January 26, 201016 yr UGH, why do they have to do that stuff when I'm in class? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000RZDBM2?ie=UTF8&tag=marlinsbaseballc&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000RZDBM2
January 26, 201016 yr UGH, why do they have to do that stuff when I'm in class? I know right... sigh, i will be missing those games.
January 26, 201016 yr Author I wish there was someway for me to watch all this, being out of state. I watch it from New York with DirecTV and the add-on Sports Pack that gives all the FSN's.
January 27, 201016 yr I knew it was a good idea to schedule all my classes in the very early morning!
January 28, 201016 yr I wish there was someway for me to watch all this, being out of state. There is....subscribe to DirecTV and then get the FOX Sports Package, with all 26 (or is it 27 ?) regional channels. These programs are not blacked out.
January 29, 201016 yr On a separate note, it appears that FOX will select three Marlins games to air on the Saturday Game of the Week. June 5: FLA @ NYM 4:10 PM July 3: FLA @ ATL TBD August 28: FLA @ ATL 4:10 PM FOX will air some Saturday games in primetime, but I don't think July 3rd was a date selected for primetime Saturday Games of the Week. That puts us up to 153 televised games in 2010.

I sure hope this town starts to get Marlinsmania and go to the games.
January 29, 201016 yr Did they change the original time for these games ? These may already be games that were going to be televised.

I sure hope this town starts to get Marlinsmania and go to the games. I noticed they were all away games, but for a different reason. I like being at nationally televised games. Better atmosphere. There are 3 major reasons why your perception of them being away games is wrong. Saturday games are not empty stadium games. They are the biggest draws of the week because of the Super Saturday attractions and really pick up those average attendance figures. Add in that they are vs the Mets and the Braves makes them even bigger draws. Finally, nationally televised games do draw better here than other games. It's the place to be seen, a very important factor in South Florida.
February 1, 201016 yr How many games on average does FSN Florida Air? 150. Last year we actually had 155 on FSN/Sun because the Rays did 5 of the games of those series and that didn't count against us.
February 7, 201016 yr Hey guys, I hate to bring this old topic back up but i didnt want to start a new one. I know the first post states the 150 game schedule will be released at a later date. When is that normally?

When is that normally? That's a crapshoot. Last year it came out on March 31st and the year before on February 12th. Cape said that the reason it came out so late last year was before the Heat and Panthers were in playoff contention and they had to wait to see how that shaped out.
March 16, 201016 yr I'm bumping this because I think it's still relevant. The first broadcasted game is tomorrow. If this is not allowed, then sorry :$
March 16, 201016 yr According to Comcast TV Guide, MLB Network is going to televise Florida vs Atlanta in half an hour.
