    We just went through same problem with local Fox/NBC channel. There was a major organization of Redskin fans to vote for showing Redskin/49ers vs. Cowboys/Eagles.

    Do to mobilization of Redskin nation we will get to see the game. Local Fox and NBC websites said they heard LOUD and clear from Redskin fans.

    TK...I sent an email as well from viewpoint of advertiser.
    I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die
    of natural causes.

    FYI-I'm on the eastern shore right, with the same problem. Fortunately, I can tune in to CH95 (WTTG) on Comcast to catch the DC broadcast and see the game. Our regular FOX5 is showing the Dallas/Philly game.
    I believe in the Redskins, therefore I'm the enemy.

    Thanks Gary. You're the man.

    What did you guys out there do to get them to switch over?

    Who's up for it?
    Are you sure they will be airing the game?

    You obviously can never know these days.

    But I'm up for it. I get off work at 2 tomorrow so.. I could probably head out there shortly after that.

    Any progress known at all? I'm about to die with the worry of not seeing the game.

    Like I said earlier, if you really want to see the game, go to a sports bar.
    I know it sucks, but at least you will see it.
