Super League Predictions
They screwed the pooch by making the move to the CW. People who watch the CW are not the same people who watch golf, for the most part.
The tournaments on Youtube were fine; they showed lots of shots, they had good graphics, no commercials. I really enjoyed watching it on Youtube.
I have no idea why they thought the move to the CW would be a good one. I think they really made the wrong call.

I think they felt the need to show they could get some outlet to televise them and could get some sponsors...I agree, wrong call at this time...
I sent a question to YTTV and to the station. You'd think the station would do whatever it has to to get on YTTV.
I'm thinking this LIV thing is going to fizzle out in the not-too-distant future.
It's now the Pooper League. You are all gonna have to deal with the big bad meanies of the PGA
The broadcast ratings are in the toilet......and getting worse.
If the league folds, do they behead all the players?

Nope...Just the guy who is the "public face" of LIV...
Do the local affiliates have to pony up, I e. it cost more to run LIV vs reruns of your local fishing guide or infomercials, etc
ode On February 14, 2023, the network said its LIV Golf coverage would be carried in 100% of U.S. media markets. However, as existing contracts only obligate CW affiliates to air prime time programming, some of them have declined to carry LIV coverage. In particular among the refraining stations are the eight CW stations owned by CBS News and Stations, ostensibly due to CBS Sports' longstanding partnership with the competing PGA Tour. In many of the affected markets, LIV coverage will air on a Nexstar-owned station or subchannel, or on another station not connected with The CW or Nexstar.[

Par4QC I checked all of the sub channels and all other available possibilities on DirecTV. Nothing. Ours is owned by Tegna, Inc., which apparently also owns the local ABC affiliate.
There is a station available on DirecTV that carries it, but apparently it must be acquired through an additional package added to what I currently have. Not gonna pay extra to see it. If CW doesn't want me to watch them, I won't.
johnnydoom from what I've seen you are not missing much, but it sucks you don't have the option to make up your own mind. Seems more like dumb bad luck based on where you "liv"e
wow picking sides in that feud, it's like choosing between a lifetime of IBD diarrhea vs a colostomy bag
I guess I have to side with the guy who turned down the known and obvious blood money.
