No KC-LA game tonight (9/28)--Cox RI has locked out everyone with the Shootout package.
They're blaming InDemand, who I'm sure will in turn blame Cox.
It NEVER ends---has there EVER been a league more difficult to follow than MLS??????

Lucky U!
--Cox Ct/Ri/South Mass. is up in the air for Wednesday, and showed NOTHING tonight.
I've been told it all depends on what someone named "Bonnie" can do to expedite the IT coding, etc.
How in god's name can this game gain a following in the US when an average Shootout-purchasing viewer gets ganked on such a simple evening of viewing futbol?????

Autogolazo, I subscribe to Cox here in San Diego. When I was having problems a month or so ago with the Shootout package, I emialed to the general manager stating my distress. He in turn got me in contact with the "head sports package" guy, who took my case under his personal wing. Since then we've been in constant contact to try to make it all work, and for the most part, it has. The guy even has been callling me with the playoff schedule and numbers, just so I can be ready to tape the game if I can't be at the tv live, trying to figure it all out at the last minute.
My suggestion: go to the top!!!!! Maybe Cox in RI has the same type of customer service as Cox here in San Diego does.
Good luck.

Forget cable.
Get a Dish.
You'll be glad you did.

When the dish brings me high speed internet access over coaxal cable, I'll gladly be there.
Until then, I'll take my digital cable and RoadRunner.

God bless BigSoccer's moderators. Can't have any profaneness here. (Unless it is moderator-generated ...)
