I would like to take this opportunity to apologize to my fellow fans for today's Sopcast broadcast. I got a lot of feed back that the stream was really bad today. I had to do a side job this morning. I set up the broadcast last night and left my wife in charge of changing the channel from Philly/Was to Dal/NYG.

Three major things happened......

1. My wife decided to watch her beloved packers on the Dish rather than the cable, so the majority of the Was/Philly game was not broadcast. (She had no idea that she was affecting the broadcast).

2. She forgot to change the channel after the first game. So instead of the Boys first offensive series, we got to see Oak/Chi.

3. I found out at the conclusion of the game that my daughter and her boyfriend were playing Halo online in the other room the whole time the game was on. (Hence the crappy stream).

Once again, I apologize. Things should be back to normal for next week.

I do want to addrees some of the feedback I recieved about the stream. It's one thing to PM me and tell me the quality is bad. It is ENTIRELY DIFFERENT to PM me and call me lame, or tell me how I ruined your weekend because of my awful stream. I do this for free at some expense to myself. Why? Because I want make a contribution to this forum by helping other members out who can't otherwise watch. I don't want to be b****ed out, and called names for my efforts. It's the nature of technology and the internet for things not to work perfect all the time.

Hopefully things will work out better next week. Sorry, I needed to vent!

I will now concluded my longest post ever on CZ. Back to your regularly sheduled programming.

You have nothing to apologize for...

You are doing some cool stuff for fans here. It can't be perfect all of the time...

Whoever did this is classless and should be ashamed of themselves.

Thanks for still doing this for fans who can't watch the game. Who ever left you dumb comments like that need to get a life.

Ignore the dewshes. You're the man.

If someone wants to pay me money for access to my directv account, so that you can watch the DTV feed online, I'm all for it, lol.

As others have said, you have absolutely nothing to apologize for.

Yep. The guy is providing a service free of charge. He's actually attempting to give back to the community... & he gets flamed??? So lame.

Post the names of the people who are giving you problems so that we may stone them to death in the public square.

It is just amazing what you do for all of us. I have watched a couple streams in the past and want to express my deep gratitude. Your generosity has added much happiness to this household in the past. Also, just knowing that if the game won't be broadcast locally that I can always watch it on Sopcast helps me sleep at night. :)

Anyone that gave you hell about the streams can get off their cheap butt and go to a sports bar and watch the game instead. Thanks for helping your fellow fans out.
