Giants vs. Jets broadcast question

blueblood'11 : 8/22/2014 7:20 am
Giants usually broadcast their preseason games on WNBC but my guide is not showing it will be broadcast on that network. I can't find the telecast anywhere on my guide or even if it will be broadcast on a station I can watch it on.

I realize it's a Jet home game and can't imagine why beings it is a preseason game broadcast restrictions would apply. Does anyone know what network will be carrying the game.

My guide is showing the local NY CBS

Does that mean we get to listen to Greg Buttle?

That sucks. And it also explains why I won't get to see the game. I live in the Lehigh Valley and my cable provider while it gets WNBC out of NewYork it doesn't get WCBS. You would think NFL network would carry the live broadcast but no such luck. I'll have to wait to see them replay it. I would have liked to see the game live. I guess I'll just follow it on BBI.

Go to Giants.com and listen to the radio broadcast.

When the Jets and Giants play each preseason, the "home team" does the broadcast. It's been that way for a while. They do not do separate telecasts. Last year, the game was on WNBC so this year its on WCBS.

This is strictly a local broadcast as the national CBS station is airing a game live tonight (Oakland vs. Green Bay) and they get the exclusive over the other networks.
Oh crap

Greg "Victor Cruz once played for the Jets" Buttle

Buttle is outstanding.
Hopefully Washington pulls a Victor Cruz

and Buttle can say he was on the Jets practice squad too.
