single game of Big 12 basketball era after about 2001 was on the standard tier of cable TV. And for the few years prior to that, only 1, maybe 2, per season were not.

Now, as you say, every game is available somewhere these days. But in you own words, "...who really wants to watch..." is different that anyone can easily watch.

Flipping on MetroSports (KC) or FSMW (about everywhere else) was easier than streaming.


I don't feel sorry for people who say/think they can't get the games. Because you are right, they can if they want to. BUT it is an absolute fact that it was easier to get them before.

Looks like 6 of the 12 non conf games will be on TV. (nm) - Uncle John MU - 10/30 10:33:40
     All the games (sans exhibition) will be broadcast - WildCard MU - 10/30 18:12:33
          Is SEC Network + that is the stream correct - Legendary50 UT - 10/31 07:39:11
               CBSSN (nm) - phrejd MU - 10/31 11:02:44
     I thought joining the sec was supposed to fix this - Jeff85 MU - 10/30 14:47:08
          It has. Maybe I'm misremembering but it seems like before - tgr MU - 10/30 15:30:40
               The Time Warner thing was an issue in KC, but back then - alwaysright MU - 10/30 18:12:01
          I saw it coming. I live in Illinois and when the Illini went - Uncle John MU - 10/30 15:15:36
          Nope. SECN is good for football but bad for basketball - alwaysright MU - 10/30 14:52:05
               it’s really no different for the home games. - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/30 14:57:41
                    It is available, as I noted. But it isn't as good - alwaysright MU - 10/30 17:58:36
                         why isn’t it as good? - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/30 19:03:19
                              No, it’s slower to load and access. - alwaysright MU - 10/30 19:21:58
                                   Alexa, tune to the Mizzou Tigers game on ESPN app. - WildCard MU - 10/31 18:02:38
                                   Still takes me 1 click - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/30 19:23:37
                                        No way you are 1-click streaming. It’s 2 clicks to even - alwaysright MU - 10/30 21:31:22
                                             i Have YouTubeTV - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/30 21:45:03

                                                       As long as it’s on an ESPN channel - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/31 08:37:41
                                                  I use Hulu on a Roku. Your perception of a click is curious. - alwaysright MU - 10/30 21:49:48
                                                       it’s definitely better than FSMW - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/30 21:56:12
                                                            You’re arguing an altered point. Watching a normal - alwaysright MU - 10/31 11:59:50
                                                                 how is FSMW better? - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/31 12:04:22
                                                                      Better announcers. Better equipment used to broadcast. - alwaysright MU - 10/31 12:13:05
                                                                           I haven’t had any of the issues with controls or buffering - wu-tangtiger MU - 10/31 12:38:42
