I'll be in Cinci so won't be watching the Tigers take game 2 from whomever they play. Now if Detroit can only get a football team.Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not sure how much the rest of the country will care? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-season football games have scored higher ratings than the world series. Pre-season! So to suggest the nation will all be watching the world series is a stretch. Last years series was the lowest rated ever. Even with the Mets they'll be in the 13-15 range.yea last years world series was kinda low but if the mets get in this series it will draw good ratings. either way, more people will be watching the world series then our game. more people will watch the sunday night movie on another network then watch our game. think about it...you are a casual fan and see a college football game on against a school only known for basketball and one that you probably have no idea where they are located....do you stop and watch? nope.

Oh it'll beat our game ... no doubt. I'm just taking issue over people talking like the World Series is something that the entire nation watches. Attendance may be up at the ballparks but the World Series hasn't broken a 20 share since 1992. The '86 series got a 48 share to last years 19. Even if you take last year out, the last five years have been between 20 and 25. People can talk about cable killing network shares all you want but people still watch football (even though Sunday Night Football is a mistake -- they tried to change a working system -- there is too much competition and family hassle on Sunday night: "we've watched football ALL day honey -- the last eight hours have been football and now I want to watch Desperate Housewives). Does anyone like the new arrangement more? Anyway I'd put the over-under at around a 14 rating for the WS. I'd put the over-under for our game at around 3.0.

WHICH is exactly 3.0 more(on an "outside of hillsborough county" level) than we would've gotten otherwise. 3.0(however many that adds up to) people will all get to see our yellowish/greenish/goldish helmets.

YAY!!!!  : (note: hope we see the green pants the rest of the year....) Correct me if i am wrong (and I probably am),but doesn't a share equal about a million people, roughly? I'd take a 3.0 share any day! The question is though, what will the share of househoulds IN FLORIDA watching the USF game be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
