Time Warner Fail

So has anyone gotten an explanation from Time Warner Cable on why the game was switched off in the overtime period in favor of a monster truck show? My guess is they only rented the satellite feed for 2.5 hours, and it cut off. Hopefully this will be the one and only season games are shown on this network, particularly given that Time Warner has refused to allow DirecTV or Dish to carry the games.

My Time Warner channel 311 left the game for about a minute or so, then came to the game through the finish.

Same with the HD channel. It had a scrolling message about technical difficulties and the the game came back on.

Crime Warner is a joke. Luckily they have a monopoly on Internet or I'd never deal with them ever again.

I've got a theory that somewhere in the transmission facilty operations center at Time Warner is an Ohio St. or Wright St. alum "accidentally" making these mistakes. What was really bad was that i was streaming the audio on my phone when we lost the signal and I knew the audio on the phone was at least a few minutes behind when my sister called me to tell me how sorry she was UD lost (even ESPN sportstracker she was using was ahead of the iPhone audio)....That's how i found out they lost right before DP was hitting that 3 at the end of OT....

I hate to ask, but I saw Pierre dribble the ball off his foot, they scored, and we were still up two. Then the picture went off, and by the time I got the radio on the score was tied and we were going for a last shot, which we apparently took with 8 seconds left in the game. How did we turn the ball over the second time with the two point lead?

Khari panicked against the press and threw the ball to nobody, GW got the ball and made a layup plus a foul. It was excruciating. Frosh mistakes.
