The Seahawks-49ers game on Amazon Prime must be available to both teams' hometown markets on a local channel for those who don't have a subscription. Go to FOX13 Seattle and get the same broadcast with Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit at 5 p.m. The station will have its own pre-game show beginning an hour earlier.
ICYMI, it appears COX-APOLLO owned KIRO7 in Seattle has cut almost a dozen staff as cutbacks across the company reportedly continue. The only names confirmed so far are Sports DIrector Chris Francis, son of longtime NBC correspondent Fred Francis, and his producer, Chris Swanson, who formerly worked for me at the old Northwest Cable News. No word on how KIRO will cover sports in the market going forward, with the Mariners leading the AL West, the Seahawks and UW football coming soon, not to mention the Kraken's fourth hockey season. Gonna be interesting to watch. I already notice KOMO's weekend news, where the news anchor reads just a minute or two of sports. Nico Tamurian is the station's only sports reporter/anchor right now.

I seem to recall Thursday night games being on free TV last year as well.
ReplyDeleteFor sure, but they sometimes go to the station who makes a deal to do it. I seem to remember KING have one last year. People still get confused about finding games that are streamed exclusively.
