Bruins Football Tickets

Directv Customers Get Slashed During Hockey Season

The Patriots with Super Bowl wins in 2001, 2003, and 2004. The Red Sox were champs in 2004 and 2007, and the Boston Celtics coming from last place to win the championship in 2008. This leaves us with the Bruins to be the only team not to bring home a championship thus far. After seeing how well they bet up the Montreal Canadiens in last year's playoffs. I have a feeling that this is the year that Zdeno Chara is drinking beer out of that Stanley Cup. There is just one little problem… I WON'T BE ABLE TO WATCH IT!!!
Here is my story. Earlier this year DirecTV came to me and said… "We have the most sports programming then any of our competitors." Being from Boston I said "Gotta have my sports! Where do I sign up?" So when I first got it I was like, this is Great! I got the NFL Sunday Ticket, and it gave me every football game that played on Sunday. I was able to switch back and forth from the Pats game to check out what else was going on around the NFL. Then I got to thinking, did I just blow $300 to check out scores? I could of done that on ESPN. Unless you are John Madden and have 12 TVs set up in your living room, you can't watch every game. Guess I won't be doing that again next year! So I sucked it up and dished out $300 for nothing.
Now don't get me wrong, I love The Patriots but I bleed Bruins black and gold! Hockey season is my favorite season of the year. Granted they haven't won a championship in a while but I still love them! Here in Boston we are not like those little smelly, greasy, stupid New York weirdoes, were when their team does bad they fire the coach! Anyways… I love hockey, and when you take away my hockey, that when I draw the line!!
Last night was the season opener for the Bruins. I was so excited. I threw on my Patrice Bergeron jersey, ordered a pizza, grabbed some snacks, sat down with my buddies, I turned on the Versus Network and … NOTHING!!!! All I saw was a big DirecTV logo that said " Sorry for the inconvenience but DirecTV no longer carries the Versus Network. WHAT!! Inconvenience? This just wasn't an inconvenience it was an abomination.
So after I stopped crying, I gave my good friends at DirecTV a call. They told me that Comcast owns the Versus Network and they were charging DirecTV too much money to air the network. You mean to tell me, that DirecTV can pay $750 million dollars for that dumb NFL Sunday Ticket but you won't spend the money for Versus? The lady on the phone then tried selling me NHL Center Ice. It's just like the NFL Sunday Ticket but with hockey, but because the Bruins are a local team those games would be "Blacked Out." Some how DirecTV made it so that I couldn't even pay to watch the Bruins.
