It’s incredibly stupid when you think about it, epsecially when you take into consideration my experiences (both today and previously) trying to find a bar that I can watch the Patriots game at. Today I tried King Cobra, but the story is the same pretty much everywhere. The bars are full of Seahawks fans, and good luck finding a place that has the Sunday Ticket subscription and is willing to change a TV off of the Seahawks game. Even if you do find a place, they are usually only willing or able to put on one additional game, and it becomes a battle of who has more fans there, and who was there first. The few bars with enough TVs to show all the games (Spitfire and Fox Sports) are filled to the brim with, you guessed it, Seahawks fans.

For the record, I don’t have any objection to the fact that local bars are full of Seahawks fans and are primarily showing the local team’s games. That’s a good thing. My issue is with the fact that the local TV stations aren’t allowed to show the other games that the rest of us might care about.

I have been looking around for some kind of fan organization I can join to officially register my displeasure with the whole lack of games thing, but so far I haven’t been able to find anything. I am going to keep looking, and will put up another post if I find something. Until then, if any of you know of such an organization, I’d love to hear about it.
