Not only is it an awkward mouthful, it sounds like you're celebrating a score by one of Houston's conference foes. Does it really count if they haven't even played a game there yet, much less a game at all in 3-4 years? On an unrelated note, this isn't that horrendous, The Hornets have TWC Arena, but FOX broadcasts their games, what's next? TWC Arena, presented by CBS?

The_Admiral Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 If I remember correctly, the Bobcats started their own RSN, which Time Warner didn't carry, thus making the first year or two of the Bobcats literally unwatchable for most of Charlotte. As a result, part of the naming-rights deal was that Time Warner would call off its dogs and carry Bobcats games on a local-origination channel of theirs, ending the RSN, and then Fox Sports South picked up the rights later. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bobcats' RSN was carried on Time Warner Cable, but only on digital (not analog). Back then, not many TWC subscribers had digital cable. An aspect that set C-SET apart from similar team-owned channels is that Time Warner Cable did not put the channel on analog cable, instead using it as an attraction to get customers for their digital cable services. A package of 15 Bobcats games produced by C-SET did air on WJZY. C-SET lasted only one NBA season and folded on the day of the 2005 NBA Draft. The lack of analog cable carriage and the resulting poor attendance of the team was seen as a primary reason, as was the lack of other distributors carrying it. Additionally, Time Warner blocked satellite television providers from carrying the channel. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolinas_Sports_Entertainment_Television James Calvin Woods - Son of Verta Jane Holland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don't forget, Philly fans booed Santa, and started the She-said-no chant at Patrick Kane. Not to mention that Philly is infamous for crazy sports fans... It's a joke, calm down. I know that Philly isn't the only place kids would giggle about the FU center... "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."
