I have emailed FOX every Saturday that they have aired our games and now shown them on the west coast. This Saturday is no exception. However, this time I decided to email the local station. If you like it please copy it and do the same in your area.
Hello,
I know you guys probably have little to no control over what games are broadcast on your channel on Fox's Saturday baseball. However, I just wanted to let you know how upset baseball fans across the country are with FOX. In this day and age not everyone who lives in a city is a fan of the team in their city or region. For example, my favorite team plays 1,500 miles from Seattle. Alot of baseball fans pay extra money for cable subscriptions that allow them to watch out of market games. FOX comes along once a week and hoards all the good games and only broadcasts them in certain areas. Therefore, all the money I pay to watch my favorite team is wasted pretty much every Saturday b/c of FOX. I could care less about the Yankees and Angels game this Saturday. I will never watch a FOX Saturday game b/c of their policy. I just want you to know that I am not the only one who feels this way either. The Internet baseball community is full of FOX haters like myself. If FOX would just pick ONE GAME a week and air it the problem could be solved. I'm sure nothing will ever change with this and FOX will continue to prove to baseball fans that they don't care about the game or the fans. Like I said, I know you have little or nothing to do with this problem, but I have emailed the national FOX company numerous times and my email probably gets trashed as fast as it enters their inbox. I'm sorry to waste your time but I can sleep better at night having done this.
Thank you,
Dan.
