Anyone know if this game is being shown at any bars in NYC?
If anyone in NYC is planning on going to a bar to watch this game let me know where. I have yet to see the Hoyas play this season and also the PSU starting point guard (Ben Luber) happens to be a family friend, so I'd like to watch.
Thanks.

I don't think anyone responded to your post because this game will not be televised. Not in NY, not in D.C., not on Direct TV - nowhere! Just like the Temple game. I can't believe that between Georgetown, Temple and PSU, all three schools on the East Coast with tons of alumni, etc., that these games are not on TV. It shows how far we've fallen in the eyes of the sports media, but then again, this too will pass when we begin to win more and more games!
Temple is a huge school with a big-time basketball tradition, but funny enough, their following is not all that great. As far as PSU, they're huge with tons of alum everywhere, but Football is all they care about.
So that leaves us, Georgetown, a name brand, and a household name, but we must get back to our roots if we expect to have relatively minor pre-conference games on TV.
The only place to tune in to tomorrow's game will be on the Internet (game updates, Internet radio, chat-room, message board) or on radio if you live in the D.C. area. Let's take care of business against PSU and make sure that in the future games like these are at least available on ESPN Full Court.
(It also wouldn't hurt if Georgetown thought about a video feed over the Internet - I know that this still involves a fair amount of financial sacrifice in terms of camera-men and operators, not to mention TV rights issues, etc., but I don't see why this should be impossible over the next few years. We are, after all, in the 21st Century!)
LET'S GO HOYAS!

I knew that many of them were, but I didn't realize all home football games were. Are there NCAA / TV copyright laws that would prevent us from doing similar things with the basketball team, at least for games that would not otherwise be televised?
GO HOYAS!!! BEAT PSU!
