Time to get Raptors TV.....
if you don't already have it

Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, the folks who asked you to pay for 13 Maple Leafs games last season, will be suggesting that Raptors fans sign on for digital TV in order to watch about 25 of the team's 82 games this season.

Re: Time to get Raptors TV.....
^ yah, I had RaptorsTV for a while, and most of it was pretty lame accept for a few segments, Raptors game in an hour and post-game press conferences were the best, as well as behind the drafts.
man, I don't even have a Rogers digital box, I might have to shell out for Raptors TV, unless anyone knows of a Bell Expressvu hack

Re: Time to get Raptors TV.....
I'll be in Laurier this season anyway so it won't matter - as long as when I come home they show the games on either The Score, TSN, or Sportsnet, then I'm fine |

Re: Time to get Raptors TV.....
SportsNet is really pulling back on basketball, for whatever reason.
If the team makes the playoffs, book it--82 televised games next season, at least 60 national.

Re: Time to get Raptors TV.....
I already have RapsTV, but I don't understand why they don't have all 82 Raps games.
Kind of ironic, if you ask me.

Re: Time to get Raptors TV.....
I will never pay to watch an NBA game on T.V!!! Will never happen, it's not worth it...they are trying to suck out as much money from their fans as they can...to me a team has to show some loyalty to it's fan base...when a team sucks they ask their fans to be loyal...it has to go both ways....T.V should be compensation....it's not like they don't make enough money...this fee is not fair...so i say ---- em.

I'm in the same boat as you, I'm actually from Kitchener but chose instead to go to Ottawa. Damn so many games I'm gonna miss and this includes soccer too....

even with Sportsnet/The Score/TSN ur still technically "paying" seeing as u have to pay extra money on top of regular cable to get those channels.

Re: Time to get Raptors TV.....
RapsTV is a pay channel. For a team that should be building up as much goodwill as possible with its fans, showing 25 games on pay TV and not on regular cable is a bad idea. But that's just me.
