Wild Card/Satuday — 1/12/08

I plan to watch the WSU/UCLA game at 11 on Fox Sports, which I can see on Time-Warner cable, and mebbe listen to part of the Seattle/Green Bay game at 1:30, which I can't see on Time Warner. TW's inability to work out an agreement to bring the KAYU-28 broadcast to North Idaho will cost me a last sports event today. I plan to call Verizon Monday to see about its direct-TV satellite offer. I hate to drop local-access TV. But TW has had more than a year to fix this situation. I'm paying too much for cable to miss today's game and the Super Bowl (if I can't find a party to go to). I wonder if the city can do something to force Time Warner to meet its obligation to North Idaho viewers? Either way, it has finally lost this cuss-tomer. Now for your Wild Card ...
