Next Year: CPTV vs SNY

[phil sampieri]

I do like the one guy's camera work quite a bit.

Spoiled maybe, but all products can be improved. The purpose of a thread like this is feedback. The number of people who feel aspects of CPTV's product is not insubstantial. But almost all want CPTV to succeed in keeping control over the production of UConn Women's basketball.

You may not like it that some of us voice opinions (complaints) about how the product can be improved but that's how life is, people often have different opinions . Marketing departments spend hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars on consumer surveys. Some of us offer our thoughts knowing that Harriet Unger and CPTV are aware of what is discussed here. It doesn't cost them a penny. Of course, that may be all its worth. If so, they can give us change for our two cents.

I am not against people voicing their opinion, I just voiced mine but what I'm alluding to is the constant after every game moaning
about the announcers. I think those who feel that Picozzi and or Culmo are not that good, Harriet and the powers that be have heard
you and others and choose not to change anything. So be it

I think CPTV does a great job, but the benefits of going to a larger audience carrier are what they are. That's all.

Then simply don't read it. No one has any ability to force you to do so.

But there are also losses in doing that, too. People are questioning whether the trade off will be worth the losses.

I actually think they have changed a lil bit... Eric has done a few games, they are calling the game better, Meg is provided replay points etc. BUT we can still use a lil more tweaking

True, but it doesn't make any less annoying.

One word will settle who get the braodcasting rights---MONEY!

My loyalty goes to fellow Boneyarder, Harriet Unger and CPTV. For me, this is a no-brainer.

(Who from SNY will pick up a comment here on the Boneyard about Lauren being called Laura or some similar quirk by a broadcaster?)

I agree. If you send an email to Harriet, you get an answer. Send one to SNY, and furrgit aboutit.

Horn to horn, I don't think it matters all that much who is broadcasting the game. What I appreciate about CPTV is it's not "wham bam thank you ma'am" at the buzzer, and off to the next game. For instance, at the Mens game last night, at half time SNY had to immediately cut to the studio. I would have liked to see them honor Worthy Patterson and Bill Corley at half time...but no. CPTV would never miss one of our girls being inducted. On the plus side, Kara Lawson was good as the color analyst. she didn't feel like she had to talk every minute.
