I'm just hoping the camera angles aren't totally shit like they generally are.

Worst part about hearing that your team is in an outdoor game. Cool in concept, but it always looks like ass when you watch it.

I thought the Lake Tahoe games were amazing.

I don’t like that this game is today instead of tomorrow though, even though my Alma mater is playing in a CFP game tomorrow.

They are calling this the 2025 Winter Classic but they are playing it on New Years Eve. Why aren't they playing this game tomorrow. I'm sorry, but F the College Football Playoff. Also, F NHL Network for taking the only other option away from the CFP and blacking it out for most hockey fans. The NHL scheduling will always be a joke.

So it might actually be on more than a few TVs.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

As always for people complaining -- these events are for the local fans and not for TV. All 3 outdoor games I've attended (WC at the Big House, WC at Nats Park, SS at Navy Stadium) were some of the coolest, most memorable games I've ever been to.

Still, I think they'd prefer to not have a zero TV rating in the States.

Speak for yourself.

I don't care about this format and it's been done to death

-> I actually won't watch it.

The game was becoming a joke in the ratings because of the college football playoff.

My sister is obsessed with the Smashing Pumpkins. My dad jokingly calls them the "Squished Squashes."

This camera angle isn't too bad.

I bet the ratings today are not going to be as good either.

 

[Qurpiz]

How many times can you do the same thing and keep calling it a classic?

 

[GKJ]

The point is they had to do something else because what they had been doing wasn’t working.
