good luck getting in touch with people on MLK day --> i think you best give up - not a chance a handful of calls is going to change their programming for tomorrow - not exactly a groundswell of support - but i like your energy

Yeah I pretty much have given up. I just figured it was worth a shot if we made enough noise this time then maybe it could help us later. I know the numbers arent necessarily for the right people, but hey you leave enough messages and the message gets heard or so I have seen in previous cases. My last comment on this whole thing is that I heard from a syracuse friend of mine (yeah i admit to having a few) that many syracuse fans are getting together at a bar called proof in nyc to watch the game? I dont know what this means exactly, maybe they think its being carried, but I called the bar and the guy told me they have direct tv that carries different regional networks, so maybe that is how they are getting it. Anyway figure maybe I give that place a shot, if not ill come home and listen on radio. Good luck everyone and go hoyas!

Harbin and Jersey: Who did you email? From that list, I picked out the Director of Network Info, Laurel Daggett.

I emailed one of the directors of media relations, the first one I think. I know that doesnt really make sense and you probably did the right thing in emailing who you did, I just thought that a media relations person would see the benefit of appeasing a boat load of annoyed customers or know who to contact. So well see if we get a response tommorow. If anyone hears back please post it so we can see what the response is. That aside, I suggest calling the office in ct tommorrow and asking to speak to someone on the customer service side of things, they have some type of hotline for complaints, I posted it in an earlier post in this thread. Tell them how you feel and hopefully if enough people call they will realize that they should put more of these games on. It can never hurt to try people. I realize it most likely will go no where, but hey at this point I am optimistic about anything gtown.

I encourage all involved Hoyas to send a quick email expressing your discontent to one of the following:
Director of Network Info: Laurel Daggett ---> laurel.daggett@espn.com
Is it a man or woman? Who knows...
Director of Media Relations: Diane Lamb ---> diane.lamb@espn.com
Thats a lady, I'm pretty sure.

I say we just keep emailing these people. When it comes down to it, at least our voice might be heard on some level and this issue won't be an issue again going forward.
