, i probably hate technology the most. i despise trying to make **** work that should already be done right in the first place. like the basketball games all being shown. total viewers would be higher, the free market should sort that out itself. so, i have to assume some corrupt bargaining is screwing us, the consumer, over royally.

i do! and thank god for that. in past years, living on the east coast, i wanted to shoot myself in the face watching the **** they played over UK :O as a result, i absolutely despise all of the acc and big east teams. except pitt. and maybe nc state a little, just because many of their fans really hate duke and unc and i am totally down with that. oh yeah, and some of the new big east teams that aren't really big east teams.

I hear you, but come on - if UK's up 40 in the second half of a round 1 game and you've got 3 more compelling games on at the same time, do you really want to keep watching the beatdown?

no. cant argue with you there, that was a bit ridiculous. that goes back to the title of the thread :)

Yesterday was awesome when they cut away from the last minutes of the UW-Marquette game to see the tip off of some other game. That was a good decision on CBS' part.

There is actually a really fantastic, full-on solution: it's called a bar. Some of them even have adult beverages and scantily clad women who'll serve them to you.

(I'm assuming by the uncharacteristically angry, expletive-filled nature of your posts that you've been drinking anyway, making my revolutionary suggestion even more sensible.)

Ive used yahoo sports for all the games so far. Havent even used my TV because theyve been playing crappy games.

Online at cbs is the only way to go...

Not only to you get all the games...flipping through them is simple and easy...have not missed a single second of last minute action in the last 4 years...all the close games I've seen streamed live...

Although I am sick and tired of the Ivan Brothers (although the 6 minute webisode was funny)

Cable providers should offer the option of which game you want to watch...choose whichever one or region is on.

I have used MMoD for at least 5-6 years now. I didn't do it this year, but prior you could sign up like a month early for the 'premium' package (for free) and you got access without waiting in line and it didn't timeout. You could watch any game that wasn't the local broadcast in your area, although this year it appears to be different.

DirecTV pays rather handsomely for the exclusive rights to do this.
