I did a quick google and here are (http://www.radio-info.com/mods/board?Post=255402&Board=sports) the (really farged up) rules:
QuoteFor reference purposes only, here are the TV rules from NFLMedia.com:

Glossary of Terms
Franchised Market - television market (ADI or DMA) that has an NFL franchise (i.e. Buffalo, NY or Phoenix, AZ).
Secondary Blackout Market - television market in the home territory (with station(s) having signal penetration to within 75 miles of the game site) of an NFL franchise that is subject to blackout restrictions.
Early Game - Game with kickoff at 1:05 p.m. (Eastern Time).
Late Game - Game with kickoff at 4:05 or 4:15 p.m. (Eastern Time).

Blackout Policy
To ensure an NFL club's ability to sell all of its game tickets, and to make televised games more attractive to viewers through the presence of sellout crowds, the following policy is observed by the NFL:

For a home game to be aired locally in the franchised market and in any secondary blackout market(s), the game must be sold out 72 hours in advance of kickoff. If the game is not a sellout by the 72 hour cutoff, both the home franchised market and the secondary markets of the carrying network will air an alternate game.

Number of Games in a Market
With regard to the number of NFL games seen in a particular market on a Sunday afternoon, there are three different situations.

1. An NFL franchised market (i.e. New York, Chicago, Dallas, etc.).
On a week when the NFL team (or teams) in a market is on the ROAD Sunday, Monday or Thursday night or Saturday afternoon, the market will receive three Sunday afternoon games... two telecasts by the network with the doubleheader week and one game by the network with the single game week. When an NFL team in the market is playing at HOME on Sunday afternoon, the market will receive two games... one game on FOX and one game on CBS, regardless of which network has the doubleheader week. Unless 1) the home team's assigned telecaster that day (CBS or FOX) is also on the doubleheader network and 2) the game is sold out 72 hours in advance. Then the three games would be the home team's and two other games in the remaining early or late window.

2. All other television markets (including secondary blackout markets).
Network affiliates in these markets will receive three games on Sunday afternoon, two on the doubleheader network (one early and one late) and one game on the single game network (either early or late).

Selection of Games to be Telecast Regionally
By network contract, all team road games must be telecast back to that team's home territory (franchised market and secondary blackout markets).
Other than the above requirement, the televising network is the sole selector of which game(s) will be aired in all markets.

Thanks Ed!  Awesome news.  First sunday of the year I can watch a birds game live with no interuptions.  The Niner and Raider games were on here but my son had flag football games.  Sucks watching after you know the outcome.  Plus no TiVo and digital cable sucks for recording games.

I've been lucky here the past few years.  Last year I think all but 3 or 4 birds games were on local TV.  Same the year before.  I am spoiled as there is a great sports bar about 1/2 mile down the street in a local shopping mall.  Tough getting up at 6:30 HST for a 1:00 EST kickoff and dragging your ass to a sports bar.  You'd be amazed how many guys are tanking beers at 7:00 AM! :o  I say keep the java flowing.

Stockton is in Oakland, so I guess Buck is doing double-duty.  The baseball game is 1pm on Saturday, then the football game is 4:15 on Sunday, so there's enough time to do both...

igy - correct....no games opposite the hometown team at home unless the other station isn't showing games at the alternate time.  For example, if we had a 1pm home game on FOX, there would only be a CBS game at 4pm UNLESS CBS isn't showing any games at 4pm (golf, tennis, whatever), then we would get a game at 1pm on CBS too.  There's never a situation where you don't get any games on a station...

Oh yeah.

I was all prepared to go down there this Sunday as I was convinced we'd get the Raiders/Cowboys game.  Hawaii has a huge Cowboy & Raider contingent.  Believe there's about four or five of us Eagle fans in the state.

We in the UK and those in Europe are getting Jets-Ravens, unless they change it. However, those in Europe WILL BE GETTING the tape of the whole Eagles-Chiefs game Monday night on NASN.

In England, we get the following LIVE:

Sky Sports Extra--a doubleheader every Sunday; the Thanksgiving Day games; the Saturday games late in the season; the playoffs, the Super Bowl and the Pro Bowl.

Channel 5 which is a terrestrial channel--Monday night game and the Sunday night game, once their contract to baseball ends after the World Series and the Super Bowl highlights.

Channel 3 which is a terrestrial channel--Super Bowl LIVE

Selected countries in Europe (not England or Ireland)--get all the games we do but on a channel called NASN (North American Sports Network). Also on NASN, Europe shows two games during the week THAT THEY DIDN'T SHOW ON SUNDAY. Example: They're scheduled to show the Jets-Ravens live on Sunday, but during the week, they'll show the tape of the Eagles-Chiefs game plus another one, in its entirety.

I get NASN here in England and this is the NFL coverage we get:

Countdown (LIVE)
Monday Night Countdown (LIVE)
NFL Access
NFL Live (sometimes LIVE)
NFL Primetime
NFL Draft (LIVE)
Selected Preseason games LIVE

The other things we get on NASN are:

MLB (at least 5 LIVE games a week plus taped games of at least 2 other games); plus LIVE playoffs
NBA(again, at least 5 LIVE games a week); plus LIVE playoffs
NHL--LIVE regular season coverage plus playoffs
College Football--LIVE regular season coverage plus bowl games
College Basketball--LIVE regular season games plus BOTH the NIT and the NCAA tourneys
Canadian Football League--BOTH LIVE and taped games
Arena League--again, BOTH live and taped games
NASCAR--live coverage of all the races
Around the Horn (LIVE)
Pardon the Interruption (LIVE)
MSG Sports--I love it when they show ANY of the NY teams getting beat
Rome is Burning (LIVE)

Channel 5 shows the Stanley Cup Finals, the NBA Finals, and the World Series, all LIVE

You got some Europeans that get into American sports. But I'd say for the most part, NASN is designed with the large American population you have throughout Europe. One of the guys on here, Henchman UK, I've had a few drinks with--he's British and writes for an NFL magazine over here in London. Him and another Eagles fan are coming over to my house on the 9th to watch the Cowboys game. I typically have a full house when the Eagles are in the playoffs.

Speaking of British NFL fandom (http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/sports/12750079.htm):

QuotePosted on Tue, Sep. 27, 2005
London calling NFL

William ''The Refrigerator'' Perry is promoting London's bid to host a regular-season NFL game in 2006.

The former Chicago Bears defensive lineman posed with cheerleaders and did interviews Monday in support of efforts to bring the NFL back to the British capital.

Perry, a member of Chicago's 1985-86 Super Bowl champion team, played for the Bears in the NFL's first international preseason game at Wembley Stadium in 1986. He scored a touchdown on offense as the Bears beat the Dallas Cowboys 17-6 in front of 86,000 fans.

Wembley has been torn down, and a new stadium is scheduled to open on the same site next spring.

''From what I have seen of the new stadium it is going to be one of the greatest in the world, and I know that NFL players would love to be part of a major international event in a venue like this,'' Perry said.

On Sunday, the NFL will play its first regular-season game outside the United States when the Arizona Cardinals face the San Francisco 49ers in Mexico City. The NFL said if that game is successful it would consider taking other regular-season games to other parts of the world.

If the NFL wanted the Mexico City experiment to be successful, maybe they should have considered a game other than Cardinals-49ers...  :-\

The English gave us Manchester United to open the Linc... the least we can give them to open the new Wembley is the Eagles.

It'll probably be two zesty teams. The NFL wouldn't want to showcase a blowout, and no good team is going to want to give up a home game.
Title: Re: Areas getting Eagles/Chiefs
Post by: bobbyinlondon on October 02, 2005, 02:34:28 AM
Of course, according to what happens in the post-season, I think it could either be Bucs-Eagles, or maybe even Colts-Eagles in Wembley. Incidentally, the NFL is giving BOTH the Cards and 49ers financial considerations to make up for the gate receipts both would lose as a result in playing in Mexico.
