How can we get a heads up on this 'CFL on TV' thing?

CFL Talk

I was reading a post from @BomberJunkie which mentioned the sudden, unexpected TV broadcast change that occurred just prior to the recent Calgary at Winnipeg game:

“It was advertised to go to CFL+, not CBS. Even the Bombers staff were unaware of the sudden change based on the help they tried to provide to @MnBlueBomberFan.”

Could we put our over-sized heads together and find a way to get ahead of these sudden CFL broadcast changes in time for our viewing audience to tune in (just asking for a friend)? :beers: :beaver:

The only thing I would watch on CBSSN would be the CFL games, and with all the other “premium sports” channels I would have to pay for but never watch it just doesn’t fit into this retiree’s budget. If I had that much room in my budget I would buy a newer old car to replace my 2004 Saturn.
I don’t think my cable provider would let me sign up for the premium package every June 1st and then cancel every November 25th either.

Thanks for coming to my aid. At the rate that digital science is evolving I may soon not be able to access anything online.
Outside of Forums, I have not come to expect much from cfl.ca, but maybe I’ll be wrong about that in this case; or not

Yes you can do that unless you are on a subscription plan with a minimum term.

Or of course, you could simply access CFL+ for free when games on it or use Pirate Sports Network otherwise.

Try CFL+ tomorrow Friday night for the double-header.

Updates are sometimes in this thread too, but the sudden switch like in that example is most unfortunate.

If I had been watching last Friday night, I would have tried to help as well.

Just get a VPN and for every game you can use a non-North American vpn. VPNs are cheap

Now’s your chance Paolo… where can our US viewers tune in to see tonight’s games?

Tonight’s double-header is on CFL+. It’s always been free.

You have less than one hour to fix your internet device or damn TV, so get to it now if you are not set up yet.

Enjoy the game folks.

I was lucky enough to get disconnected from the TSN app even though I upgraded to the TSN+ one year subscription last month. Apparently it was cancelled but I still got charged. Working through it with their customer support so I’ll have to listen to CJOB for the Bomber game hopefully only this week.

Hang in there @BomberJunkie !!! :beaver:

I’d like to say that our technicians are working on the problem but we don’t have any technicians. Problems we got. Let me know if you want any (problems) and I’ll send them your way. In the meantime, enjoy the game!
