It just dissappeared from Fox broadcast. I hope it comes back on, I was enjoying seeing Dallass getting blown out.:laugh:

Switched because game had become "non-competitive". That's what they said. Dallas is an absolute joke of a football team right now.

Oh my, sorry guys I missed that. That is extremely pathetic. I've never heard of a game that got kicked out of coverage because it was a blow out.

Yea, they declaired the Dallas game non-competitve and switched to the Giants/SF game. How funny was that? I'm trying to remember the last time that happened :)

They do it all the time if there's another close game to go to.

Yeah, we aren't Dallas' 'primary' market (with the whole Ravens CBS controversy), so it switches out.

I don't agree with that. yeah maybe they didn't want their ratings to drop, but come on. I can bet anyone 50 bucks that if it was Dallas blowing out the Rams, they would not have switched games.

They don't usually switch over that early.

Dallas sucked so badly that the FCC thought children would get the wrong impression and think that the way the Cowboys played today is how a real team takes care of business.

Exactly right! I was pissed... I wanted to see every second of that blow out! I actually think it was a mistake on their part from a ratings standpoint also... I bet most people in our area would have preferred to continue to see the Pukes get slapped! Every dejected player on the bench, every weak effort by Witten, every bad throw by Brad, every blown deep coverage, was absolutely beautiful! I want to see it all again!

I can guarantee you that if Dallas was winning by that same score, they would have played the game to its conclusion.
