    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Knicks owner James Dolan was not in his customary baseline seat at the Garden last night. And by tonight, Dolan, in a raging feud with his father Charles, may not be in his customary role as Knicks owner.

    The future of James Dolan's role in Cablevision and whether the corporation will sell the Knicks and Rangers is expected to be hashed out today in Palm Beach, Fla., during a big board of directors meeting.

    A Garden spokesman would not comment last night on the agenda for the meeting or whether the Knicks will be put on the block by Cablevision.</div>

    Listening to the game on the radio doesn't get me all pumped. Actually seeing them play has better reactions lol. I want my MSG! [​IMG]

    It actully happened. MSG is now NBA TV minus the Knick games. This really sucks. I'm very dissapointed. For those who have cable (like myself), no Knicks and Wizards on TV tonight. Good thing the next game we have is on Sunday which gives them much more time to discuss. I was looking forward to this game too! Anyway, at least there's ESPN radio. 1050 AM to listen to the game tonight at 7:30 although hardly the same as watching it [​IMG]

    Well I know me and you both have IO digital cable, but I still have MSG for some reason. At least in my room, I do. I gotta check downstairs in the living room.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Choosing to point fingers and assign blame, Time Warner and Cablevision executives let the clock run out, leaving Knicks and Mets fans in the dark.

    Unable to reach agreement on a new contract, the Cablevision-owned MSG Networks (Madison Square Garden Network and Fox Sports New York) were pulled off Time Warner Cable, which services 2.4 million area subscribers, early this morning.</div>

    At least you dont have to watch the Mets anymore. That has to be a plus. j/k. By the way why are so many Knicks fans Mets fans? I dont understand.

    man that way bites.
    I can certainly understand where you are with that problem, this is the first year in a long time that every kings game is televised, for the past few years I have had to rely on the local sports talk am radio station to catch the games.

    I hope you guys can get the games back soon!

    I don't know. It might be because they don't want the Knicks to interfere with the Nets. I wish some channel will pick it up though! On a good note, the Sonics game on Sunday is on NBA TV which is also substituted by MSG so it should be all good on Sunday.

    ^Do you have satellite? I have Time Warner and I couldn't see the game. They showed NBA TV instead.
