TAR 19 Scheduling-Airing Times-Delays

<< < (11/22) > >>

Mister RC:
Basically, everyone is "screwed" in terms of an early TAR start time.  Steelers vs. Patriots = a fleet of penalties. So 100% delay (penalties make games longer than normal).  However, probably not a 75 minute delay.  Keep in mind that all the late CBS games have to end before they start 60 Minutes during a National/Network double-header.

So, according to CBS Sports, TAR will be delayed nationally about three more times (for football this season, hoops and golf not until TAR20).  That does include the finale.  Meant to post this earlier, but I am still in the battle against procrastination (and whatever else). Should be over in about a week or so lol!

In brief, nothing the next two weeks (save for regional late games for the fans' local teams, but then everyone's affected on 11/20, 11/27 and then 12/11.

CBS Eye-lert says:

--- Quote ---Revised start times for tonight's CBS programs: 60 Minutes (7:29pm ET), The Amazing Race (8:29pm ET), The Good Wife (9:29pm ET) and CSI: Miami (10:29pm ET) due to CBS Sports live coverage of the NFL.

First, the U.S. returns to standard time on Saturday night-Sunday morning at 3:00 a.m. DST, 2:00 a.m. standard time in each local time zone. (So does Canada, btw.)

Second, that means for our international friends outside of North America, the show airs one hour later.

Finally, FOX has the doubleheader this week. CBS has two late games, Denver at Oakland and Cincinnati at Tennessee. Markets currently shown as getting the single CBS game in late afternoon, and possibly dealing with overruns, are: most of South Dakota and parts of Nebraska, metro Dallas market, metro New Orleans market, metro Tampa market, metro Atlanta and all of north Georgia, the metro D.C. and Baltimore markets, (which include parts of Virginia, West Virginia, and much of Maryland, and a large are covering most of Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana.

Prophet:
Doesn't our usual feed originate out of Tampa? For some reason Tampa keeps seeing Denver games which are always in the later slot. I can't imagine why they keep showing those :lol3:

(Atlanta keeps getting that game too peach)

theschnauzers:
Both Tampa and Atlanta are home markets for NFL teams in the National Football Conference. Under the rules the NFL has in place with CBS and FOX, both the FOX and CBS station are limited to one game when there is no sellout at the stadium within 72 hours of the kickoff. And if the home team is away, then that game has to be aired; what usually happens is that the other channel carries a game that does not air against the home team's game.
When there is no sellout, then the local station of the network with the doubleheader can only air one game, and that's why the506 weekly maps may have some local areas in gray.
